Speedo needle -3D print them?

[Pyeshop]

Have seen a few people 3D print a few bits and bobs on here...has anybody looked into printing the speedo needles?
Just bought an MPH speedo for my Swedish bus, but the needle didn't survive the journey to me
Cheers.

Now that sounds a good idea, mines fubarred too. Superglued together and still stuck :shock:

Same here, didn't survive the journey, but I was lead to believe that installing the needle is quite technical, just super glue it, you won't notice.

I would if there was anything left to glue! Currently rocking piece of bamboo kebab stick :shock:

I have a couple of speedos for sale. You don't sound too far away so it would save it getting damaged in the post.

Spent the morning in the shed and made one, very pleased with it! Can hardly tell it's not original.

They're a bit fiddly for your average "home" 3D printer, the resolution on those isn't so great. Cocktail sticks forever! Or watch hands, cocktail straws, bits of old twig...Ah, it'll be fine.
