Can someone tell me what Pinbot says the first time you send a ball into the Pinbot mini play field?

It sounds like "Radiate corporal staircase"

Thanks

Those caps look nice but I think these EVO Britecaps I linked to will really brighten up that area, so much so that you will be able to see the stars. They have 10 cool white LED's that shine on the playfield from underneeth and the 20 on top are angled so it doesn't create hot spots that can be bothersome. I have put them on just about everything.

Yes it was getting late and the quote feature used here is more difficult to use with less features then other forums.

Funny what MustangPaul said about motivating us. Once I saw his pop bumper pics 9 months ago on this other restoration thread I was hooked

I can understand how that happened being so late. Below is what I was trying to tell you. Unfortunately I cant seem to figure out how to post or insert pic's into PM's so I had to give you old fashion links that you are going to have to copy and paste into your internet browser .

Way back in the beginning another Pinside member and I told you that you kinda had what we were looking for and posting the following pics of previous design that fell off the market due to them looking to similar to the game or whatever. I'm not sure to be honest as many things are here and today gone tomorrow.

These links to pics below is exactly the sort of theme and motif that we felt matched the game the best of anything out there and could use as inspiration for what we liked in the past.

If you know how to post pics in a PM the please let me know as that would make this a thousand times easier vs copy/ pasting links.

Take care Dan

This was side art made by another member that I wanted to get and though that it fit the theme much better then his newest version

Here is that members newest version that I dont feel matched the theme as well as the one he posted above

Let me know if these PM work or else I will just have to make a traditional thread with posts so we can easily communicated with pictures instead of using all of these confusing links.

Thanks, I put a lot of work into her. As for the shuttle ramp I'm using a spot lamp with a SMD twin flex in purple near the scoop and another one in the back. Back in February I removed everything off the top of my playfield except the face mechanism so I could clean and polish every nook and cranny. I then went to town with the LED's by ordering up lots of LED star posts, tons of LED strips in all sorts of colors and various styles and colors of wedge and bayonet bulbs to get the exact look I was going after and I'm still not done. I'm going to wait until I do my reproduction playfield swap to go all out.

Here's a early video I shot to show to some of my league buddies but I didn't really want to showcase it here just yet because like everything else in my life its not finished. On a funny side note I turns out member 85Vette and I are both using ice blue's from Comet for under the heart beat ramp at the same time without knowing what the other was doing.

Colors in real life are much more subtle then how they appear on video which has the purple and blues over saturated.

One day I'd like to put together a well produced and narrated youtube video of my "shop job" because I love watching those sorts of videos and there's not that many out there.

Yes I bought a couple of the 7 LED Comet strips but have now moved on to Coin Takers 6 LED strips. I'm pretty sure I'm running 10 different LED strips in my HS2 and will be adding a two more higher voltage strips to use as red and blue flashers.

P.S I don't own a Mustang Pinball machine so wrong guy?

I thought the pic I posted on page 4 was pretty "decent" without over saturated colors. I can go through my phone and look for more if this pic doesn't suffice. Whats happening is that I used blue LED's for her eyes that are too bright.

Its more then just a yellow heart.

I believe every red insert in a regular version was yellow in early run, except the double scoring one in the center.

^ The inside of your cabinet looks fantastic! I like how you painted all of it vs leaving the bottom bare like people do just because thats how the factory did it. Everything else looks top notch as well.

Also Ive never asked this before but why do lots of people put what usually looks like a 1.5" rubber around the prop rod?

It looks like everything is a bit too big and her arm looks like a darker shade of gray.

Keep up the good work.

Any difference between the ramps linked above and these ones from Marco? besides the price...

I know some replacement ramps fit better then others due to different thicknesses.

Just removing the janky mylar and adding some LED's increased the value of my BOP an easy 30%+

Dare I say the playfield looks almost as good as new after a few good coats of 100% carnauba wax and the whole machine is now better then new thanks to LED's which allow me to play in the dark and better ball action vs old bubbling mylar.

Get that mylar off people!

Well thats beyond disappointing to hear as his first batch's clear received RAVE reviews, some members going as far to say that it's the only pf they're NOT sending out for additional clear.

If mine shows up looking like it's going to need additional clear then I don't have a problem waiting for the 3rd run and this time order up the pre-production version and then sell my NIB 2nd batch to someone.

Does BOP have the standard John Trudeau flipper gap?

How long does the 2.0 install take. ?

I'm having family over tomorrow and would like to know how long it should take someone who has installed his fair share of mods

Thanks

Just a general question I have related to multiple games including BOP that has always been on my mind but never able to find the answer on my own.

Why do I usually see a single 1.5" sized rubber slid over the play field prop rod on most machines?

There are even machines currently leaving the Stern factory with them on the prop rod.

If it was intended to be an extra item I'd expect it to be in the same bag with the extra plastics and bulbs so it wouldn't get all dried out.
