Can anyone help me find this escutcheon?
It's current dimensions are ~ 11 1/2" x 9 1/2" at the mounting ears.
At this point I'm willing to pay pretty well for one. The TV is getting closer and closer to finished, but I can't put it back in the case till I find one of these. TIA -- Illigitimus non-tatum carborundum. Don't let the *******s wear you down! |

A very crude drawing with approximate dimensions (except for mounting ear centers, which I got from the TV cabinet). Anyone that can make one? Find one? Conjure one up from the ether? |

Probably more accurately called a bezel. Hey Blacksmith, can you help her out? Your replacement parts are awesome, almost like making something from nothing. Tom "Brenda Ann" wrote in message ...

Wow, that's too far gone to make a mold and cast a replica. You might have
to make a new one out of wood (or whatever) and paint it. What do modelmakers use -- balsa? Foam plastic? A long shot, but I wonder if this could be re-bent if you heat it with a heat gun. Many old plastics (including the dreaded Tenite) won't re-soften, but you haven't got much to lose. Phil |

I'm probably all wet, but that original's so warped, I don't see how you
could make a mold from it. You could make a full-scale model, then make a mold from the model, then cast a repro from the mold. But in that case, why not just use the model as your one-off repro? I can't imagine there would be a big consumer demand for more of these . . . . Phil "hifi-tek" wrote in message m... Probably more accurately called a bezel. Hey Blacksmith, can you help her out?
