OK, all of the new ESB coin slots are finished. Here are a few pictures of them, the coin slot in the middle is a ROTS so you can see the size difference.

Rich,

Sorry, but at this time I will not be offering individual sets of greeblies. After the ESB and ROTJ boxes are completed I may start offering them

Thanks,

Michael

Hey everyone,

Here are the completed bases for the red and blue lenses. With these being finished all of the aluminum pieces are finally done. :toothy Know I have to machine the red and blue acrylic squares for the top of each base and the red acrylic for the coin slots.

Hey guys, I have been playing around with some different color samples for the rocker switches. Let me know what you think????
Now it on to machining the red and blue acrylic pieces along with the coin slot inserts.

after watching aluminum parts being made for about 7+ years It never ceases to amaze me the quality of CNC pieces being made.

I do have a question what is the weight compared to plastic craft boxes and peoples self molded boxes? It would seem to me to be a bit heavier.

Will definitely be watching for when you start offering kits.
