Aztarac Bezel Reproductions: Any interest?

[jetusenet]

Hi;

I will be commissioning the fabrication of reproduction Aztarac bezels next Friday and was wondering if anyone else would be interested........

The pricing structure is as follows:

$250 for one

$165 2-4

$147 5-10

I am not doing this for the money. The total will be exactly what it costs me to receive the bulk shipment, then the re-packing and shipping to each individual, not a penny more.

Since I will be getting one, as long as there is one more person interested, the price will be $165.00 plus shipping. Of course, if there are 5 or more people interested, the price drops again.

There is one caveat, I was informed that there is a possibility of small blemishes due to the fabrication process, see quote below:

"It will be nice and smooth in the dome area, but the flat area might have little marks or small dimples from being clamped"

That being said, you will be agreeing to accepting the product as is, as will I.

A BIG thank you to Chris M and James for all their help getting me the required info, especially James for taking the time to produce the required shop drawings that were needed to make this project a reality.

Please respond to this thread if you are interested. The cut-off will be midnight, next Thursday, April 21st as the order will be placed on Friday, April 22nd.

Peace

Jeff

Jeff did you get these made?

Hi;
Sorry for not updating this thread in a timely manner.....

Short story: No - I did not have them make. But I did happen to pick up an original in the mean time.

Long story: I was about to sign the contract and then decided to check the dimensions given to me, just in case. It was a very good thing that I had decided to do that as the size of the overall bezel was not correct and I thereby assumed that the rest of the specs given to me were also in error.
And not by "just a bit" but if memory serves me correct, by INCHES! I just threw a tape over the front of my game to get a rough measurement and it was obvious that the design would never have worked.
I contacted the gentleman who assisted me and he had no explanation available.

If you wanted to take over the project, I could give you all my contact info for the manufacturing facility that I had tracked down.......

Peace
Jeff
