Post subject:  finished my motiontracker kit

Hello all,

I´ve finally finished my Nickatron motion tracker kit.
Took some sanding and filling but came together nicely. Stickers for the side numbers , calculator panel and screen were included.
I added a real t28 calculator panel and vivitar flash parts. The bottom knob is a turnswitch that turns on the flashlight leds inside the viewer.
The leds are attached with hot glue (lots :lol: ) to the batterypack which is held in place with magnets for easy removal.
Colour: spraycan RAL 7006, itś between olivedrab and brown bess and a coat of medium gloss varnish.
The base is a piece of oak I had laying around, coated with high gloss varnish.

All in all a nice kit,

No it is a real knob from an old radio, it fits righton the potentiometer/switch that I implemented. The kit did came with a resin copy of the knob that was used on the ghost trap.
