Made by Athaya, who has the file from my first miniegi, and paint by myself.
Oh, I once received a dial for the mini egi from Athaya but the subdial alignment was off.
Have you checked the clearance?
grrrrrrrrrrr not yet, I was confident regarding the first experience...I'm going to check


I have a doubt...not sure but the second pin seems to touch the edge of the second hole when the hour/min pin seems centered. I will try to assemble it on tomorrow...
that woukd be bad,the finish looks very great

Slightly heated up the dial from behind to allow wax to get in easier.
Scraped off excess with thumbnail tool
Qtip in alcohol cleaned up a bit
