I made a new needle by sculpting the spine of a plastic disposable knife. A little dab of epoxy to bed it in...

Take pot luck.

Or get one printed? https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2527039" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

In both cases, shaft diameter will be important to ascertain.

Thanks for suggestions folks.
From a plastic knife to 3D printing. I'm trying the knife first

[jacko1967]

Hi can you post how you get on with the plastic knife please I'd like to know why mine is all over the place cheers

Mine is accurate up to 50mph. When it reads 70 on the gauge, its actually more like 65.
