'also available in black and teal not shown'
i ordered like 30 of them a month ago.
i believe they are more of a green like JM . fathom are more of a blue.
Quoted from freddy:Still looking for cave plastic thanks freddy
also still looking for the lane guides

Thanks freddy

Quoted from cooked71:My Fathom has a mostly rubber grommets holding down the plastics. Is this stock and where do you get them?

Quoted from gliebig:Anyone know Fathom flipper rubber size?
Also, I am missing the one-way gate at the top of the shooter lane. Anyone know a part number for that or where I can get one? Marco doesn't have them.
Thanks,
G
If it’s the long gate at the top above the ABC lanes that’s the same gate on scared stiff and Dr Dude you can order that from Marco.
If it’s the small one exiting the shooter lane you could probably bend one yourself.
If you have the original Bally flippers just order them Unless someone changed your flippers out.
Quoted from Mudflaps:Where is the best place to buy #44 lamp sockets to replace the #555 sockets? Looking for a single bayonet with the other side mounted to the ground wire. [quoted image]

Quoted from zahner:I know there is a very nice original for sale that’s at the same price as Shay sells his awesome reproduction BGs.
Look here:

So do I lol
The original silk screened back glass has no saturation of color!
The reproductions are saturated Which makes For slightly burry detail on the repro. The originals are crisp and the mirroring is better!
Quoted from Mudflaps:My upper right flipper was intermittent, now won’t engage at all. When I press the right flipper button, the upper right flipper vibrates just enough (and hums) where I can tell it’s getting power.
Voltage at the coil is 44V. Switch contacts seem good.
Any ideas? Could this be a board issue? I have an Alltek Solenoid Driver Board with an original MPU.
Lower right flipper (works fine):

Upper right flipper (not working with good voltage):

Try adjusting contacts on leaf switch
Quoted from Mudflaps:Green goes first with the cabinet and last with the head. As far as color, I’m not a purist at all. I just picked the ‘close enough’ colors at Home Depot.

It looks great!!
Quoted from ABE_FLIPS:Thanks, it's a great game. I love how well you can work on your nudging.

Try Vector if you want to practice nudging !
Quoted from pinballlarry1:Greetings Fathomites. I am working on game #EFA3851 for a friend, bringing it back from years (decade?) of negelect. Typical broken rubbers, 90% burned out lamps, MPU battery damage, horribly dirty playfield, etc. So far, I have installed a new Alltek MPU board, relamped with led's, new rubbers, replaced incorrect parts as found etc. It boots fine, plays well, and even the sound and speech are working. Owner inherited this game from his father-in-law and has let it languish in a game room along with slots and jukes. My question, I am trying to replace the mangled one-way wire gate assembly from the shooter lane into the A B C rollover area. The existing gate was installed backwards, allowing the ball to reenter the shooter lane, and has been twisted, bent and scratched very badly. I reinstalled it correctly and have it barely functional right now but am leery of further twisting the wire form. Bally part #ASE-2250-93, no luck searching on the usual vendor websites. Hoping someone has one or knows of a suitable replacement. Dimension between mounting post studs is 2 3/8". Thanks for any help! pinballlarry in Montana

Same gate as Dr. Dude and scared stiff possibly others.

Oh just realized you circled the small gate thought you meant the long one.♂️
Quoted from mjmpin:Thanks, yeah, I read at TP3 and on mine its reading 15V. Im good with adding a small PS - that way (however trivial) I am not adding any load t the vintage electronics & I have the same LEDSsame color on 4 machines lined up, so prefer them all to be the same intensity. Yes they are 12V strips
I just have to move the 110v AC plug jack from up stream to downstream of the power switch. Odd that by design it is up stream, why would you want additional power source not switched?
appreciated!
For soldering
