some info on the lcd screen mod, Mike from PinballMikeD has kindly asked for me to join his collaborative team for the AC/DC mod as well as quite a few future mods where I will be specialising in toys for his high tech / quality mods. This is my test mod that he has asked for to finish off his lcd mod and to see if I am worthy  #@#. He is currently developing this lcd mod also for the Pro AC/DC as well.

Mike wanted something 3D and affordable to dress up the front of the mod between the metal plate and lexan screen to give that look similar to the Black Ice Tour concert stage. There are 4 parts to this mod which are all just under 1/4 inch (6mm) thick and simple use the 4 supplied bolts and slot together sandwiched between the metal plate and the lexan screen.

The material for the side gears and top gears is polished alumide which is a 3D printed material that is plastic as well as metal flakes to give it that cast metal look. The stage is a flat black unpolished 3D printed material that is plastic. All parts will be professionally printed at Shapeways and most probably fitted by Mike.

I am still looking at tweaking / fine tuning the design so please join in and share any thoughts.

Mike has asked me if I want to be the possible distributor for his mods for down under, so this could happen if there is enough interest for various mods.

Cheers, Jady
