Custom spinner top idea - What you think?
« on: September 07, 2016, 04:58:09 am »
So I have acquired some old Sega Tokens which are quite cool and I was thinking it would be nice to intergrate one into my cab. I could embed one into a Spinner top as a bit of a unique feature.

I have a spin trak mounted to the front of my cab and I am lucky enough to have access to some helpful and talented machinists at work.

So I was thinking I could get them to knock me up a new Wheel (I was thinking stainless?) with a recess in the top the same size of the token and stick it in.

What you guys think?

Heres a example of the tokens and my spinner:

On the other hand I could save the lads some work and buy a spare as they are only £10 lol

Just get em to recess the top for me.

Well Fed Games
