Finished my CV wall art project over the weekend thought I would share with you all! Being that I LOVE CV, but am not lucky enough to own one, this is my fix
First I needed to make some rails to mount the playfield to in order to prevent warping and I need an inner flame that I can mount the larger frame to.

Painted and used existing holes to mount the inner frame to

Now starting to get the outer frames measured, cut and laid out

And time to stain the wood!

So for the LED's I first use a huge piece of plastic and trace the locations of the playfield inserts

Then I use the clear plastic as a template to poke holes in a piece of cardboard and layout the LEDS, this is the most time consuming part.

I 3D printed some parts to fill the ringmaster, boom balloon, ball eject, and rollover switches so I can light them.

Last with a little arduino code we get a real nice radom pattern that cycle 6 different modes!

The only pieces actually attached to the playfield are the roller switches and saucers with tiny single screws! Also this playfield would for sure need to be reclreared.. the clear is not good and there is rippling and insert seams all over
