...Unless you are the kind who really loves a good cannon... One of those "this is really stupid, there is no reason to do this" things...but hopefully finishing one project I didn't need to finish makes up, somehow, for the others I still need to. I started with an 8k chinese stepper tach, cut off the leds/switches, trimmed the plastic Veglia frame (which provided a snug fit to the stepper motor...locate the mounting holes to the original dial, splice about 6 wires to replace the PCB I cut/drilled away, bore out the 0,6mm shaft of the indicator needle to fit the new shaft, and voila ! Something to go into the closet, probably
