    It's long and it's thick.*
    Commercial/casino grade tubes, over 4 ft wide, 2.5 ft high. As is typical, the pic doesn't quite capture the colors. It's very red and lavender. The pachislo doesn't do it justice either, I suppose it's time to find an old-school nickel slot.

    * That's what she said...

    My latest neon acquisition. Not in the gameroom, mainly because it wouldn't fit. $100 for an 8 ft wide sign, take my money! The thing has 5 transformers and weighs ~100 lbs. I've got some blackout work to do on it, but other than that it works fine. I ran with the Italian theme and created a Trattoria of sorts in a detached garage. Gotta get me some bocce balls for the lawn that it's open to.

    Wall space in the gameroom is at a premium, I had to put Vitamin R in the bathroom.

    Quoted from Silverballer:

    Nice sign. The contrast in not only color but script are welcoming. Great bends on the red. For some reason I ask, which is none of my business and feel free to tell me just that, do you happen to live next door to a KFC? And when I mention next door I mean against it? Just wondering for some reason.

    Quoted from PhilGreg:

    Hey we want to see the whole thing (with the KFC sign)! Can you zoom out?

    The Colonel is about 4ft x 6ft, in front of a window. He becomes absolutely on fire in the afternoon sun. This pic doesn't show it in all its glory, but I wanted to show the entire wall, with neons. I think the total neon count in the gameroom is up to 25 now.

    Something I cobbled together consisting of the power supply and backlight hoop tube from a sacrificial/parts sign and a decal I've had for years.
    Krylon blue "stained glass" spray paint for a slight tint.
