I took on Flicker because only the first four inches or so are corroded. The rest looks real good. The whole lockdown frame and assembly will have to be replaced, but with patience and my Dremel, the lockdown bar itself was saved.

Once the corroded metal is out, I hope the mouse piss smell will be out with it.

Actually, I was going to let a friend have it, but my wife likes the theme and the bg and pf are nice.

I into it so I can have a decent looking playable toy at an affordable price. Flicker is the most project of a game I’ve gotten so far. It is fun bringing a game to life, but the point is to end up with a game I like.
