And lastly, what I did last week was working on both center ramp, slingshots with improvised ball stop and the playfield back panel.
At a local woodstore, i had a look at the leftover cuts which i could have what I wanted for free, and found a reflective black wood piece with perfect height (15 cm) which i brought home and cut to correct width, and installed L-brackets to fasten it to the payfield. I also have designed an initial ramp in 3d, which I printed and attached to it. I then took it off and cut out holes for both the center ramp and the wireform on the rght side.
I have modelled a "ramp"/horizontal subway for the back of the panel which will lead the ball from the center ramp down to the right wireform, and im currently waiting for a friend who will split the model up so I can print it. Hope my measurements are correct!
Lastly I also bought and installed playfield support brackets, for making my life abit easier and not having to lean all on slingshot brackets.
Oh yes, I also customized slingshots with a ball stop for the wireform, as I struggle to bend them in the correct circle:
I was recommended by Scott Danesi to use Mutimorphic power entry board instead of the replacement power distribution board, and also because it might be more designed for my setup and with better "key" placements, preventing stupid guys like me to plug them in wrong hehe.
So I have drawn new schematics on how to wire it up, and will hopefully star the wiring this weekend.
PHEUW! Its fun, obsessive and there is always something to do
