Exacerbated by the lack of binnacles and the high prices I have sorted out getting some cast. The first picture is of the reproduced binnacle having not been drilled or polished.
The one I sent for them to copy like all the ones I have are lacking definition on the top of the Greeves logo,
probably due to excessive polishing . One way around that would be to get rid of it and stick on the Greeves battery box badges that are identical.
In terms of shrinkage the two look the same size when placed on top of each other.
I am sending this one back to get it drilled and polished and a fixed price.
Even if they are not identical to the original I am sure they will be near enough and certainly a good way of mounting a speedometer, particularly the replica smiths if you do not have the rear speedometer drive.
