Thanks Jason
 
Marquees

These are some odball ones but for $25 shipped. They are yours. All 4 are Plexi. The Eureka one is NOS. That is of course if you still need some after the first responders PM.

I have 2 translite ones you might be interested in also. Crusin World driver 4 a Killer instinct. Same box, add $22 both are NOS. Sorry about the glare from the flash.

That looks really good. I started building one of these once but never could figure out where I was gonna put it. You have realized my dream.

Hey, dude!

Looks great. Wish I had the skills to make something like that. :)

I wanna ask, the frames you use on the translites, where do you get those? I've been getting mine from Target, but they're spotty at best on availability and only seem to come in black.

Thanks everyone for the kind words ... EVERYONE needs a 11ft marquee wall.

Oh the frames !!! LOL !!! YES , that was the hard part ...

Atfer hours and hours , tests and tests , internet searches after internet searches , I even looked at the $4 a ft. stuff used in showers ....

I found the answer ...

You can goto homedepot , its the stuff used between 2 peice of paneling , its white plastic and its $2.63 for 8 ft.

If you look at it from the side , it looks like the letter 'H'.

I just spray painted it black , and cut it to size.

I sometimes had to use a regular screw driver to help open it up , for the larger plexi and glass marguees ...

I also spaced them , fat and skinny and fat and skin , so I wasnt trying to jam 2 fat peices into the same frame.

Hope that helped, J

Hmm...that'd be:

?

Neato. Never thought of that. I've been working on making a 'plaque' for my Gorf marquee. Not sure the project is worth all the hub-bub it took to make one. Doesn't look quite right and I don't have the skills to really make one that rawks.

So did you put the translites onto plexiglass or what? :) If you want to PM me so we dont keep bumping this thread that's cool, too.

I am currently building one for a Mad Planets marquee. It's coming out well, but I agree a lot of work for just a marquee to be backlit. I wish EL panels were cheaper.
 
I got some 'DIY' frames where you buys the sides separately and then put 'em together wid a screwdriver. I managed to get Track & Field to fit in one with the pressure clips but none of the others fit.

I got 3 Translites from a KLOVer but only one fits in the 8 dollar poster frame I got from target, so I need to find another translite 24 x 8 ish in size that looks good in a black frame next to Pit Fighter. :) That's why the interest when I saw what he had done with the ones on the wall. :)
