Quoted from s000m:

Hi all,
I've been busy getting my pin ready for Pinfest here in the UK.
However I can't for the life of me to get my skillshot shooting reliably.
At present it makes its way round the orbit, through the gate and sometimes doesn't have enough momentum to hit the target and 1 in 3 times will fall short and just end up in the roll over switches.
I've tried the following
- Replaced the one way gate as it was sometimes sticking
- Replaced the coil sleeve and spring for the shooter lane coil.
- Adjusted the coil to get it to seat behind the ball
-Adjusted and fiddled with the shooter lane plastic, moving it back and forward a mm or so.
I suspect my shooter lane plastic is slightly warped as it doesn't rest straight.
The ball will often hop as it comes off the ramp and into the orbit. That's where it appears to loose momentum.
Any suggestions here would be greatly appreciated.

Quoted from LeeChaolan:

Just installed pinball bulb's LED lighting kit and it looks fantastic, but I've noticed one of the coffin lights stays on dimly during gameplay. Looks fine when a ball is locked or in attract mode, but just during game play its partially lit as below. I checked the voltages on the bulbs. The one that's staying on is 3.1 and the one that is behaving normally is 2.8. Any suggestions? Works fine when I put old style bulbs back in it. When you view it through the phone camera you can see its flashing ever so slightly in tandem with the skill shot face light on the back.

Quoted from wcbrandes:

Yup looks great! Any prices yet or did I miss it on the count I'm lazy and don't want to search for it

Quoted from RudeDogg1:

There is no list they will be for sale in a couple weeks. Think I will be doing them in waves of 3-4 cuz they take so long to cast and paint. But they won’t be limited I’ll keep going until no one wants them or I get fed up of making them

Quoted from SDM0:

Until then - what is the best way to glue these so the glue is clear and doesn't show thru the ramp on the other side? And holds it really well?

Quoted from paulie484:

I sourced mine from here

picture hanging hook cut and bent out for the base
the idea is that they match the dmd graphic when the ball drains ![quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from RobDutch:

Finally joined the club yesterday! Cabinet still has its original red color and game plays almost as it should Any advice on must have mods or things to look for?
Few issues:
-Cab not perfect, few holes and scratches.
-Mist ball works, but gate at left side does not open.
-Shooterlane switch not working.
-Multiple broken plastics.
Droptarget in the back does not always work.
-Pf dirty and has vertical lines, hope these will buff out. Maybe a protector is needed?

Hopefully that fixes your issue. In the event that you are still having problems you may want to reference the following link which details all the steps that I took a few years ago to fix a similar issue on my BSD.

Quoted from Gogojohnnyquack:

I just went through the whole long range opto thing. My BSD had the Homepin board when I got it and the Mist would work great for a few hours after power up, but would then fail. The issue turned out to be the transmitting opto. Considering the work that it takes to get to the optos I would consider going the 'Shotgun' approach, which is replacing the 24" board with the Homepin board if you don't already have it plus a new set of optos. You have to pull plastics and ramps to get to the optos so you may as well also clean everything while you're in there!

Quoted from Grandnational007:

Recap the 24 opto board (and throw a new inductor in it too). Takes 5 minutes and is less than $7 in parts, and you keep the original board. Just food for thought.

Quoted from DavidWhittle81:

Here is the brand and part number I used to replace the inductor on my 24 opto board: Fastron 11P-103J-50 Mouser has them in stock for $1.48 each. I replaced the caps and inductor with this one during my restoration and the board works fine now.

Quoted from Zee:

Couple strips from Comet as PinKitten said. Will be using their trim knobs to tone it down a bit.

Quoted from Spagano314:

I’m having a strange issue. When I turn the game on everything seems fine. No credit dot. If the game sits idle, the mist multiball tries to load. When the ball is shot from the shooter lane to the top right magnet it stays there shortly and then releases the ball onto the playfield and then drains and repeats the same pattern 2-3 times. No credit appears. During gameplay, the mist multiball does not work and instead when starting the multiball there is not ball traveling across the playfield but just starts a normal multiball. If you put the game into test mode the mist mode functions perfectly. When you stop the test after a couple cycles, the game functions normally and the mist multiball functions exactly as it should. Once the game is turned off and then turned back on again, the idle most mode starts acting weird again and doesn’t return to normal until running another test. I know this is a very long winded problem, but has anyone else experience this? I have tried aligning the long range optos, cleaned optos, checked magnets, and that’s about it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
