Hi, I just started my JP restoration today. Only doing the board right now, got it all taken apart today. Like most Jurassic parks the C and A out holes are tore up. What are you going to use to build the damaged areas back up? I'm going to add the stainless steel protectors but still want to build it back up.

I have a new set of plastics I bought years ago when I got the machine, and most of the ones on the machine are still in good shape. Let me know if they send you two you are missing. if you don't get them I can send you my old ones

To repair my damaged board i used Gorilla 2 part epoxy. I cut little plastic forms and used some foam to hold them tight against the hole edges. With a small syringe i was able to put just enough in each area. Then shaped and sanded the hardened epoxy.

I did the touch up painting and then rushed out to the garage to clear it. We had a warm Saturday so I didnt take any pictures of the touch up painting. I also got a little carried away and made all new oak side frames. I picked up a radial arm saw and was itching to use it. Instead of the vinyl wrapped pine I painted these black and cleared them with the play field. The pictures dont do the play field justice. 6 coats of clear, wet sand with #1000 paper and buffed with fine cut cleaner. It looks like a sheet of glass.
