If somone could lend me a original I know I could make few fairly easily! I want to get the slots the correct size in the face which I can get laser cut and I know the case is deeper than a standard smiths/jaeger pressure gauge so need to get that correct too! I'd need it for a month I'd pay all the postage charges and have it sent too and from special delivery so it can't get lost! I had one 10 years ago so I know how they work and how to make one just need to get it 100% correct! My email address is

If I have to I'll do it from a photo but I also need to know the correct pressure of the bourdon tube inside the gauge I think it's 160lb not sure as I've not had one for over 10 years! If anyone has a rough one with a bad face or doesn't work as it should I'll fix and fit a new face free of charge!

Maltese Cross Gauge(will try this spelling )

Thank-you for your recent posts.
Very positive and what I was hoping for.
The original gauge is now the matter .
Does anybody have one to loan/ Sell?
All the best.

An archive search for Maltese Cross and this will pull up the following topic

ah, unfortunately the photo is one of mine which I suspect 'isn't' 100% correct but I dont know for sure. The debate is about the shape of red leaves giving the fan shape!
