oldjd Posted September 1, 2013 Author Share Posted September 1, 2013 Thread is updated. New logos for the Vic 20 and Commodore 64 and new items Mattel Aquarius dust cover. Take a look,there have been several updates in the last few months. As always thank you!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e5frog Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 (edited) Extremely nice, very professional look. Is it possible to get a breadbox cover without "64" nor "VIC-20", just the nice "C= commodore" logo? I hope someone can lend you/donate a C64C shell, should be someone in Texas I think, so I don't have to ship one from Sweden... Same goes for Channel F, that/those really need a dust cover, save that smoke colored plastic from scratches. Any spare ones of those in Texas?

e5frog Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 (edited) I sent an e-mail to my 95 cartridge buyers, perhaps someone more than me and my friend in New York would like to have one made for the Channel F. I have gotten one more interested at this time. As I would like to make it as easy as possible to make this happen I leave you with this large two color Channel F logo (keep clicking until it doesn't grow any larger). A nice touch would be a red F as that's how it usually looks on the carts. If I can help in any way, just ask.

Rik Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 (edited) Just like to say, i have all my consoles on nice display shelves, all fitted with Oldjd dust covers, and they look fantastic. Gives a real " Pro " look. I've gotten many nice compliments. Thanks Oldjd AND Barb of course for the great looking covers!!!!

Atari2008 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Just to add my voice to the Fairchild group, I'm that guy in New York who is interested in a Fairchild cover, and I'm looking for an inexpensive console to send over to be used for dustcover measurements.

oldjd Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 See thread for special offer thru 10/31 And to answer a few questions. 1) Making covers for obscure,low popularity makes, is very difficult to do,and especially without a case to use for measuring. As I have said in this thread,making a cover without the benefit of a case is like making drapes for a window you cannot see.Yes,measurements are helpful,but cases have little bumps,ridges,depressions which ultimately always effect the fit. 2)Suggestions are always welcome,but the same principal applies.Without the case,it is a shot in the dark. 3)Barb, is obsessed with the covers not only looking nice but also fitting well .I cannot begin to count how many covers were thrown out because she didn't like the way a stitch looked or the crease was not straight.She will not allow me to help because I do not cut the material the way she likes them.Which is why I am relegated to being the PR person 4)As I have said thru-out this thread,if you wish to "donate"your console for the betterment of the gaming community.proper credit and worldwide fame for your generosity will be yours! And finally,as always we both thank each and everyone who has made this endeavor a success!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e5frog Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I'll try and force Atari2008 to ship you a console (shell at least) for the Fairchild... I still wonder if it's possible to get the Commodore breadbin cover with just the "C= Commodore" logo part and not "VIC-20" or "C64" beneath it (as it's not stitched in the usual font), or will I have to buy it and then use a seam ripper to clear that part?

oldjd Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 Hmm a seam ripper?That sounds brutal! Let me have a business meeting with the head seamstress and discuss your breadbasket idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e5frog Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Yes, one of these: It wouldn't look good though with all the holes, I would want two with just the "c= (in blue and red as pictured) commodore" logo, my dear friend Atari2008 was interested in one of the others as well, we were planning on common shipping to Atari2008 and then I'll see if I can find a Fairchild machine on eBay to ship your way. Maybe I'll start to bother you with one for Videobrain as well... are there any more obscure ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e5frog Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Ï won a Fairchild console on eBay and I'd like to ship it to you (donation) so a cover for Fairchild can be made. Just need an address so the seller can ship it directly... as I also wrote in PM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blazing Lazers Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Hey all! I happen to have spare Channel F (Model 1) and Astrocade consoles, both with their plastic covers. I'd be happy to borrow them out so that measurements can be taken! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e5frog Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 I just bought a Channel F to ship, I and I guess mostly the seller is just waiting to get a delivery address... He can keep it. Plastic cover for the Channel F shouldn't be crucial to the dust cover design. If it could just be shipped then you can make a cover if you like or if you have the time, no strings attached.

bikeguychicago Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Do you have any covers for the Sears Super Video Arcade (Intellivision variant)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldjd Posted October 8, 2013 Author Share Posted October 8, 2013 Do not have covers for the Sears Video Arcade yet. I did notice that the Sears console(beige color) is a bit taller then the original Master Intellivision console.And as noted in previous comments,there just is not sufficient demand to make them-yet-. And as an opportunity to bump the thread,check out the new covers for: NES 101 Sega 16 bit Mattel Aquarius ...........and yes coming soon,thanks to a couple of members the Fairchild System Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmart604 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 If anyone is on the fence about buying any of these...do it now! I've bought about 20 of these from Barb and oldjd and I couldn't be happier. Great, friendly folks to deal with too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldjd Posted October 13, 2013 Author Share Posted October 13, 2013 A big thank you to Chris AkA Cmart! One of a kind. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: And, time for the semi-monthly bump.

e5frog Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Got my delivery from my dear friend Atari2008. Beautiful, wonderful, well packed and fits very well, I asked especially to get just the commodore-logo without anything extra: Corners are a little pointy, it could use a cut in each corner to get a flap in the back if you wanted to use it with a hooked up (but turned off) computer. Possibly a rounded cutout like other dustcovers. Like this monitor cover: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/173745-which-12-inch-atari-monitor-is-this-dust-cover-supposed-to-fit/ I'm guessing the little oily petroleum smell will wear off eventually. I like Barb's signature on the inside! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
