Happy to be in the club. Picked up a really nice one a couple of weeks ago. Has Color dmd, powder coating, Back Alley speaker panel, led back box, new ramps, and more.

First thing I did was the dead mans chest parchment paper mod. Then my daughter and I painted and weathered the chest. I did the ship cannon led mod, too.
Just got Maffewell’s air ball mod and picked up some art blades at the Allentown show.
Having a blast with it so far.

Quoted from Stebel:

Before and after pics of the chest?

Here you go. The chest was the stock one that came with the game.

Thank you!

Quoted from gac:

How and where did you get the leds to do the ship mod? Thanks

I had a bunch of red 3mm leds, so I used them. I wired them up, installed, and tied them to the ship flasher. Similar to that kit that Weir Pinball offered a while back.

#2813 2 years ago

Not that I know of, sorry. Weir pinball's site has the kits as sold out. I guess you could try to contact him to see if he's doing another run?

Or message PinShakers

https://pinside.com/pinball/market/classifieds/archive/66339

If you're handy, you could get some pre-wired 3mm leds from eBay, wire, drill out the cannons and try it yourself.

Looks great! Love the different topper ideas.

Here's what I did for my custom topper. Large skull red eyes are tied into the center jolly roger insert.

Quoted from midcoastsurf:

Received my coins today. Awesome!! Included double sided tape already attached and an alcohol wipe. Took more time just to remove the plug cover.

Got mine too! Thanks Souldrider!

Quoted from Soulrider911:

mbott1701 really like that powdercoat you have there

Thanks, I like it too. I can't take credit; a previous owner had already done the powder coating when I bought the game.

I got mine from Doug when I got the speaker light kit.

Quoted from metalkatt:I have a question for all of you that installed LED bulbs in your inserts…I just put non-ghosting in all my playfield inserts and I’m getting some weird subtle flickering from some of them, especially on the compass area. Any of you experienced this?

Consider using an LED OCD board

Quoted from Nds777:

Does potc have dimming effects?
I bought mine with leds (that ghost really bad actually) so I don’t know if I’m missing out on something there.

Use the LED OCD for GIzmo for that (general illumination).

Did anyone order those new mods that Backalley announced before TPF this past March?

#3607 9 months ago

yes

Quoted from Soulrider911:

mbott1701 I ordered the left ramp signs about a week ago.

Thanks
