Quoted from dudah:Yep the color was ”gunstock”. It’s the newest one. I actually haven’t tested it on the red oak, will do tomorrow!
My repro header is oak I think and the stock ones have a different grain. The stock stuff is kind of red-ish. Wondering if it is pine or something cheap. I can show you a pic if you are interested in the two.
thanks for the pics! I may try to redo my header with a new piece of wood and stain.
Quoted from snyper2099:I love what you’re doing but honestly, if I owned one, I would just paint my cabinet one solid color... possibly orange or Navy blue.
Funny story, so I think mine may of been repainted, but it looked like a truck bed liner gray. so I was kind of like, ugh, wtf is this. Then I think I learned that was how they painted them? If I was going to redo one, I'd just do the gray paint or maybe even bed line it so it had the texture!
Quoted from edward472:If you're not done, disregard. The hump on each end is suppose to be thinner than the rest of the casting. The only reason I mention this is I've seen a couple of guys wanting this part reproduced, and this is the closest model I've seen
[quoted image]
Model as in not original or a picture of the original and the one the op is working on?
Ya, I’d love a repro, mine is a Chinese one off eBay that I’ve chopped up and it drops a nickel down but it isn’t pretty
Man 3D printing has come along way...
A dream would be a skill roll diy that could hang or be pretty thin on the wall. All parts could be 3d printed or sourced from a box store.
Man, I get jealous of everyone that just dives in and does these cool diy projects!! So awesome! So keep it up! Maybe after the kiddos get older I’ll have time for some projects.
Quoted from edward472:The florescent bulb in the original is just as bad about showing every scratch and speck of dust. It took a lot to learn to live with it
haha, I third this :-p
You know how awsome this rgb would be if you tied colors or reactions to score switches? I mean.... making a "new" age skill roll with this would be so cool.
Looking great!
Quoted from dudah:Each score insert will also have an individually controllable RGB LED behind it. Since the software knows which "level" the coin is at, I'm planning on making some cool chasing effects.
YEAAAAH!!! I just imagine all the led effects like the new raw thrills games, or tna etc. Can't wait to see more! Glad you decided to take this on. It is awesome seeing people do projects that I can only just dream about at the moment.
