Oh OK, now I recall you from a while back. Hey thanks for coming on over. Are you going to be selling these light boards on here, and how much, or just offering the plans?

RETRO1... I have been going nuts for a year trying to find a dream scanner (see this thread, near the bottom of the first page for details on what my DREAM scanner would be like: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=992&p=8138&hilit=dr ... nner#p8138)

Could you do a scanner with 32 lights???

Hi Guys

hay goldcylon i must apologise for not getting here sooner

to tell the truth i am not the brains behind this scanner my mate does the ciruitboard and digi chip

i just solder all the parts together and fix the screens into the cylon eye piece

we did once do a board with 24 LEDS
but i decided the way we had it with 12 with the screen infront was ok for the cylon eye

if i am allowed i can offer these as kits or already buildt together
the coast would be as a kit round about 30$ and buildt up about 45$ plus shipping of cource
ill have to check this first with my mate but i dont see anyproplems
by the way i also do the TOS viper light kits and BSG viper light kits

and a few years back i did a few cylon rifles
got a few signed by the original starbuck

I have seen these before and talked with a few times. Your in Germany if I recall.
Would love to hear about the eye scanner boards if up for sale and place them in the Cylon stores

very cool - thanks for sharing the pictures.
I may be interested in scanners as well. Actually I may be interested in about 10 sets!

@Retro: Welcome aboard! I'd be interested in 2 scanners if you decide to make them available. Thanx!
