Restoring an Old C= Amiga Sign
Short story
I live in the southern suburbs of Adelaide, Australia. In a retro group i follow on Facebook someone posted a sign that had been ruined by a paint over yet survived the past 25 years outside pinned to a fence. Went to location, did a deal, picked it up and starting to restore it. Its NOWHERE near complete, but hopefully some messages here will help the pain in the fingers and shoulders go away. Enjoy. Original March 13th Post: http://users.on.net/~ivanw/Amiga/Amiga1.JPG http://users.on.net/~ivanw/Amiga/Amiga2.JPG http://users.on.net/~ivanw/Amiga/Amiga3.JPG http://users.on.net/~ivanw/Amiga/Amiga4.JPG http://users.on.net/~ivanw/Amiga/Amiga5.JPG Will update this post in there future, so if you are interested or have questions, follow this thread. Thanks. March 25th Update: http://users.on.net/~ivanw/Amiga/Amiga6.JPG Worked over an hour on it today and i have a blister on my finger tip from it. Last edited by IvanEBC; 25 March 2017 at 08:12.

That's really cool
 Is it made out of sheet metal?

Great stuff! I used to build my own light signs. The largest one is still mounted on a wall in my living room
The image used is a printed one that I found on Aminet.edit: another pic of this sign can be found in my gallery (last pic). Last edited by hipoonios; 16 March 2017 at 16:01. |

Very cool! Good luck on the restore -- show pics when you're done.
