Maybe I'm out of order for asking this but I'm in the market for a new (or HUO/Mint) MBR and was curious...
Are people having problems with theirs (dimples and communication with distributor??)...Scanned through the pages and seems maybe there are some issues?
Any recommendations for best place to purchase these days? Haven't bought NIB for a while
Thanks
Quoted from Jarson:All my dimples seem to radiate from Franks feet. I just got a HUO RBION and it also has dimples, they have been around for quite a while (dimpling on playfield).
Interesting. Wonder if putting some mylar there would help...
Quoted from Lounge:I just did this as I have some dimpling from franks feet, scoop eject, and drac feet. Lots of air balls in this game.. I used mylar from the arc in drac’s travel to a few inches from the top of the slings. Feel pretty good about it - time will tell.
Any chance you could post a pic of where you placed the mylar? I'm picking up a MB shortly and want to protect it before I play my first game on it. Thanks!!!
Quoted from Lounge:I cut a template out of some flimsy cardboard (think back of a notepad) and laid it over the mylar, traced it, and cut it out, and placed it on the playfield.
For the whole area you outlined in yellow?
Ok cool. So, I'm nervous to lay a big old sheet of mylar on there but its probably the right thing to do. Have you found its helped with dimpling?
Did you do anything to prep surface so that in the future if you want to remove it wont destroy the PF? Thanks again
Quoted from Blakester:My NIB LE is arriving Tuesday—would appreciate the Cliffs notes version of any adjustments too
I got mine today! Not sure why someone downvoted your post lol. I’d love to see a
Cliff notes version. I noticed a couple of SDTM from the scoop which can probably be adjusted.
Curious. I got my LE today and getting things dialed in. Weird thing though. Game plays but the ‘coin door open’ screen keeps coming up. Wires are connected and the bottom switch works (turns green lights on backbox PCB when pressed) but neither register on the switch test.
Quoted from LTG:Switches wired right ? Flap on door keeping them closed or need adjusting ?.
LTG : )
Not sure how they should be wired? Thanks
Quoted from LTG:Different game, but similar in this picture.
Though I'd concentrate on the flap on the coin door holding the bottom switch in enough. It may need to be bent in a little. If you push the bottom one in and message goes away until you release it. Then the switch works and is wired right, then bend the flap.
LTG : )[quoted image]
Thanks. I’ll check today but I don’t think it’s a wiring issue.
It’s really weird. I can start and play a game even with the ‘coin door open’ Screen flashing. Once I hit start a game begins and it’s fine. Everything is normal after the game is over too.
Really really weird. Any ideas?

Looks wired up correctly...

Memory protect is wired right.
I still suspect the metal flap on the door isn't pushing it in far enough to close it and erase the coin door open error. It is the lower of the two switches.
In your picture, the memory potect switch doesn't stick out as far as the high power interlock switch above it. See the red line I made.
LTG : )[quoted image]
If I manually push both of those in at the same time with my had the ‘coin door open’ screen should go away right?
Quoted from LTG:You only need to push in the lower one to make it go away.
LTG : )
Doesn’t do anything when I push that in
Quoted from LTG:In case the picture isn't clear enough. Single black wire and purple wire go to top switch, high power interlock switch. Double black wires and white wire with the brown stripe go to the lower switch, memory protect switch.
LTG : )
That was it! Thanks man!!!
Quoted from LTG:That's the wood grain. Planking is the layers of plywood coming apart.
LTG : )
How would you see that? Isn’t plywood layered on top of each other? How would two of those layers coming apart manifest itself into perfections on the top layer? Not doubting you just curious.
Quoted from LTG:If you had layers of plywood coming apart, you'd have all kinds of swelling, cracking, breaking, no longer flat, etc. etc.
LTG : )
Yeah but wouldn’t that look like bumps and not vertical lines running up and down the playfield?
Quoted from LTG:Maybe we are missing something here.
In the picture I responded to, I pointed out that what is in the picture is the grain of the wood. Not planking.
LTG : )
What I’m seeing (circled in pic below) sure looks like what I’ve always (perhaps erroneously) referred to as planking. Vertical grooves and unevenness running up and down the PF.

LTG : )
Lol. Well, I’m an idiot. I thought these were magnets. Seemed small for magnets.

What I asked is whether MB had magnets.
It doesn’t. I was wrong.
PM me with further confusion.
Hey guys, I came across this site but am not sure...do they actually sell stuff or just list good ideas or what?
