Looks great Seven! Fantastic job!

Looking forward to the pics. I considered Close Encounters as my first pin back when I started. The theme and colours always appealed to me.

One thing I don't understand is how these appear flat. An apron has two locations for apron cards that sit lower than the rest of the apron. So why don't we see any sagging or a dip in the magnet these are printed on? The first image looks like the magnetic material is super thick, but in the...

PinGraffix stuff is really nice, but it's limited. No White Water, No Creech... :( Tilt Graphics is making pinblades as well now. One of their artists left and started his own company.

Man, I hope the swisstrack guys are auto-sent images of floors people create using their software. I can just see their faces.

Glad you are working things out. If I sound hostile in my posts please know that I'm not trying to be. I am trying to come across as frustrated, frustrated by the gremlins that appeared in this pin for you. I was happy with this pin. If I'm ever permitted 3 in the house I would look to get...

I've been following this thread as well. The artwork is superb. I plan to order as soon as they are available.

That looks like my past order. I wonder how many Turficon pins they sell to pinheads in a month? Those were the best I could find. There really isn't a lot of gold on them. Just in the center pin and even then it's lacking. The tin ones are even more expensive. I don't know why.

I was thinking for my garage.:D so Ribtrax works best. You've inspired me! I have a 20' x 20' garage. Big enough to get two cars in, but not enough room to get in any pins. :( Originally I was thinking of Megaman on one side and then maybe Metal Man on the other side. I'm ordering a...

I kind of like my design.

I don't understand what you mean by "the replacement was installed before I got this machine". Are you talking about NASCAR still? The coils installed on the garage mechanism are the stock ones. You didn't clarify which coil it was that you replaced. Was it the 23-800 or the 22-1080 coil...

Shipping from .com is different. It's always been $8 for Canada as far as I know. You mean these? https://www.digikey.ca/product-detail/en/D01-9973242/952-1938-ND/3727905

That swisstrax stuff is exactly what I've been searching for for my garage and deck. $3 sq foot is great compared to redoing the entire surface of my deck. I don't know, but I think you nailed it finding that stuff.

Yeah, that's what I was getting at (in a round about way). I mean, it's tape. Why do you need to add double-sided tape to tape? Either way, this is genius. Painter's tape comes in blue, white, orange, and green already. I haven't seen red, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

I was thinking of a GI one in addition to the OCD board. I'm not sure my wallet can justify both.

You guys are blowing my mind. I don't know why this stuff doesn't occur to me... I blame my kids (lack of sleep). Once you cut, do you peel the test sheet off the back when you are done? Is so, couldn't you just use the adhesive already on the tape to stick it to the coil?

You lost me. There are 3 coils on the garage mech. Two are 23-800 and one is a 22-1080. The 22-1080 is the one that does the lifting while the smaller 23-800's release the garage so that it can fall and the other spits the ball back onto the PF from the scoop. What are the 5a and 3a coil you...

What? You guys are talking about this stuff correct?

I can't even begin to imagine how difficult this was.

I take it you are using a colour laser printer? I'm thinking inkjet won't cut it. When you remove the _txt the real image appears and it is colourised. You edit the colours afterwards? Do you use two-sided tape when you wrap them around the coils? What have you had the best results with?
