Cool Custom Falcons Board Finished...

I have been tinkering in my workshop the last month to come up with a more durable and attractive design...

This is a "Vintage" Atlanta Falcons board I just finished last night. It has a super heavy duty textured vinyl (tolex) upolstery covering and features retro field artwork from the early 80s era.

It was fun to build. I have a video after the pics with some overly dramatic theme music. At the end of the video I demonstrate my remote control switch that I incorporated for this board.

Here is the video...

The theme music makes it almost comical, but I had fun with it

Truly a work of art. I can't wait to welcome it into my home. As I told Dave, it deserves a marble pedestal.

Wink Grass Look...

Hey K-LO,

I guess it doesn't show well in the pics, the surface of the field is textured to look like grass or turf from far away. Here is a close up of the original artwork... Is this what you meant?
