Hi
Unfortunately, you aren't going to find a Tenite escutcheon that isn't warped to some degree. I've wondered myself how one of these would look with an escutcheon made of wood. It would take a bit of work...but, I believe, it could be done. (I have a 41-245 with no escutcheon, and a 41-246 with a warped escutcheon.)
No name-calling here...I think almost all of us have damaged or destroyed a dial scale at some time or another...but now you know that etech's fix for cleaning dial scales with mineral spirits only applies to the translucent amber plastic dial scales, not to the glass scales...
Inkjet and laser printers do not print in white. There are specialty printers, made by ALPS, that do. These are expensive, however.
