I was searching on ebay for skulls and came across a guy in the uk who molded them. I asked for six and paid when hed made em. I can post his details if you wish to contact him. I told him what I was trying to re create and said he might get some repeat orders.
 
Anyone else had happy birthday Damien come up on the dmd when turning SS on today
 
Read this in bed at 2 mins too midnight. Ran downstairs like a demented fool to turn on. Nope no birthday message! Not even checked what date is set up lol.
 
Jobs for today

1 fit remote batt holder

2 fit new batteries

3 check date in settings

4 wait 1 yr,or use the deloean, or set wrong date
 
I would go with the Delorean option. However, you should do this first otherwise you will have to do the other 3 jobs again.

Yes, so what does it mean other than someone called Damien has a birthday???
 
Heard great story about a wise **** ringing up his insurance and chatting to the novice insurance lady.

And have you made any modifications?

Yep ive installed a flux capacitor!

Oh I cant seem to find that on my system ( the youth of today), will you hold while I talk to my supervisor

Yep ok

My supervisor says thats fine, but we can only insure you up to 88mph



Think the supervisor got one over on both of em!

I've painted the skulls with gesso to seal the foam and have a good painting surface, not managed to get a colour I'm happy with yet tho :eek:

Ended up painting them with house hold magnolia. I didn't have any dry paint so got some soot from the log burner and rubbed it on the skulls in places. Clear coated the lot. Then a final test of the led's before mounting on a board.
