Cardboard Yoke Cover

Recommended Posts

Hey all, decided to spruce up the interior of my '67 F and one thing I'm having trouble sourcing is the cardboard central yoke cover which would have originally framed the 8DAY clock. I'm servicing the AstroTech LC-2 by replacing the LCD, mostly for the fun of it, but the cardboard cover is torn at the bottom right. While I could probably fabricate something, wondering if they're still sold?

Sheet metal honestly would be easier to fabricate. The piece which is on there looks machine made, so I'm curious if it was something which was sold for a time. I guess it's off to the laser cutters I go!

Why do you need a laser cutter?  Get some 0.090" aluminum and any combination of a drill press, Dremel tool, and hand files and make the part.  It is not that difficult.
