Hei,

Att first a happy newyear to all of you!

For my Fokker G.1 and Fokker T.8W project I am in need for some vintage instrument casings. From what I understand is that these casing were a standard that were used by several instrument manufactures.
But let me try to explane which casings I need. The image attached showes the instrument panel of the Fkker T.8. I marked 2 instruments with a red line, the left one is a direction finder, the right one a cylinderhead temperature indicator. I need casings like the one used by the direction finder. I know that the also fit to the temperature indicator and that is what I need for my G.1 pane!. I have seen several photos of temperature indicators with casings like the DF indicator but so far did not manage the the casings.
Any leads to such casings will be highly appriciated!!

Best regards,

Mathieu.

Not sure if these folks have any German stuff, but they do have an inventory going back to WWII.
