I will love to have those files to make my own designs and get them 3D printed
I've scanned and digitized 91mm regular and plus scales. The files are AutoCAD .dwg and can easily be converted to .dxf. The outlines are splines, not arcs and lines, which apparently won't work with some tool path software. They work fine with my laser engraver.

How did you scan them?

Took me awhile to figure out what they meant and how to do it (still new at this), but one of the applications I have had an option to convert splines to arcs.

I'm interested in how you're converting splines to arcs. Can you share exactly how you do this?

It's not even in a vector format, let alone being a CAD 3D model. (Not flaming you here, please don't think that. But my secret identity is a mild-mannered Technical Illustrator and part time CAD-monkey.)What we're after here is something more like this...http://www.3dcadbrowser.com/preview.aspx?modelcode=5234(Image removed from quote.)which is about the best I've found online, appears to be pretty accurate but it doesn't look like he(?) has modeled the inside detail of the scales.I'm going to download the model in a few different formats and see if I can pull it apart, check if it's dimensionally correct and add the bushing holes etc to the inside surface of the scales. Might give us something to work with.
A bit excessive for this application, don't you think?
If you can please also measure some Wenger scales and liner (for the holes). That would be sweet!
