Quoted from damadczar:Question for the group.
Would you strip your cabinet and apply new vinyl or keep it original just to fix button wear.
The rest of the cabinet has little wear and nice colors.
Better to make perfect or just leave original and cover with lollipop rails or button covers.

I had the same wear spots.

Quoted from Gorgar1:Thinking about this the Rom and tool Cost me around $30 (Aussie Dollars) now if I bugger it up it could cost me $300 in board repairs lol now is the upgraded rules in the new rom worth the risk?
It really is very low risk if you follow the advise above. Just go slow and be careful with the force applied to the chip and board. Also triple check the orientation and alignment when inserting the new rom. Go for it.
Quoted from fschlau:Excuse my language, but how the h*ll do i take away the apron, some screws are hidden so i cant reach them with any tool? Or am i missing something here?
I believe the apron is held on by the two screws in the very front, then the whole apron slides back (push the apron away from you) and it will unhook from the playfield.
Quoted from fschlau:The balls quite often gets stuck under the plastic ramp at the KISS-lane, does anyone else have the same problem and does anybody have a good solution?

loosen the lock nut and move the plastic over a smidge.
Quoted from crazypinballguy:I'm leaving the club due to new (to me) pins coming in and no place to put them.
Been struggling with the decision to sell it; listed it last week and pulled the ad within the same hour.
If anyone knows someone looking for a very nice CFTBL feel free to message me. Thanks!
PM sent.
Quoted from RussMyers:Amazingly, the rest of the playfield is actually quite good, not roached at all, just that blown out snack hole.
The above is a little too far for me to go.

Get in there with some quick wood epoxy. It should bond those loose layers together nicely. Then sand down to original shape and cliffy over. Done.
Quoted from drummermike:I have never had resets from the mod. My original power board would reset. I added a Kahr board to stop that. (Some do not like this solution).
I now have a Rottendog board that eliminated the need for the Kahr. I have not had any issues with the RD. Had it in for many years. Fingers crossed. Pin and mod run fine.
Kahr boards are great.
Quoted from robgo777:Anybody know anything about these universal creature grave monsters listed on ebay, looks like a scam??
ebay.com link: itm
They have been all over Facebook as adverts too. I'm betting it is a scam.
