Quoted from minishark:Thanks for posting the picture Roamin! I printed this picture onto transparent inkjet sticker paper and cut out the eye. I darkened the black part of the eye with a sharpie and used a dab of white out to complete it. It doesn't look half bad. [quoted image]
Looks good!
Quoted from minishark:These are great instructions Riefepeters. Thanks for taking the time to post them. I am slowly building the topper, but instead of fastening everything to the back box on my newly restored Fish Tales I am adding a piece of Birch plywood to use as a base. My plan is to make the topper a self-contained module so it is easier to remove for both travel and maintenance. The fish flapping doesn't create a lot of vibration so I am thinking about using 2 4x6 patches of industrial Velcro to attach the module to the head. Do you think that will be enough to hold it securely?
It should probably hold it. Not that it vibrates that much as you said, but I like that I can feel the topper shaking in my hands as I play. I guess Velcro won't transfer as much, but the sound should be pretty much the same and make the same racket .
