1981 UK bridgeport lubrication/serial# plate - after a good photo
Hi all,
The lube instruction plate on my 1981 UK bridgeport mill has faded such that is no longer readable.
I can make out the text at the top - left side is 'order number', right side is 'serial number'. Underneath each is stamped the relevant number. It does not have the big 'textron' at the top right.
Is there a kind soul out there with a similar plate in good condition so that it can be read and might supply a photo?
Purpose: I'm going to investigate getting reproduction plate(s) made and no point if I ain't got the raw material.
Many thanks,
Greg.
EDIT: from what I can (barely) see it seems a bit like this but without the 'bridgeport textron' border around everything:

EDIT2: .. and if anybody knows a service in Oz that could do such a thing that'd be cool. My last one repro plate came from the US.
