Almost done with my first machine....now I am hooked

Getting close to finishing my first machine. There are a few other things that I would like to do to this, new lens add some decals..etc. But over all I am really happy with what I have accomplished in the last few weeks. I have to say it is an addictive hobby. Any suggestions from the pro's on how I should finish this off.

Nice job.. Looks great. With that color scheme, I think the white sign would stand out more..

yea bubba I just need to find one. I have had kind of a hard time finding one. funtronics has one but the measurements just don't add up. I also need to paint the white on the sides before I can call it done.

thanks. It is my first one and my kids think it is pretty cool so I think I might keep it.
If I keep it, instead of the coke on the sides i may just put OU magnets for now, seeing that we are Sooner fans.

I can also have white vinyl sides made for it. They look great. This is what I did for this machine. It is just white vinyl with the have a coke cut out so the red paint shows through. No paint is needed and you just stick it on and your done. It couldn't be easier.
