Re: Turned metal dash overlay ?
I've thought of doing this myself, but I don't have a drill press either. My GMC Jimmy came out of the St Louis plant, so I had the Spirit of Saint Louis in mind. The Ryan NYP aircraft's nose cowling had prominent ''perlage''.
If you're worried about the pilot drill for the hole saw to cut instrument holes making skip marks -- the back surface would be easier to work on.
