I just finished building a wireless scoreboard for my game room and thought that I would share the completed project here in order to give others ideas in case someone else was interested in doing something similar.
I spent almost 2 solid months searching the web for a nice wireless scoreboard for my game room that wouldn't clash too much with the decor. Everything that I did find was either larger and/or more guaky than I wanted. I ended up building my own scoreboard and used a couple of 2 Digit Up/Down Counter Kits as the heart of the scoreboard. I'm not as saavy with circuits as I would like to be but I did end up soldering all of the LEDs and components onto each of the circuit boards. I think that it turned out pretty good, but I'm open to any constructive critisism. Please share your thoughts.
