@ Clockwork ~ Before any tiles were glued down the pitch shape was precisely worked out. This was so I could see if the board was veering around. And yes, the corners, edges , wings and Endzones were marked out on the plain wood base beforehand.

I was thinking about using the scenery that you are using with my board, and I'm quite pleased with the results that you seem to be getting although high many sets did you buy?

Really awesome job man! I love the lights, they really add to the character of the pitch! (Plus im sure it would really help those of us with bad eye-sight in the dark) Was the wiring easy to do?

including new (modern) things like advertisement or in your case "floodlights" is always a matter of personal preference...

I think its a great and original touch!

Greta job and thanks for sharing WIP

Simple enough with a basic knowledge of electronic components, mainly how to gang up LED's to work at certain voltages...

If the need arises, I can draw up a quick layout of connection and what you need.
