    Subject says it all.

    I am looking to buy a custom "Madison Pinball" Neon sign for my gameroom.
    you can see the logo at www.madisonpinball.com for how sinple or complex it may be.

    Anyone have any suggestions on where to order from?
    Any places to avoid?
    differences in quality or the right quesitons to ask (I know nothing about neon).

    thanks for the help

    I've driven past this place a bunch of times and they've been there for years...

    And in looking online, there's this place too.

    http://www.antigoneon.com/

    Don't know the connection between the two, but find it interesting that there's two neon sign makers in the same area.

    Any custom neon sign maker can do basic designs.

    Yeah this would be a custom one of piece. Neon is not cheap so make sure you get someone that knows what there doing. Get actual neon and not that LED china crap. Let us know what you find out as I'd be curious to know myself.

    aoos.store on eBay can make custom neon signs.

    It's probably best if you can find some place in Madison to make it. That way you don't have to get it shipped.

    If you don't find someone. I have a good contact here in Austin.

    I had my custom arcade neon sign made by this user on ebay:

    ebay.com link: 17 X14 CUSTOM BUSINESS LOGO REAL NEON LIGHT SIGN DISPLAY BEER BAR PUB BILLBOARD

    He always runs that auction and you can customize the size of the sign, the look, etc. He has made three custom neon signs for me and I've been very happy with them, I attached a pic of the arcade sign he made as one example of his work. I think I ended up paying around $140 for this one, that includes shipping cost. Start to finish it took about a month to receive the sign.

    That's a pretty cool sign, and seems really affordable for the amount of effort it takes to shape the glass tubes and source the neon, plus pack and prep for shipping. What's up with the wiring though, are there two control boxes?

    I have bought stock "open" signs from Everything Neon. They were great to deal with. They offer custom neon, but I've never had any done.

    Yeah it has two boxes on it, I guess the smaller one is for the blue moon and the larger one is for the pink lettering but I didn't verify that. I attached another pic of the sign off so the wiring can be seen better. It doesn't matter much when in use since I play in a dark room with the neon signs as the only lighting, so the wiring doesn't really show in use.
