Quoted from PAIDGE:

Like this?

I’d be interested in a couple sets too.

Well, my plan of building two fathoms from scratch just came to a screeching halt. I’ve got a ton of new fathom specific parts if anyone is interested.

Full harness set
Backglasses
Reese rails
Drop targets
Pop caps
Aprons
Probably more

Quoted from gliebig:

Any chance you have a spare backbox clasp?

Not sure which part you’re referring to?

#698 3 years ago

I have the 3 and 6 drop target banks modeled with drawings and dxf. I made protos that worked well. If anybody wants the files, let me know. I’m not going to make them now, good timing because I JUST sent the order to the fab shop. Maybe haggis will sell their mechs?

Quoted from gliebig:

The hasp that hooks/locks the head to the cab.

Isn’t it the same as other ballys of the era with two hinges on the front then two bolts that go through the bottom of the head and thread into the neck? In any case, I don’t have a clasp. Marco has the over-center style clasp used on Williams games, maybe that would work?

Quoted from Gotpins:

Are there any other pinsiders in here building a Fathom from scratch? I’m trying to come up with a solution to mounting the playfield into the cabinet since the original style playfield pivot brackets seem to be unobtanium. I was thinking a sliding mount like B/W wpc era might be cool. Has anyone else crossed this bridge yet? If so, I’d be interested in hearing from you.

I am, slowly….
PAIDGE was building some for sale but he seems to have gone dormant.

Quoted from Nihonmasa:

Yep exactly.
And from what I saw on the machine, the links are not within their guides when this happens, as guessed by the people above.
But the culprit they give me ain't there... ^^'

Is the reset bar coming back down so that it’s not pushing up on the target links? If so, did you put the same coil stop back in? Is the reset bar oriented correctly?
