I would love to get me a custom neon sign but I don't believe there are any neon shops anywhere close to me.

Love that neon glow. I wish I had gotten into making signs many years ago. Is there any online places that teach neon sign making?

Quoted from Esoteric_rt:Can anybody recommend a neon dimmer to buy?
Think this one will work?

Quoted from TheMickster:Here is something that I had made up a few years ago, it is animated but I can not upload a movie file here......but I think you get the idea of it...
Very cool and personalized. Where did you get that?
Quoted from TheMickster:I wanted a couple of Plymouth Roadrunner, (1970 Superbird) neons made up for me, and found this place in China..(Like this one attached, example, but this is not mine)..and I asked if they could do something custom too, and they came up with this for me...If anyone is interested, I can try to find out who this was from my records?
Funny I have that road runner neon hanging in my pin rm. If you could let me know who made yours that would be great. Thanks

I would be concerned about it. I had a big NY yankees neon sign that somehow got a tiny crack where the wire entered the tube and it arched and cought the plywood on fire that it was hanging on. I was there when it happened so no damage except for the sign. If I was not there it could have been much worse.

Quoted from evileye:I think I'm going to gamble $200 and find out. Your sign looks amazing. I need it in my life. I'll never be able to afford the game, but dammit pinball gods let me have the sign.
For 200 bucks you can make the 45min drive and I will sell you mine.

Quoted from ramegoom:The neon simulates a vacuum tube, from the days gone by, before transistors. "33" is a big debate to what it means.
They say it is either the temp that it is brewed at or the amount of words in there story or something like that. I had that neon years ago and it broke. Would love to get another.

Quoted from atpcfiaim:I will post pics of 7Up and Lowenbrau when they get here. The artist Peter Max designed the 7Up in 1972 for their long running “Uncola” campaign.
I still have a box full of the uncola upside down glasses in the attic.

First lot was all non working so I have some work ahead of me. (But all that was $40!)
I’m really glad to have that Bowtie Guitar. My dad used to have one in his collection when I was younger.
I had that neon guitar and it lasted about 10 minutes before my girl broke it just like yours. Hung it in the garage for about 15 years before I threw it in the dumpster.

Currently making room on my Neon wall for it.
I brought that exact one home to put up and put it down, went into the garage to get some tools to hand it and by the time I got back my daughter knocked it over and broke it. I dont think it lasted more them 5 mins.

Quoted from dirkdiggler:Gotta love when someone honors their word.
I brought a big neon sign to a shop and the guy told me 120 to fix it. Than calls me back and almost doubles the price after I drop it off. I told him I will pick it up and he says if I dont get it soon he will throw it in the dumpster and I forgot all about it. A year later its fix and on his website for sale.
