Just some new pics on how the silver jubilee is going, nearly finished.

Looking good, is that vinyl or laminate/Formica, certainly very visual.....I am oddly a fan of bright Formica on machines, probably one of the few that us

I like Formica on British types such as Jamiesons; it's part of the era.
This looks more like a skilfully-applied paint technique to me, though.

I would love to say I've painted this but it's vinyl wrap that I imported. Just waiting for the front parts to be polished, then I can fit the front which when complete looks great will put final pic up ASAP. The other Jubilee is going to have a deep red frontage so they don't look too much like each other. Jst need a bit of help on price on what to sell it for if anyone wants to give me an idea. Don't want to over price it.

Thanks TF, just love machines that stand out. Got another like this to do, then going to battle the Sega clone which we spoke about on the other thread. Going for the black vinyl with alligator skin pattern for the Sega, but sticking with the black and red front colour.

All finished now, let me know what you think guys. I know it won't appeal to some of you, so good or bad give me your views.

Alligator skin That would be interesting......wonder if the world of slots is about to be changed by wraps, like the car world..... Great because you can change with your mood.

I know TF, but at my age pal you've got to try something new and to be honest got it delivered today - it looks really nice and the side is caved in on the Sega, so might as well do something different with it. I wouldn't dream of doing it on a top quality machine, but the middle of the road one, why not?

I think you made a great job of it. For me I would have preferred the ribs on the right front polished out to highlight them, but that's just my view. A really good job all round.

Thank you coppinpr. I was going to paint in between black then chrome wrap the slats to make them stand out but as I have another one to do in RED this time I'm going to try the chrome slats and see how it looks, trial and error, so if it doesn't look right I will peel them off.

So the blue jubilee sold to a couple who drove all the way from Brighton to Yorkshire, really missing it so cracking on with another in deep red this time will try not to sell this one.

Hi pennywise I have to say thanks again for selling the machine to me you did a fantastic job on the cosmetics it looks great.
I’ve tried out some temporary led lighting inside and it looks good. So ordered a kit once it’s done I’ll upload some pictures.
And we’re from Bristol but totally worth the journey.

Hi Dave, sorry pal thought you said Brighton really glad you like it still gutted its gone but as you can see cracking on with the next one, might put a light in this one so yes put some pics up with your light in when you get it and maybe that will make my mind up.
