Disclaimer: I'm an owner of the v1.0 so my opinions are a little bias. I like the blades, I especially like the fact that it doesn't use 12VDC but it looks a little too, uh... Star Trekky? The sample colours don't help, but all I see is a phaser or a new Federation ship.

I prefer the roundness of the L wire (sp?) It gives the Snack Bar a more nostalgic look, more tubular. It looks more like retro neon tubes to me and therefore has a more appealing and realistic look. The blades make it look more futuristic and that doesn't match the 50's feel of this pin.

Of course I'm an old bastard so I'm probably in the minority.

I still don't have a CFTBL but I have your v1.0 mod. That's how much I'm a fan of this pin and I think it says a lot about how much I like your mod(s). For anything CFTBL I'll be as close to brutally honest as I can be without being a jackass. Constructive as possible.

I think your idea of bevelling one edge will help the look dramatically. Are you able to melt the edge of the light blade to round them on both edges or will that distort the light too much?

Any time swinks. Your dedication to pinball and CFTBL is inspiring to me. Constructive criticism is the least I can do to help you improve your already crazy mad skillset. Enough of me patting you on the back though.

Please add me to the v2.0 list (or upgrade list from v1.0).

Looks great Swinks. Like what you did with the hold down tie and the dome. I'm still not sold on the blades. I need to see them lit up and mock installed on a CFTBL. The power savings is still a huge selling feature.
