Thanks to all for the links. Several look promising. I assume that I must obviously remove the dial from the metal hub by drilling out the rivets. And I assume the dial is initially flat and gets its curved shape from the metal hub. Mark Oppat said that his reproduction dials are made from .020 ga paper phenolic (of course, the originals could have been something else). What I have read so far: BE VERY GENTLE!
