Title: Throw this sh*t away! Be careful what you tape up.
Post by: shortrackskater on June 24, 2014, 10:34:58 PM

This is a useless post but I'm making it anyway to see who's reading.  :rotfl:
After a number of years, I threw out a piece of slot glass!
I had saved an S plus reel glass "just in case." I took it out today and part of the tape from my fantastic job of bubble wrapping peeled the paint off...oops! I'm cleaning out my garage and found parts in my Money Storm slant top... that I'm selling...and there was the glass in the bubble wrap and the paint... in the tape, and in the bubble wrap.
Now that the glass is in the trash...should I break it just to insure its "death?"  :wave:

Had my camera all set up...glass in trash and 15 pound weight ready for the "kill." Then I thought... hmmm electrical tape?
I taped over the missing paint and look! Here it is! I'm going to give it to my sister who will probably make something out of it for her game room which has a few other IGT slot glasses on the wall.
Sorry... I just couldn't kill it.

Reel glasses like this make great picture frames: put pics of the kids or pets behind the
3 reel openings, and the appropriate text behind the others. My sister used pics of her
triplets, and the word JACKPOT!!!. Old 'Nam buddy has a 5-reeler with pics of our squad,
and the text TERRORS OF THE TRIANGLE.

You're alive! I sent a few PM's ... hope you got them.
Yeah... I'm saving the reel glass. There will be a new life for it too. Good ideas!

Think your going to be on the next episode of Hoarders.  :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Actually I have a framed Bally EM reel glass with pictures of my family hanging over my desk at work. The glass came out of the El Rancho Casino a week before they imploded it.

We don't have those here...only the OC marketplace, which probably costs $100 or so just to get a space! I miss traditional swap meets/flea markets.
My sister is turning it into a picture frame.  :applause:

That's a cool way to repurpose it!
