I need to finish a few final touches on a KISS Premium, but I wanted to post a few pictures of this machine. The axe guitar side rails are sweet, but these were my last ones.

I'll post a few more once it's finished.

Are those exterior LED strips along the top of the Refinery GB's cabinet sides? If so, do they interact with gameplay like undercab lights or are they constantly lit once the game is turned on?

I am still working on getting some Metallica Premiums in stock so I can make Refinery Editions as well.

Yes, these UV LED exterior side rails are powder coated to match the machine and they are game interactive as well. It's awesome on GB....

I have been busy working on several titles of machines including the last run of Metallica.

Here is a Iron Maiden Premium that I finished for my customer. He picked out the powder coating colors and I have to admit they look perfect for this machine.

I finally joined club MET with a fantastic Refinery Edition from Steve. My non-pinball friends are blown away, and they don't have a stock machine to compare it with. I picked MET as my favorite music pin and am very happy I with a NIB Refinery Edition. Very special one in my collection now. It has been worth the wait. I am dreaming pinball again.

I've heard about this machine... The original owner was in California and sold it. Somehow it made it's way to New York, New York hotel arcade in Las Vegas... Someday I'll have to stop out there and see it.

That TWD made me decide to buy my own a couple years back.

Very nice! You should check out the burning barn mods available for TWD. It would put the finishing touch on this. Below is a pic of my setup.

Also I found your TWD at NYNY in another pinsiders post. Love the glossy black with blood splatter.

#93 5 years ago

My customer and I talked about the burning barn but he decided that it might be a little bit too much for the look he wanted. So for now he is keeping it out. He wanted to just have a sign in that area.

Thanks for posting a picture of the machines at NY NY arcade... The PR TWD Pro looks great in the line up....

I just received my Metallica Pro Pinball Refinery Edition and I have to say that this machine is awesome! I started looking for a standard Pro and then got connected to Steve at MI Pinball Refinery and decided to splurge and get this beauty. I have to say that the whole experience was outstanding. I am new to the pinball scene only recently acquiring a beautiful Stargate so I had plenty of questions for Steve. He was more than happy to talk to me multiple times before making a decision. After I did, he kept me informed along the way and gave me some other tips for when the machine arrived. The machine arrived in perfect condition and right on time. I was super impressed! If you are on the fence about getting one of these or any PB Refinery machine, just do it. Top notch quality and craftsmanship for a one of a kind pinball. Here are a few pics but they don't do it justice...

Do you have any pics of an Aero Pro?

Quoted from FalconDriver:

Check out Steve's website http://www.MIPinballRefinery.com
I've seen pics of Aerosmith Pro's on there.

Further up this thread is the Star Trek Premium he did for me, I also have a MET from Steve also and can attest to the earlier posting that his work is second to none, he's a real asset to the community, always going out of his way to make the customer happy!
If you go with him you won't regret it.
