I finally got mine done and I have the parts to make a few extras.

Here is a link to what it looks like:

The propeller is not from a toy, it's all metal, the proper scale, and I
painted it black with white tips which I think it compliments the look
of the biplane very well. The two tone paint job while a little more
time consuming allows you to see the movement of the propeller much
easier. I can paint the propeller all black, all white, black with white
tips, or white with black tips based on your preference. I can also
leave the wire leads bare for you to solder onto the lamp socket or I
have some insulated alligator clips lying around that I can put on the
ends for you if you want a temporary installation instead.

I am by no means a professional mod maker like some of our resident
experts here but I did my best to make a simple yet effective mod which
had some nice style along with great function. I didn't have plans to
make and sell these but I have been asked by quite a few people so I am
making them available to those who would like one of my extras. These
are all done by hand and may have slight variances or imperfections
depending on how much I have to drink when I make them ;o)


The price is $40 plus $5.15 for US shipping which is by Priority Mail
flat rate small box.

Since I have received so much correspondence asking for these I will
simply post this on RGP and the first 4 to reply will have dibs.

If you are one of the first 4 to reply to this thread you can then email
me at jesseawilson at cox dot net and I will confirm your order and give
you the email address you can send a PayPal payment to. I can have these
out by Tuesday (since Monday's are always crazy I don't want to say Monday).

To be fair to others, you will have 24 hours to make the payment or your
mod will go to the next person in line if there is one.


Thanks for your time,

Jesse

Ok the first 4 to reply to the thread are as follows:

Aaron, Marty, Jeremy and Mike.


I have already been in contact with everyone but Mike so Mike feel free
to email me at jesseawilson at cox dot net and I will give you further
instructions.

I guess I could do a few more if there were a few more people who still
needed one however I have no intention of mass producing these by any means.

Thanks everyone for your interest in these and I hope you enjoy them.

Sounds like I have enough interest to do a few more, if you're
interested in being on a list email me at jesseawilson at cox dot net
and I will add you to it. If you don't email and end up just waiting for
the next batch, I can't guarantee I will do enough to cover more then
the list I have.

Thanks,

Jesse

Ok all payments have been received so these 4 are spoken for.

Again if you would like to be in the list for another batch please email
me directly at jesseawilson at cox dot net so I can try to secure enough
parts to cover them all.


Thanks,


Jesse

For those of you that complain about sterns "cheap" toys. Have you
really looked at B/W's toys? the planes they put on IJ are shit.
Flimsy vacuumed formed plastic shells. I'd take a toy from target
over that, any day.

Btw, your mod looks great.

Hello!

I just acquired a Williams Indiana Jones pinball machine and would love to add one of the biplane propeller mods. Do you, by chance, have one for sale?

Thank you!
