Hi guys.

I just joined the club, picked up a fairly original looking JP yesterday. It is my first data east table so I'm trying to get my head around the adjustments and test functions. It is a bit different to Bally/William (which is what I am used to) took me an hour to find the volume control it has a few issues like the raptor kick back not working and some lights out etc. once I fix it all up it will be sweet. I'm looking forward to reading past posts in this club to find out what I need to know first impression is that it is a great game and my kids already love it.

Why the hell'd you print a photograph of a motorcycle into your cabinet artwork? That's ridiculous. There's only a motorcycle in Jurassic World, not Park.

So with a cabinet like that, do you have to wax it every time you wash and wax your cars too? Nice work!

No. I sprayed this out of my Iwata W-400 gun.

That’s the same clear I use.

Very nice work.

Do you find it to be a PITA to polish? Next time that I spray it, I'm going to try to polish at 24 hrs otherwise it seems far to hard.

Yeah. I’m not a professional and I don’t have anything to compare it too but it takes some work but have never really had a problem. I do my cabinets and playfields. I usually spray flat so I have a pretty good finish to start with.

I did this last coat flat. Just seems like the pigtails from sanding are hard to buff out. This last coat, I started hand sanding with 1500 then DA 2000, 2500 & 3000 grit before I switched to the buffer. I had to work to get the pigtails out which had to be no more coarse than 2000 grit. I'll probably try a different clear after I run thru this gallon that I have.

Old vs, brand new? Or newly re-shined? If those are brand new replacement guides, you may have some people wanting some of their own as those tabs are prone to breaking. I had to have mine re-welded.

I was rebuilding my flippers today and noticed that my upper flipper did not have a EOS switch. The two lower flippers both have EOS switches.
Is that the way it should be?
Bought a 2+1 flipper kit and it came with 3 EOS switches, so whats the correct setup?

Quoted from woody24:
Stock, there's nothing on them. But what I did was add two small rubbers on the ends of the two wiresforms that come down.
[quoted image]

Quoted from tjprice222:
Mine used to do that as well. Loosen up that nut holding the rail and move it slightly to the right. When you re-tighten the nut, hold the rail because it will want to pull to the left and that’s causing the ball to go over the sling shot. Mine did not have a bumper either. Should be an easy fix.

I moved the ramp all the way to the right, which made the ball fall out less frequently, but did not eliminate the problem entirely.
Adding two post rubbers to the end of the wire form seems to be the winning ticket.
Haven't had it happen since I put them on.
Much thanks, it seems like problem solved.

Playfield Service Rails:

Anyone have a part number used with sucess for playfield service rails? Williams type.

Even if we can only use one in the middle like a spooky pin, it would be an upgrade.
Thanks in advance!!
