DaveThis may show how cheap of a guy I am, but if the annular space between the carbonfiber and the insrument is not more than an eight of an inch why not trim the loose hairs of the fiber with an new xacto knife and run a small neat bead of black silicon caulk around each one. I would think that that would kill the translucent edge reflection also. And only $6 spent.Joe Horton,Coopersburg, PA. ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- From: Dave Dunwoodie <ddunw...@fnwusers.com> To: kr...@mylist.net Subject: KR> Trim Rings List-Post: krnet@list.krnet.org Date: Thu, 20 Jan 2011 18:38:23 -0500
When all you get are blank stares when you ask about a bolt, you go to the KR list, and here I am!!! I built a new panel for my KR2 using aluminum, covered by carbon fiber for the face. It is VERY pretty, however because the CF is on top of the instruments, one can see the rough edges of the holes cut into the CF. I have been searching for months to find a company (or someone) that can cut some simple trim rings out of plastic, aluminum, etc. I'm coming up dry. In a nutshell, the rings would be 2.25 or 3.125 ID, and about 1/8" wide, and maybe a max. of 1/16" thick. Just precision cut rings out of some cheap, black plastic would be excellent! Someone, somewhere knows of someone, somewhere, that can make nice cuts in plastic that will give the panel the final touches. Just simple rings that can be glued to the CF and cover the rough edges in it is all that I'm trying to do. Can anybody help me? Thanks! Also, if anybody needs to see the pictures of where we are right now, please advise and I'll send them to you.
