Count me in!! Your an artist sir. Definitely want to be on your list for a set.

Quoted from Loganpinball:

I did not like the look either. It was just a proven drop. I had to figure out the best diameter die to shape it. It has to be bigger than drop hole, but not sure how close I could go.. It looks like this form will work! And I trimmed off the rings that were just to hold together. This is most likely the design I will sell.

Looks awesome! I would start a list from who said they are in and then go from there.

Quoted from Nazz26:

I think it looks great. Excellent and talented work. How do you plan to incorporate the 3 red dome lights onto the wire forms?

Great question. I am sure someone can figure that out.

Quoted from Loganpinball:

The only way I could do anything would be to have the machine and at this point it is very unlikely.

Good call. Love the band but the pin is meh.

I would pass on the fingers. Sometimes less is more. Your wire form ramps look great without them. Wouldn’t add work time to it on top of what already it takes to make them. Great try but I would scrap them.

Quoted from Loganpinball:

I agree with all the comments. I only tried as it was a request. I made a hand that I could lay on top to see if it worked, so it was easy to see.
I am trying to bang out the mandalorian rails so I can move on to these. Looking forward to something different.

Can’t wait to get a set for Guardians. Thank you for taking the time to do this. Great welding skills.

Quoted from RonSwanson:

The craftsmanship of the Groot hand is amazing, but I agree with the comments to shelve it. Kind of reminds me of when the Terminator rips off his arm skin.

That’s where I have seen those before lol.

Quoted from Loganpinball:

You never know if something works unless you try. And sometimes it works. (At least for me). It really depends on the machine. Gnr snake stands out and its easy to see. The Discovery machine I made is also very easy to see and goes with the theme. I like the dragon and actually sold a dragon. Everyone has different tastes. I don’t mind sharing my work. Surreal is listening to a podcast and getting beat up by a designer for altering his machine, while working on it. Yes that happened! [quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Definitely doesn’t hurt to try. It can look better or worse than on paper. A lot of times you need to see it mocked up to tell of it works or not.

I will offer the basic set as shown in the proto type wireform and the hexagon type as well. I want to work out the plastic I see in my head for the portal I think it might work out.
...
Extremely crude poly cutout over portal. I would like to get printed artwork close to screenshot on them. Not sure how, but I will look. If I can do that, then the flashers would light up portals and I think that would look awesome.

Looking fantastic! The hexagons look great. Your doing an awesome job. Love watching your progression and process. Well done and nice choice with the hexagons. Thank you for doing this for us Guardians owners.

One man assembly line. Love it! Can these be chrome plated or powered coated? Thanks for the updates, much appreciated.

Quoted from Loganpinball:

I picked up a cricut 3 machine. I want to see if it can do whats in my head. The hexagons are portals and I want to have hexagon shaped printed images of that portal around the wireform and tie in flashers to back light them. If I can figure that out I think it could really “tie the room together” (lebowski!). Just need to experiment.

Great idea. Keep us posted.
