I have a B & S dial caliper with a broken crystal - #599-579-5, Is there a place (hopefully on-line) where I can buy a replacement? Lud

I made a new crystal for a B&S dial indicator from a piece of Plexiglas. It really wasn't too hard, and has a flat front, which actually works better with respect to reflections. I super-glued one side to a piece of faced-off steel, then turned all the other features, then just popped it off the mandrel. I glued it to the dial bezel.

I have made a new crystal from a 2 or 3 liter coke bottle, Cut it out of the oval section and it will give a little more strength and it also looks good.
