Hi guys!I really need your help!Some days ago I received, from Max, 2 faceplates printed on plastic; they are good but unfortunatly they are really thin (less than 1mm). So I need to paste them to a more thick part in plexiglass. This is way I need your help, I really need some good pictures (and OF COURSE measures) of the tape decks, front and side pictures in order to understand how I have to work on plexiglass!
I append some pictures to make you understand my situation! I think that tape decks should be something like: 12,5 X 8 cm and 4mm (thickness).
Thank you guys!!
Andrea

Adam, you need to lay the metric side of the tape measure perfectly flat on the door and post the actual measurements. Those pictures don't really help because of the perspective and the curved tape measure. ;-)

Pictures are great Adam!!They really give me a general idea of how the faceplates look and how much they are thick!Thank you very much!
Anyway, looking at their measure, I would assume they are something like: 12,5 X 7,3 cm and I guess 0,3 cm (thickness)? Right?
Looking at them when they are in the closed position, they are at the same "level" of the rectangular parts next to them and of the same size (7,3 cm), right?!
I'm sorry for my bad english, but it becomes difficult to talk with you about technical problems using this foreign language!!

Life is so busy that I forget to do things for you guys! I figured if I want help from other people, I have to help out where I can too ;).


I forgot that he is in Metric land and I could have set my caliper to read mm, but didn't :dunce:

Haha... You are correct. I realized that after uploading the pics. That's why I asked that if He needed more pics, I'd retake them again. I was getting ready for bed and ran out to take the pics quickly. Sloppy work indeed. Thanks Joe ;-)

I can probably do a high resolution scan and email it to you. Hard part will be remembering to bring the cassette doors in to work to scan them! :lol:
