Over the last couple of days, I've managed to successfully replace the glass and bezel on the tacho from my Triumph 650.
Even managed to smoothly roll the bezel edge over. :)
Now I just need to find the correct speedo, and fit that.

Nicely done. :thumb Can I asked where you sourced the bezel from? I've had some very poor quality ones in the past.

It was an eBay set I took a chance on, and it worked out ok.

If I was making the tool again, I'd start with thicker aluminium to make the holder. Just too close to the chuck jaws for comfort! (The ally I used was an old steering wheel boss from an MGB, I think.)
Lathe was slowly turned by hand.

Thanks for that. :thumb2
