Late to the party...My Farnsworth

[NakedMoleRat]

Okay, so my brother-in-law got me into Warehouse 13 this month and like so many others....Loved the Farnsworth. I began to go through threads looking for stuff, only to see the big C&D's that hit. So I began to look for other items. Tackle box $10.00 from Hong Kong on eBay. The switches and dials and lens, etc. I didn't score perfect ones, but I got them all local at Keisub electronics instead of shipping from 4 different vendors. $18.00. The view screen is a push light lense from Walmart $1.00. The camera lens was a half roung for .66 cents. The faceplate I had engraved at a trophy shop on brass colored plastic. I was quoted a price of $18.00, but when I went to pick it up, he called it a 'sample' and didn't charge me. So, withour further ado, my roughly $30.00 Farnsworth.

Not perfect, but I still think it's nice.

That came out really great! Hard to believe the assortment of items going into it.

Amazing, especially the fact that it was only $30! thumbsup:thumbsup

Thank you, Gents. And one more thing. The center knob was an amp knob with an inlaid metal dot. JB Weld, sanding and paint....

Looks fantastic! That faceplate turned out really well done (with a heck of a price :lol). Congrats and thanks!

That looks great and really, really close to perfect. Wish I'd seen that before ordering all the parts from the main thread. ^_^
