Beautiful. I just completed mine a few months back.

I did not bother to wax (mine will just not get THAT much play) but I was pretty liberal with the low-tac mylar in the pops, outside the scoop and the drop under the steps ramp.

The tricky parts for me:

The routed rectangle where the steps ramp starts, I had to route it down more for my repro ramp to sit flush.

The holes for the wire guides in the lanes, I had to open them up which scared the crap out of me, haha (but ultimately went fine)

There were a few missing holes (or ones I had to open up) but overall those were minor for me.

In the end, its just jaw dropping. It's like playing a brand new game (and I guess it really is at this point)

Quoted from The_Director:

I’m actually just getting to this and, likewise, a little nervous. Remember what bit you used and any pointers for a clean opening up?

You def need a dremel and this kit: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001BK0TRM

I don't recall which bit (and even if I did, I wouldnt go off that) just size a bit that is just a little bit smaller than the gauge of the wire (since it is a press fit)

I used a thin cone shaped bit on my dremel to clear off the "clear" I was about to drill through (to minimize the chances of cracking/separation). Just be careful to not clear away too much. I would do a little at a time, and then hold the wire up to it to see how much more I needed to do. Then I drilled the hole wider (vacuumed out any debris) and carefully pressed them in.
