Thanks so much for letting us look behind the curtain on your process. You are truly a wizard!

I have a quick question. Referring to the photo you posted (quoted) after re-drilling the ball guide through hole... Do you attempt to fill the old hole in the replacement playfield field?

Thanks and please keep up the amazing work!

Catching up some of what did not get documented yesterday on the TAF project.

Transformer was reworked.

Chris,

I know I'm referring to a very old post here but I hope you might share a bit of your magic. What do you use to (I assume) paint transformer cores? Do you treat for rust (hopefully) before refinishing? Mask the windings and wiring?

Any push in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for all of your fantastic work!

Now for the TOTAN transformer.
This one is pretty ugly.

This always happens to me. I ask for help then I read more in your thread and find the answer.

Thanks for the great information in this thread!

Hi Chris, I'm working on another scratch build. This time it is The Getaway.

Do you happen to have (and be willing to share) the pivot nut locations for the version that uses slides? Preferably referenced from the outside rear and bottom of the cabinet.

Thanks for documenting your work so well. It is truly inspiring!
