Does anyone have a nice clean image of the dial of an Ashcroft 1279 pressure gage, that can be used as a decal? Range doesn't matter. All I can find on the internet are angled images.
TIA.

Ok,... far from perfect but I made my own. Looks halfway decent since it's just for show and tell.

I was asked in a private message if I would be willing to share the image I used to make this dial. I applied this as a decal.

@cbenner, I noticed that they had 2D drawings on their website
I took one of those and edited the image with Illustrator to get a dial, might not be 100% correct or even useful for you but was fun to edit a bit.
Thanks for sharing @-niels-
I hadn't even thought much about this in the last 5 years. I was only playing with it for the fun and practice. But these look like they might be even better than a cheesy jpeg pulled from Google.

Hah, didn't even notice the original post was from 2012. 
This isn't that much better, but it is at a proper angle.
The 2D was of the completed model, not just the dial so there is some left-over geometry that shouldn't be there.
(notice the 2 lower screws that are partially obscured)
Didn't feel like cleaning it up that far, this was done pretty quick (10~15 min), and i also didn't add any numbers.
The drawback of imported pdf's is that the vectors are all messed up, so no easy editing.
