Wondering if anyone has an idea about a flat digital readout for a gun mod.
I found digital counters for pretty cheap, but I'd have no idea of how to go about having them read 20 or 40 or whatever. What I need is the equivalent of a calculator -- something I punch in a number and have that number appear on the side of the gun. It's a bit cliche, but I like the effect.
Here's the kind of thing I'm looking for:

http://cgi.ebay.com/0-56-7-segment-...342?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item48401b9366
I guess what I need to know is -- how do I make these devices read out a specific number?
Any help would be great!
