Recharged Watts Board - NC State Wolfpack

When I first got back into the hobby, I bought a UT painted Watts Board from Beenutt. I quickly put a Charles Lane field cover on it and used it in the Dixie League the last two years and the SEC this past spring. I decided that the field and board needed a makeover, so I took it apart and stripped everything, including the Watts-painted UT field beneath the NC State field cover. I did this because the "humps" of the painted UT checkerboard endzones and the big T at midfield was present on the field even though it had a cover. You can see the checkerboard humps in the "before" picture. I painted the frame black and re-glossed it as it was kind of an orange-tinted wood stain before. I replaced the old field cover with a brand new Weirdwolf cover and it now looks amazing. I am very happy with the new look and very much look forward to playing in the Dixie College League next spring.

Here are a few pictures, including the before picture. I do not have any "original" before pictures of it in it's UT greatness.
