I'm trying to find another paper dial for my porch thermometer.
As you can see its past its best.
I've tried the circle chart on blocklayer but i cant get the segments to match.

If anyone can work that out and email me a copy so I can print it, I would be grateful.
It's 120 mm diameter. The total blank area between the two extremes is a quarter segment of the entire face.

If Dave can't sort, I'm not a graphic designer, but am a designer and have the packages that would make this a very quick job.

While on the subject of graphics, I have yet another whinge about computers and things today :eusa-whistle:

I have an image that is 160 mm across. I put it in the copier, no computer involved. I tell it to print 2 copies.

Both copies come out of the machine at 166 mm.
W.TF ??????????????
