Atwater Kent 206

Was the dial lens hard to make?
Also enjoyed your story radioroslyn.
Thanks.With the lens it came out OK from the second attempt. The first piece of plastic was rigid no matter how much heat was applied. The second was pretty flexible with a heat gun. I made primitive form  and it came out half way decent. Had to thin the sides with a file to make snug fit and polish the whole thing on the wheel prior to assembly.
