Quoted from pinwiztom:On Bank A Ball and King of Diamonds there are so many connectors and other apparatus stuff in the backbox
there was not enough room to secure the jones plugs to the head or light baffle.
The jones plug board hung by wax cord suspended through the head hole on mine. Keeping tension off the wires.
Quoted from pinhead52:yea but where's the webbing? here's a rough attempt at blue webbing[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Good eye on my webbing fail, it was way too thin and I wasn’t redoing it. I actually restored it after selling it and The buyer was thrilled as it was. That’s one of the main reasons I purchased another to get a redo. It really is one of my favorites to play.

This thread inspired me. Doing my 2nd restore on my keeper Bank A Ball. I believe I got the webbing right now... This was a water damaged machine requiring a ground up restore.

I do (try) for playfield, some better than others. I used Montana cans for the cabinet.

Better than their Spider Effect. That comes out super high pressure and is easy to overdo. This is much easier to control. Comes in black red blue and silver.
