I'm adding a rangemaster to my wish list, and drew some artwork for it:

I guessed at the center points for the switch and other parts. I think the box is around 4x2" on the front, and 5" deep. Will probably "roll my own" to get the little overhang on the front. And how about an output jack instead of the built-in cord?

Some very good pictures and info on GEOFEX which I used as a guide (thanks RG!):

That is great!

Could you tell me, what was the font type you used? (i mean like Times New Roman etc.)

I'vebeen searching for the "Rangemaster" font for a good hour, but i didn't find the original.

Here's a lot of similar fonts:



If someone need the name one of the fonts just post here, im too tired too type out their fancy, long names. :)

The font is called EngraversGothicBT, and I added a slight rounded outline.

I removed the artwork for now, because I thought it could be a copyright problem. What should I do?

Gill Sans is a classic. it's virtually everywhere.

It reminded me of BBC and some old stuff from my childhood. After you posted it's name, i saw it was used by BBC and others.

I think i had some children's story book printed witth that font, and thats why that font triggered "something" in my brain. ;D
