Hi John. Yes I have a Lathe and lots of Friends without one...... Now I start to wander, are they Friends because they like my pleasant character, ore is it just because of my Lathe........... :)
Hallo "Snakecharner" I'm located in the Netherlands (if that is a problem) But We are in luck, If you reed the commands made by "Brianna Jomen" He is specialized in crimping all kind of bezels mostly German and English. Maybe you could contact him,
They have a machine that presses the bezel on. a really good speedometer repair house will have one too. I have one but mine is mechanical in design. It uses a chain with a crank to turn it. you set the instrument on the opposite platform and crank the handle. I use it for many different gauges with crimped on bezels but mostly German and English. Can not use it to remove the bezel tho. :)
It works doesn't it? A press tool may have been used originally, but for production speed is needed for efficiency. For repair and restoration 60 years later after the factory disappeared, this method is perfectly acceptable and I doubt anyone could see any difference.
Great 👍 job. Tony
Nice job. What lathe are you using?
I have a repair to do on a veglia tacho gauge for my morini 3.5.
Maybe I will give it a go one day
Thanks 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Yes - we all have a lathe don't we!

Every home should have one.
Is the tool that looks like it has been turned from hexagon bar rotating, or just turned from the hex ?
Brilliant ! Thank you ! (zie ik daar een AMC twin carter op de grond?)
Your welcome :) (Well spotted, deze waren bestemd voor mijn 750cc project met een 90graden verzette krukas) th-cam.com/video/9f1zwjsG96w/w-d-xo.html
@@61kaaskop zeer interessant. De video commentaar is zeer summier ;-) Is dit wat geworden ? Ik ben fan van twins, en zeker 650 later model.
Are you in the UK by any chance? I am having difficulty compressing the sealing ring on my new BMW R75/5 Motometer to refit a new bezel and need help.

61kaaskop Thank you, I am going to see if I can make myself a simple press first. Failing that I will try to locate your contact. Regards, Chris.
Lame.
that is not how you do it.
but I admire your effort.
That's exactly how he does it! It's remarkable. How did the factory do it?
