Steve,
I know this is an old post, but I have a Can Can that's been sitting up for years that I recently started to restore. Your pictures are awesome and quite impressive. My biggest problem on my machine is that some one many years ago decided to paint it with polka-dots instead of the original graphics so I have nothing to go by for the original Can Can girl images on the machine. I've been doing my own "amateur" bingo machine restorations for a while now and have a few other notable games including Miami Beach, Lido, Hawaii, and a few others but I have never had to repaint a whole machine with nothing to go off of to make stencils. Any ideas or suggestions on this? I have searched the common (and not so common) normal spots, Marco, ebay, etc... and no one seems to have a stencil set for this machine. Any help would be much appreciated.

Steve, Sorry for delay I've been out of pocket. Yes, I definitely still need them, I don't want to put you through too much trouble. Any way I can get you to mail them to me? I will be happy to paypal you for your costs/trouble.

Thanks Steve, PM sent.

Steve,
Thanks so much again for all of your help with this, I sincerely appreciate it. You really did an incredible job on this machine and the others you've posted on. I've attached a couple of quick pics I took last night to give you an idea of what I'm working with, I've got a long way to go. I was able to start stripping down the back last night and you can see the faint remnants of the original art work. Not sure why anyone in their right mind would have painted polka dots over it.

Steve,
Can't thank you enough for your help and the Master Stencils, without them I don't know what I would have done. I don't have the space, a setup, or even the talent to properly paint like yourself, so I did everything by hand. Of course, I had some bleed through around the stencils because of that method, and color-wise I just matched the best I could using the pics you sent me, but overall I'm relatively happy with the end result. I finished it up a few weeks ago, I just haven't had the time to post. This certainly isn't even close to the level of yours, but as I said, I'm moderately happy with it. Again, I can't thank you enough. After tracing stencils multiple times, cutting multiple times, painting multiple times, I realize the insane level of work you put into yours. I've touched up and even re-painted machines before over the faded paint, but this was my first from the ground up using stencils.

Thanks Steve, you've been a tremendous help.
