Kickstarter for Redesigned Skee Ball display boards

Hi,

A few days ago I launched a Kickstarter campaign related to Skee Ball. A few folks highly recommended I announce it over here as well, so here I am.

The Kickstarter is for replacement score and ball count boards that fit Model H and Model S machines. My Skee had the mini-bulb displays... but no longer! Now it has my new LED boards and they work great so I've decided to take them to market. Here's link where you can view my Kickstarter campaign:

I've got a video posted that shows the boards in detail plus I've posted a lot of descriptive text as well. Rather than repeat it all here, I'll simply encourage those interested to use the link above (or search "Skee" on Kickstarter's home page). The Campaign ends on 20 February; be sure to check periodically because I am posting updates.

Don't have a skeeball but backed you for a shirt. I expect a thank you at TPF :)

Absolutely - come by my booth and ask.

As I type this I have a video uploading in another tab for an update to the project. Not much new info in it, but you can see the Skee Score working on my bench-booted Model H Skee controller. My vintage HP digital logic analyzer also makes an appearance in the video. I hope you enjoy it as much as I appreciate the friendly comments in this thread!

Pretty neat - there have been 300 views of the project's video! 12 days left and looking for Skee Ball owners to join in...

Almost funded!

Hey everyone, the campaign seems to have stepped into a higher gear this weekend - we are now 66% funded! With 10 days remaining I'm feeling optimistic about reaching the goal. Just two more board set commitments would take it over the finish line!

100% !!!!!!!

Around 3pm today the Kickstarter reached full funding 4 days ahead of the campaign's end! And it got there even with me accidentally posting broken links in a couple places (sorry - clearly not intentional). Here's a link that works: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2111218102/skee-ball-display-pcbs-redesigned?ref=5s3gz7

Thanks especially to everyone who joined in to the campaign and also to all those well-wishers cheering it along! There are 4 days left if you still want to join the Kickstarter or, if you need these boards in the future they will be available on my website - www.kahr.us

Thanks - Couldn't have done it without you, OpSteel. Literally, funding is two dollars above the goal so without any one of the supporters it might not have happened. THANKS!

There are 24 hours left in the campaign so if you are on the fence about joining in, now is the time...

Hey I try. You were a nice guy when I talked to you at TPF last year so I figured I would help you out. Glad to see you made the funding.
 
Glad I found this. Just picked up a Skee Ball a couple days ago and my score board is having intermittent issues. Very happy to see that there's a solution out there.
