Etienne, what do you think, is it possible to make a repro from that middle insert of the Zaccaria coin door?
I mean the one between the 2 red ones with the big "Z".


sure, only the embossing will be difficult..

scan it, measure it and send it  ;D

maybe a piece of blanco alu sticker on top of this original metal plate to "copy" the embossing, fill that up with glue and stick it on top of a piece of plexi could work..

edit:

i forget, i want to make the red one too  ;)

Aren't there better materials to make a mold of this ? Some plastic like stuff ?

Fortunatly i have also a zacc coindoor, the logo in vector, and the correct font, so it is not a really big problem that you dont have that sticker...

i need to rephrase that, i say that you dont have that sticker, what i mean is that you dont have that sticker... yet  ::)

just a little more patience my friend  ;)

[duck and cover mode on]
Maybe our very reliable RAM controls can do that, i heard that they are very good in reproduction parts
[duck and cover mode off]


seriousely, maybe with plaster you can make a cast, and then melt tin / zink and pour that cast ?

You could try a 3D printing/fabrication service.

3: Irish Atari Alternative - Ready for Printing.


one question / remark regarding that sticker:
i've checked various cabs which use it and there is not a single cab where the sticker is made up of one part, it's always cut right through the middle. so will this sticker be offered in one pieces or in two pieces? how about adding a fine line right in the middle as a guide for cutting if this is done in one piece?
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

dont you see the pinky squares in there ?

those are the "cutlines"

so yes, they are a set, but two separate stickers, so i can add only one half if you like,
on the other hand, there is still space on the sheets, and $$ technically speaking its the same price for one separate as for the set since i calculated the estimated price based on the set counting as 1 sticker..
same is for the #11 sticker that is a set with #11a..

i think also that the price will be less than the estimated price per sticker, so youre good to go  ;)

I'm very late to the game, but this pic is from the US Atari Football 2-player cocktail.  I see one of these is being run, but the Amps and Watts one is not.  Wish I had a better shot or a scan of it.  Unfortunately, it's out of town and I won't be back there for a couple of weeks.

just in the time that i have stated, so no worries

i was planning in July to take it to the printer, but i am not sure yet due to holidays of my collegues that i can make it in july , so if you can deliver better shots , i can still make that.
