I'm in. Been restoring for awhile and learned so much. Rebuilt all the pop bumpers which was a total pain, replaced the sound board, upgraded speakers and put stock ones back in lol, replaced all lights with LEDs and reconfigured flashers and lighting in back box, installed colour dmd, installed pinbits new drop target ramp on Frankenstein, new auto eddy controllers, complete new plastics, polished metal ramps, removed Mylar from pop bumper area, rebuilt all coils, rebuilt flippers and changed had to then change blue coils to orange because way too powerful when rebuilt, replaced all targets and switches, replaced some transistors on main board, installed new pop scoop, rebuilt Dracula gearbox (he moves like the flash now) and still not finished - I'm almost ready my studliness.

I think I've enjoyed tinkering with it more than actually playing although I nearly lit all instruments other day to get to monsters of rock.

It's a great theme with some great humour. C is for coughin and I don't even have a cold.

Quoted from 2000_Alum:

I'm in the club! Love the machine but I find it tough to really keep the ball under control. I seem to have to play live a lot and the right ramp needs to be a great shot to compete it, or else it just comes back down. Seems like ball spin around the tight turn kills it. Flippers were re-built 2 weeks ago and I'm at 6.5 degrees, any input on a better set up or are all of you generally the same?

I would try stepping down to orange coils on the flippers. Especially if you have cleaned and polished the machine. After I had restored mine the blue coils were like cannons and I'd get crazy ball spin, air balls and ball launching off ramps. Orange coils cured most of this but still are plenty powerful enough. I also removed all the wire ramps and rolled the ball through and adjusted accordingly. Years of play had widened the wire so at some places. When first entering the left bride ramp the ball could fly out the sides or top if moving fast enough. I also lowered it 2mm by removing some spacers from a metal post and bride shots are actually a joy with a lot less draining backwards.
