SuperTrooper Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 The counter looks great. You'll have a top notch blaster in no time. Quote
Smitty Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 Very nice looking counter, what would say you have invested in the counter in materials and time? Quote
Thumper[TK] Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 Awesome work. Looking at your photos it seems so simple. Any chance you created a tutorial at the same time? Quote
TKDUEUNO Posted April 16, 2008 Report Posted April 16, 2008 TOTALLY AWESOME!!! That's what I wanted to do, but since I spent sooo many hours on the blaster, I decided to buy a real metal socketcounter from TK_MD... Great work there, respect! -Pablo Quote

carbonitekid Posted April 22, 2008 Report Posted April 22, 2008 Having been inspired by yours I thought I would have a go my self. I utilised your tutorial and the pics of the real thing found in this thread: http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=1071 What do you think of the results? Sorry for the lousy pics.

ThayNerd[TK] Posted April 23, 2008 Report Posted April 23, 2008 Thanks for sharing that tutorial with us Peter! Quote
TK-9609 Posted April 23, 2008 Report Posted April 23, 2008 Great tutorial! carbonitekid what did you use for the actual counter in the back of it? Quote
carbonitekid Posted April 23, 2008 Report Posted April 23, 2008 Great tutorial! carbonitekid what did you use for the actual counter in the back of it? The number strip was part of a decal stuck to a trip switch (?) found in the junk pile at work, and the curved plastic cover is part of a plastic tube dental drill bits come packaged in . The wife grabbed a handfull from the dental practise she works at 12 months ago. She thought I may find a use for them one day. She knows me to well. Always had a habit of building stuff from what I can re cycle, the three prongs on the front are made in part from the inner workings of cig lighters. Quote
