Can you fix any problem by bending? Why yes. At least per the previous owners (who knows which one) of my JP.
Shooter lane microswitch activator? Bent into la-la land.
Individual ball trough switches? Bend them up! Don't bother replacing the diode or the switch.
How about the often troublesome 7ths ball through? Make it look like an L and you are all set!
Anyone else get the bends?
I was able to fix some by unbending, but some needed replacement (as the bend didn't fix the problem the bender was apparently trying to fix in the first place)
