finally had sometime to attack this project.
it consisted on gathering data from a Pot (analog Read on the NodeMcu), passing the data to a webpage, and then displaying the data on the gauge.
It Works!!!

Look at the attached picture to see what it looks like and it does move the needle every time the pot is moved to a different position!
