Title: Extreme Customization
Post by: angryninjas on August 23, 2013, 09:13:00 PM
So I finished up a new project today... as if my custom Breaking Bad kit wasn't custom enough, I added a few extras.  Customized buttons, tied in a "Bonus Game" themed feature to a mini photon progressive in the tracking bar, and the biggest mod of all is the 3" deep shadow box offering a sneak peak into Walter White's underground lab.  Inside the shadow box is a Walter White bobble head, a Breaking Bad lab background, and "blue meth" crystals (blue rock candy).  The whole shadow box is a sealed plexi box, so no worries about the dust from the rock candy crystals.  It's hard to tell the depth from the pics, as I'm just using my phone camera, but it's 3" deep and installed where the "Insert Bill Below" sticker usually goes behind the glass.  Was tricky getting it mounted just right so it didn't touch the side of the third reel, and yet still clear the cabinet mounted door optics.  As far as the mini photon progressive installed in the tracking bar, you can't really read the text from the pics, but it says "Work For Gus" and then describes how Gus offers you the following amount (digital progressive amount) if you decide to work for him for in his lab for three months.  The progressive increases $0.01 for every ounce of crystal sold while you contemplate his offer (one penny for every quarter dropped), so it really ties in the progressive to the theme, almost making the progressive feel like a bonus game.  Here are pics, although they don't really do it justice... I need to use a regular camera, lol:

Thanks.  It looks much better in person.  The pics don't show the depth and shows too much reflection off of other things.  Maybe I'll try a video later and see if that captures it a little better, since I can move the camera in and out.
