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!

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?

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. :lol:

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.
