I took some liberties with a few of the asteroids and added a Centuri logo in the large UFO.

These are high quality photo reprints of the Time Pilot bezel will be $35.00 shipped. They will be trimmed to fit an original Time Pilot Centuri cab (23 5/8 x 22 5/8 inches) with the middle monitor opening cut out and shipped rolled in a USPS Priority Mail tube.

For those of you wanting one, please Paypal me $35.00 to jjhogue AT verizon DOT net.

Make sure you send payment for "GOODS" so I can print and ship right through Paypal. Please NO gift payments!
 
6 paid so far! I'll be getting the proof from the printer hopefully by Monday and I'll post on how it looks then. Once everything is OK, I'll have them print the rest.
 
Just got home tonight, but I had a chance to at least open the package from the printer...

I'll check for accuracy tomorrow.

looks great, and I am very interested- nice work. Are you planning on sandwiching it between plexi? I have gotten a few similar bezels from gameongraffix, and have thought about cutting a thin piece of plexi to just back the bezel rather than the viewing area.

I plan to affix mine to the opposite side of my horrible original cardboard bezel. I suppose 2 pieces of thin plexi might work...
 
Played around with the bezel tonight. I have to make a few minor adjustments. First is the opening size. I have an original Vanguard bezel, Round Up bezel and Time Pilot bezel to use for sizing. Believe it or not, none of these 3 are the same. The opening placement varies slightly with each one. Therefore, I'm decreasing the opening size slightly to leave room for these variations so if you decide to adhere the repro to the back of another Centuri bezel, it "should" work out fine. The rest are tiny art corrections- no big deal.

I installed mine with just a bit of spray adhesive to the back of my cardboard Time Pilot bezel. No need to overdo the adhesive- the plexi over the bezel holds it in place just fine. Here are a few pics:

The pics don't even do it justice. It's SO much brighter, even through the smoked plexi.

I'll be out of town from Friday 2/11 through the following Thursday, but I'll make these corrections and get the file to the printer. I should have them in my possession once I return!

I wish I had a Time Pilot to put one of these on. Just wanted to say that it looks like you did a real nice job on these.

Thanks man- I appreciate it!

It made my machine SO much brighter. Now, just to refinish the coin door and replace the t-molding. Since I already "customized" it with a bootleg cpo and yellow wico stick, I'm thinking white t-molding instead of black. I'd love to use another color but it's the stupid offset t-molding and I think it only comes in black and white...
 
The bezel showed up yesterday. It looks great. I have it sitting under some weights flattening out now. I'll probably mount it to poster board in a couple days.

Thanks again for a top notch job!
