In my living room

blog-0425776001341894161.jpgIn my living room, the closest-to-complete setup yet. The 2 left-most machines have 2" caps filled with "LEGO candy" for $1. The 4th machine is 2" caps filled with LEGO arches, bricks and slopes, as you can see from my Photoshopped sign which is hanging in the machine. Machines #3 and #5 are set for 1" caps at $.50, which I'm still stuffing.

The bill changer is at my bro's shop, where I'm still building a deeper red box to accommodate it.

These machines are bolted to the box tops [i](you can see pairs of unused screws atop the right box)[/i]. The handles facing front are less than ideal. But the loaded machines [i](and empty boxes themselves)[/i] are pretty darn heavy. So I don't expect too much trouble from horseplay. The latches on the sides [i](not seen)[/i] are locked, so kids can't un-secure the lids, making them wobbly.

I am having second thoughts about all my machines being the same green color. It might be boring. And the same thing - especially - for all the 2" caps being the same yellow. Also, the AA 2" caps are not very transparent. I would rather the kids could see more of what was in the caps when looking into the machines.

Caps are translucent to hide the toy inside! Keep the kids guessing.

Personally, I like your color combo. It's very Green Bay!

Good luck Mr. Webb!
