    Smile My next project.

    I recently aquired this Betty Boop plexiglas and frame. betty.jpgbetty2.jpg

    Think I'll make it into a topper for my Betty Boop machine. I'am going to try and build a 3" deep box the shape of the plexiglas, so I mount the lights inside, and then have to make a stand for it and maybe a candlestick light on top.

    I have alot of "tinkering time" so I guess I'll see what happens.
    What if...​the ​HOKEY POKEY, is what it's all about?

    Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

    I have really enjoyed the toppers you have done so far.

    I'm sure that will make an excellent topper!!

    Looking forward to seeing that one completed

    Reminds me that somewhere I also have a Betty Boop with a Topper, although I didn't make mine myself, it does add a nice look to the machine (also has an IGT handle and Autostop which it came with already fitted)

    Your machine looks great with your topper.

    Got the topper finished and mounted today.

    It took a little bit to build the 3" deep box, to mount the light in, with all of the bends and curves of the plexiglas frame, but it did come out as I had pictured it in my head.

    Here's some pictures.

    That was a few years back, since then I've added a candlestick light, also.
