The new metal (Steel Plates) are a huge improvement, although it is also a huge pain in the arse to cut.

On their way they is :laugh: And they are perdy



I think the one I put on ze Super Mario Machine looked pretty good as well. (Even if PL1 sends his hate  :o )



Cheers fellas  :cheers:

I didn't hate on the serial plate or the machine, just the CPO with 2 Joynicorns that made Mario and Luigi wish that you had learned from Santa's advice to Ralphie.



How are they going to work as plumbers now that you've shot out their eyes with buttons?   >:D

HAHA, I love that scene.

Alright, alright we should leave this thread void of our banter.

Thanks for the criticism in all my builds by the way, can only be for the good and I am only getting better for it.

What do you think of the new steel plates?

Depending on quality and durability, I'd say if you can swing it, I'd charge about $10 - $15 per.  The cost to get the labels and metal would be probably $25 investment, so it's still appealing to the consumer and you'll be making a couple hundy a week.

Haha, we will see if you guys like them. Jammin0 was pretty pumped to get his and those were the soda can versions.

I doubt there is even a market for that much a week  ;D let alone the fact I have a regular tech job to tend to.

Feel like I'm derailing a little bit but I thought I would post these little guys I just got in the mail from Cory.  Actually he got me the original ones made of soda cans and before I could get them on the thicker version showed up today in the mail.  A nice little surprise because I didn't know they were coming.  Anyway, Thanks dude.  I'm happy with them.

Haha, I am glad you liked that. I remade your cause I figured it would be a nice little gift. I loved wreck-it-ralph, had a bunch of extra metal and some space left on the print page. When your cab is all done and through, it would be nice to see it all in a higher quality.

OK, I'm a bit pissed, but I have a funny story.  First of all, this in no way is Corybee's fault.  I want to state that immediately.  I'm pissed at the Sacramento mail sorting facility.

So, anywhoo...I've been watching y'all get your amazing serial plates...dreaming of the day that I can install them on 2 arcades as the complete and last final touch.  Knowing that I'm an entire continent away, I waited and waited.

So, I got home last night and there was an envelope....a TORN envelope in a plastic bag covered in USPS-speak about how they process 7 million pieces of mail and yada, yada...sometimes things happen, yada...

My heart sank.  I have relatives coming in tomorrow and wanted to finish "Fistful of Quarter" for my father in law before they got here.

So, I gingerly feel through the baggie and there's no way in hell there's metal plates in there.  The envelope is clearly marked by Coreybee...but it is completely torn in half, right down the middle.  Upon opening the baggie to see what's left of whatever is in there, I notice a note/letter.

So, I open up the letter and begin reading.  It's a letter from a con in jail to one of his bros about working out, the conditions of the jail, etc. WTF?!?!?!

I know Cory's out of the country for a WHILE, so this probably won't get fixed for some months...but I though it interesting that this type of stuff only happens to me.  :afro:

Here's how it was delivered:


Here's all the USPS crap that basically says there's nothing I can do about it:


 :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored:

Anyway, I got to learn a bit about northern california jail systems, etc.

I get back to the good ol' USofA on the 20th. Can do another run of 8 or so if there is interested. Need to remake Mc's plates anyways.

On another note, was at Dublin's trinity university, lo and behold there was a Fix-It-Felix cab in their Science Gallery......but the place was closed to the public...... :censored:

Haven't been able to play one and accross the pond I find it, but cannot even examine it. Just my luck.
