Quoted from cosmokramer:

Thought I would ask for a few opinions here regarding the cab bottom. On the last few restorations I have done I decided to paint the bottom. On this one I am considering leaving it raw, more like the original.
Thoughts?

How's about leaving it bare, but cover it with frisket to keep it protected. Kind of like leaving the thin protective plastic on a new appliance. It'll keep it clean, and minty fresh. You could always peel it off later.

(following this thread closely for when we restore ours)

Quoted from pinballinreno:

Are you going to do the 2.0 version?

I was wondering this too. Being that this is a very detailed restoration considerations have to be made to accommodate the 2.0 upgrade.

BTW I can't wait to upgrade our Funhouse to 2.0 because it looks awesome!

Quoted from pinballinreno:

I molex everything in the game while its on the rotisserie.

I wondered why it'd be necessary to do this because most of these old games in private collections won't get played nearly as much as they did on route back in the day and just won't wear out like before. Chris (HEP) said something that made complete and total sense as to why he did this (among other reasons) and that was to prevent anyone from soldering inside the cabinet. With all the work put into making the cabinet perfect it'd be a shame to have a few drops of solder ruin all that work. For that reason alone I'm going to do the same on my next pin.

Perfect job on the screening. Love seeing this progress!
