Quoted from Billmelater:The best mod for FT is the one that allows you to turn off the flopping fish topper! I have a few in stock but will be making another batch due to high demand. PM me for a special Pinside member discount if interested.
When I bought my FT, I notice somebody had cut the wires going to the fish, so I repaired them.
It didnt take me long to figure out why the wires were cut. The flopping fish got old real fast!
Quoted from spanks_4:I don't understand cutting the wires when the coil has a quick disconnect in the head???
I dont understand why a person would do that too. They were cut off at the coil behind the fish.
I guess they went the fastest and easyest way and just didnt care.
Quoted from decktard:I put a bunch of vibration dampening tape on the different parts of the solenoid assembly and fish to dampen the sound. Best mod so far... I get most of the machine shaking effects with 1/3 the noise.
I'd guess you could substitute weatherstripping from the hardware store.
Thats a great idea that I will have to try.
At first, the fish didnt have the plastic cover over it, so I bought a new one hoping it would dampen the sound . It helped, but not as much as I was hoping.
