Fabricating an FP2 lower chip pan?

$

Hey y'all,

My FP2 leaves me little dribbles of way oil on the floor. Mostly this is a nuisance on the operator's side where I get drips from the Z-axis handwheel. The oil does seem to make its way into the Z-axis dial, where it also makes a mess whenever I adjust the zero.
Now, I didn't get a chip pan with my FP2 and I wonder how much trouble it'd be to fabricate one. I searched around a little bit, but I didn't see any good photos of how the original is constructed.
I wonder if any of you who have an original chip pan would be willing to take some pictures and take some measurements for me?

Siggi
