Hi,
I got this Gossen Variosix F lightmeter that work flawlessly, but there's a little plastic part missing on the light receiving box.
If any of you could take precise measurement and photo of that part, I'd really appreciate.
Here's some photo of what I'm looking for (sorry cell phone quality!) :

Well, continuing in my monologue and for internet searchability sake, I took some nights and my cheap digital caliper to model the missing part based on the meter itself and some photo I found online.
If anyone ever need a replacement cover, here's a link to the model
https://www.shapeways.com/model/2351781/gossen-variosix-f-repair-part.html?modelId=2351781&materialId=89
It still haven't been 3D printed as I'm waiting for my local printer for a quote, but it should fit quite nicely or require little bit of sanding at best.
Just poke me for the file!

For the interested.
Here's the first rougth draft printed in low quality (super fast) from my local 3d printer (really nice guy!)
I have to tweak the model a bit, its missing a couple of mm in height and my little feet/hooks are completely wrong.
