I'm looking for some bally coin inserts.
See pic. But would love one that says
press to start.
Or
Bally
Or
Insert 10cents.
My coin door is a bit naked so I have bought a decal sticker for the door. Plus would like to put inserts in just to spice it up a bit.
Any body have any they would like to sell or no of any online stores that have them.

+1 no locals I can think of have these.

Yeah I prefer to buy in Australia. Or by second hand.
I have a thing about the postage costs. It does my head in how much it costs.
-
I found it easier to make them up.
Just cut out a piece of opaque white plastic to match the metal cover plate then print of the coinage you want on see thru plastic a4 sheet and overlay it on top.

that looks great toads. do you get the plastic from Bunnings or the like. Is it expensive the A4 sheet?

I used an old light cover as most of them are white opaque plastic.
As far as the a4 sheet goes I pinched, sorry borrowed from our office. Buy it at newsagents or office works.
It's what they use for overhead projectors.

That's a great idea I will check it out. I have only the one coin slot and the other two are blank I will try and do a
press to start
And a
Press to eject
on the other two. I was looking at the old rub on letter fonts we used to use at school.
-
The old letraset, I remember it well, searched but can't find it anywhere.
Where getting old...
Also make sure the slot in the steel cover plate is wide enough, if their Europe plates they might have a bump in them that might need filing out.

Great work, it looks excellent. ^^^

Made these today. $2 a sheet. Expensive sheets.
But then realised I wrote eject not reject. Lol.

Are these transparencies that you buy and print on? If so I know officeworks offer the same but you provide the artwork and then they print it on A4 for less than a couple of bucks. So if that helps, you will also be able to get them to print colour graphics as well

good point as you could do a say red box with the font in front of it to simulate your desired coin plate and officeworks run transparencies through their photo developer which gives a stronger, truer colour and sharper image. I recently did this for something pin related that I am working on with excellent results.

Is transparent paper then with a normal house printer and word document.
No office works down thic way.
Am going to cut out on white Perspex then contact the transparent sheet to Perspex.

Then you can add some Xmas lights to them...

think this is going a little too far but it does look neat.
-
Yes I could. But I don't think so. &&

Swinks, I can't remember how far we got with them, but I think maybe you still have the samples for the Williams coin inserts? Have you got any further with reproducing them?
-
did scans, and sent parts back - not a priority at the moment, got some family stuff happening at the moment
-
1st try I thought come up ok.
-
Hos they look great. I did some the other day on my inkjet but couldn't get enough depth in the colours and black so looks very washed out. Will revisit this again some day.

Double print it... if you have a printer where you can slide adjust to the sides of the paper you can feed through twice and it will line up exactly.. have done exactly this with water slides %$%

thanks Gav my exact thoughts. Just in this case my printer is printing little pin holes in the black. New printer that has just developed this when printing on photo, decal paper. So I didn't fuss too much.

It Came up looking really good. ^^^
