Great work Allan as usual. Wow, Bill’s gauges were in rough shape and you definitely had your work cut out for you.

It always amazes me how you transform almost scrap into works of art Allan.
Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.

A lot of work goes into returning gauges to pristine condition. Every part is stripped and rebuilt from the ground up.
