Selling already? Didn't you just spend a lot of time on this machine putting it back together? Was it not to your liking? I kind of feel like that with mine. I waited so long to get one, loved playing it at shows, but when I got it home, I couldn't get into it. I find myself playing it the least unfortunately.

What! How can you speak such blasphemy?

Saw this STTNG in person, was pretty impressed with the clear job done by tat.
That powder coat is certainly different. I'm always cautious to do mods like that just in case I decide to move it later, I hate losing money on mods!
Awesome job on that playfield, for the price you're asking that's a great deal.
,,, Good Luck !~~!
Nice looking STTNG, personally not a fan of the blue legs, but the rest looks fantastic. Its hard to believe its not sold yet.
Quoted from davewtf:how did you clear that, Tat? Varathane in a can or did you use an automotive clear and a gun? How many coats?

Whew. If he said yes to this, the value would have dropped significantly!
A spray gun with auto clear sounds just a tad better.

Ummmm, huh? Value would have dropped if varathaned? I am guessing you are joking?
Bump for your sale Tatman...

Why would you think he was joking? Isn't a quality auto clear a lot better than Varathane?

A quality auto clear is more durable than varathane, but the "value dropping significantly" seems like a silly statement. You may see a difference of about $100-300 for a PF finished in auto clear as opposed to varathane, but I am not sure I would qualify that as significant.
That is one beautiful STTNG Tat!!! It's great to see someone put in the effort to pimp out such a classic pin. Hope it finds a good new home.

I'd say up to $500 difference, and yes, I would call that significant. I'm not just talking about auto clear vs varathane either, but being sprayed with a gun vs can. I'd be much more willing to pay more for a nice pf with an auto clear properly applied than one that had varathane applied by can. There really isn't much comparison between the two in my opinion.
