I take everything off the score motor board, remove all the labels, and sand away the embedded dirt and discoloration. Sometimes the labels can be cleaned up and re-used, but lately I’ve been replacing them.
All the hardware gets dismantled for a deep cleaning/polishing and mechanical rehabilitation. It takes time, but the end result is satisfying.
Score Motor 3 (resized).jpgQuoted from Boise_D:That looks amazing. How do you reprint the board labels and get the right font, spacing, etc?
I scan them, bring them into Photoshop, and rebuild the text using Futura, which is a pretty good approximation of whatever font Gottlieb used.
