A Bf 109 panel is an aircraft part that was manufactured according to the specifications given at the Messerschmitt blueprints. This simple it is.

Though he already had a panel (seen in the last photo) that was made in Germany, he decided to replace it because of its serious inaccuracy issues. I made the main panel from 30-layer 15 mm thick plywo...

I was offered this indicator. So I do not have closeup photos of the dial face. But I will ask. Thank you.
