Repaired some broken solder joints, sanded out the biggest scuffs and polished most of the scratches out of the screen. Oh yeah, and the paint job.

My mom's been doing stained glass for years, so she's got one of the decent ones. I've been dying to do some projects with that and her Cricut...

Not sure how Lemmy's gonna butcher this, it looks like it played nicely. Did a couple versions. Tried to be as close to the original kearning and font ratios as I could just eyeballing it. I'm more a fan of the top one, personally. Feel free to use it if you do decide to do it. Let us know how it turns out!

Those kick ass! If I can get a decent vinyl cut I will go with the top one. It looks pretty legit. Thanks!

No problem at all, first time I've had an excuse to open gimp in like a year.
