I made a new cork gasket for the gauge cluster for my car a while back. I originally made a paper template and started out to cut the cork by hand. Then, I remembered that my wife has a laser cutter/engraver. It made short work of the gasket and it came out perfect.

I’m going to make one for BigKev. Let me know if you need one. I have enough leftover cork to make few. It’s leftover cork so the price will just be the priority mail cost.

I should have added that if you have a laser cutter of your own, I’d me happy to send the file to anyone who wants it.

What model cutter?

She has an Xtool D2 Pro….I got it for her about a year ago, but that model has now been discontinued. It works pretty well. She hasn’t used it very a lot and is still learning.

EDIT….its an Xtool D1 Pro, not 2

Thanks Don, greatly appreciated. I have some paper gasket sheet arriving today so I can try to make the other two paper gaskets as well.

Also I discovered the glass in mine has been etched by dirt and debris over the years. Luckily the "Dallas Zone office" has the NOS glass in stock, or I would have had a local glass place cut a replacement. The 115-c uses plain (unpainted) glass, so that a fairly easy part to remedy.
