and after nearly 4 days later the files are ready to be printed front... and the mask for the back as these are backlit, the orange is the cut outs where you see the top layer shining through! the numbers have a clear surround so more difficult to see in the preview, but are the files the printers need, there is also a cutout layer for the outside and holes cutting but that's not shown in those previews ready for the printers, hopefully will get there in the next day or to as also need a post office in another town that is not closed due to staff shortages (off because of coronavirus)

I did two lots of photos one with lights off and one with lights on hope this helps 👍

They are perfect, you're a gent😊

No pics handy but there as MPU4 rebuilds in the jubilee classic style cab

You could if you flicked the bastard, did one in a bowling alley in the bar at Finsbury park, held on the JP after resetting.

one thing I had a problem with while working on the reel files!! on one reel there was a 3 which needs to be a 4, and there is no 4 on any of the donor machine reels!!!!!! oh no!!!! where was I to get a 4 in the right style!!!!! suddenly had a brainwave! (it does not happen ofen) look on the donor machine glasses!! so took this picture! after a lot of work in photoshop (and a good few hours disappearing) I managed to put the correct gradient across the 4 so it matches as best as I can with the other numbers ok I am no photoshop expert! and that is well blown up in size!!!! cut down to size and test put over the original 3 and it looks ok!! and now the 3 is replaced by the 4!!! the shading around the 4 is also now sorted!! I think it matches in ok.

I cannot seem to get the tools to pressfitt the cables into the lamp holders or the spade terminals, not good when I have looms to make up containing well over 100 bulb holders! so see these today and thought “I wonder if I can do something with these!!!“ well I made these in about 10 mins they seem to work very well!! and if they don’t last long there are plenty more plastic strips to use! also made up the long yellow “red dwarf” disco button loom as the donor machine will need this made from the new wire I bought and a old coin mech to mpu5 connector cut down for the black connector, and a old recycled yellow connector for the other end

That would be me 😁

Looks fantastic 👌🏻
