I would like to build an analog volume meter (moving needle
type) using moving needle gauges like this

scavenged from a dead mixer's VU meter.

Why do you need this, or think you need this? It might look nice, but will

And if you really need an actual VU meter, you won't find it on too many
consoles being scavenged these days, sad to say.
