    So, I have been working in my T2 project for a while. Having a kid, buying a house and work have really slowed the process down. Anyway my playfield was on the basement floor and I got 8 inches of water overnight due to a sump pump failure. It wasn’t in water long but I have a feeling there is no coming back, trying to figure if I should just take the loss and claim on the insurance if I can. Pics included

    It will probably be OK, but if you can get insurance to cover it then do it.

    Stand that baby up next to a dehumidifier for a day or 2

    Your fine, just let it dry for a week or 2.

    Should air out fine, dehumidifier or just a fan blowing on it for a couple days.

    The risks would seem to be delamination between layers of the plywood and selling of 5e wood causing paint to lift. I’d put a fan on it to help speed drying. Once dry assess the damage.
