[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 1028541, member: 325666"] Resurrected another C64 pcb ....but.. after checking I had all the parts I needed but 1 for a rebuild. The power plug escutcheon .. what to do ? Well ..I thought..I wonder if I could make one .. After some rummaging in my scrap metal box ..I found some used right angled aluminium stair riser edging. Not exact dimensions ..but close enough. So ..set about with a hacksaw ..some files and the press drill.. 4 hours later.. The result is in the photo .. (I do love a bit of metalwork repurposing)[ATTACH=full]110709[/ATTACH] Not perfect but close enough I think. I could spray it black ..but I actually quite like it silver. what do you guys think ..madness or obsession..lol rgds VS [/QUOTE]
