More work today. Cover window glass was broken so found the right size pocket watch crystal and scribed a line and filled with black paint. Not perfect but I only have two crystals that are the right size so its going to do. Glued that in place then started on the white fill. That is tricky. I found the only way to decently do it is to use water base gloss and dab it on in a small area at a time. Then quickly wipe with my finger. Tried doing it with damp cloth and with dry cloth but most of the paint in the groves came out too. When its dry I hope to be able to clean it up a little better. Next I made up a little glow paste. Used some clear adhesive and mixed in the glow powder. I could have just used white paint but this looks a little more original to me .

More to come.

The job is done. So far no leaks from the seals. The best part, no radiation readings. The wife wont worry about it being in the house now.
