8 TRACKING!

I decided to add a Stereo to CAM-AIR and I thought an 8 Track Player would be a Fun choice. It's been over 20 years since I've seen an 8 Track so I Googled some images for reference.
I started with a length of Plastic Strip and drilled a hole in each end. Looks like Ala Kart Tail Lights will make Great Knobs!

I covered the Strip with Chrome Bare Metal Foil and glued 2 Tail Lights in the holes. I cut another piece of plastic to make an 8 Track Tape. I rounded the edges and sanded it smooth.

The 8 Track Tape Titles were made on the printer. I adjusted the Printer Preferences so I could print real small.

WE GOT MUSIC!

Here is the 8 Track Player. I used a toothpick to apply the Silver Acrylic on the Knobs. The BEATLES White Album... one of my favorites!
