so as to see your work firsthand.
Not that this guy don't have skills , but as far as I can tell .. Most of this is not his work , besides the puzzle of removing ,cleaning , and re- assembling ...... I'm not trying to be a dick-head here , I just listened to a guy tell me how he built his custom house on the coast , when really he had paid to have it build, he did sod the yard , but continues to puff up and tell people he built his own home ...
I think the project is awesome ,and look forward to new post on this thread
the money you can put into a restoration is mind blowing ...and. Here I am cutting open a tube of polish to get the last expensive drop out.. Ahh the pity of a first world country
Look forward to seeing more post on the restore ..
Not trying to knock anyone's work here
Just saying
Quoted from mof:Incorrect. When he racks up his 100... 150... 200... hours or whatever on this project, compared to the hours he outsources, it will be "mostly his work."
It just seems to me all the knarly repair gets, "if you want it perfect" done by someone else . Or in most cases replaced ... Cabs, playfields , plastics.. Coin doors, legs,backglasses, plating , rails, , you can practically build one to be brand new ... (Just a lot of parts to put back). Which is cool, but I don't see the "his work" meaning craftsmanship in it..
This statement is in general speaking ... In no way aimed at PinballMikeD's work and his skills or anyone else's..this is just how I see high end pins
I was thinking PMD was ..pale morning dun.. Always have (fly fishing jargon)
Thanks for your In-site I understand if you can get it new and "time is money" then why not get it new?
Can't wait to see the under field on this thing
