Freitag, September 17th, 2010Making of Magic standard Merlin Mod
Montag, September 13th, 2010Hi Folks,
last week I tried to illuminate a Merlin with a blue Led.
If you want a Merlin including this magic RGB-LED you can order it right here

I am using double sided adhesive for position the led

Oh no, so much work … There must be an easier way..
I opened the pinball like this and put in the led pcb:
The tricky part is the screw on the left site…
I used bothsided adhesive to get the screw at the right position:
and screwed this way
