[R-390] Plastic Window

Tue, 18 Feb 2003 13:46:29 -0500

I assume this is about the plastic window for the Veeder Root counter.  If
so, Dave Medley may have some.

The plastic from CD jewel cases is rather brittle.  If you're not a purist,
you can make decent replacement dial "glasses" from blister packaging.  Some
is much thicker and clearer than others, so pick 'n choose.  You just cut it
with a pair of scissors.  Once in place, it looks like what's supposed to be
there.  It will never break or crack.  OK, if a bulb is right on it, maybe
it will melt, but not likely.
