One moment I think 6 & 9 are too wide or their bowls are too large, the next moment I think they're just about the right size. (When I tested narrower/smaller versions, it was the opposite: one moment I thought it was too narrow/small, the next moment it looked to me alright.)
What do you think?
Other comments are welcome as well.

0/3/8 a bit wider.
Biggest problems I'm seeing:
— The "4" is quite unhappy.
— The bottom of the "2" appears too heavy.
The bottom of 2 is now a bit lighter. I've also changed 4 a little, not sure if it's happier now (but I suspect it's too heavy now, I'll have to see if I still suspect that tomorrow).
I think I've also narrowed 3 by 1 or 2 points. Probably no one can tell.
I'll try Marc's suggestion when I have more time.
from left to right, I overlaid some other sans, Futura, DIN, yours, aligned at bottom right corner -- look at the bit of magenta sticking out at the bottom left,
This is more conventional. Jeremy, do you like it better now? I think it's lost some character and balance.
(I must admit I don't quite see the problem there. I see the complexity, but it doesn't seem to me problematic. I would like to dwell on that, though, if that's okay. I'm just a beginner and I have plenty to learn.)
Maybe it should just be straight.
