Great project! Will you consider selling any of the old parts (plastics) at some point?

Quoted from mmuglia:

Are the ramps cracked or damaged? if not, the ramps on this game can easily be flame polished to look like new. I did mine and everybody thought I bought new ramps. Just be careful with the whirlpool ramp, that's a tricky one to flame polish.
I wrote a procedure for doing this that was later published.

Yeah I found that out the hard way when I slightly melted the end of the funnel. Fortunately this doesn't affect the ball travel at all and didn't cause any actual damage to the plastic. Only a small price to pay for all the other ramps turning out FREAKING GORGEOUS though!!

How would you suggest cleaning Bigfoot's rubbery plastic?

#70 5 years ago

It fascinates me just how crazy dirty this game can get in the back. Here are a couple of photos from my teardown:

But Davi's illustration is not where the ball lands, am I missing something?

#116 5 years ago

Are you planning on using the fluted dome LEDs in the GI? I love those, and original bulbs look great on this game because of the warm color and amount of horizontal light spread which these LEDs simulate quite well.

#118 5 years ago

You have some in your box in the lower right in that first photo. I've seen them on MMR and AFMR and to me glare isn't an issue.

#122 5 years ago

Ah I see. There’s clearly some naming confusion amount resellers. Yeah I prefer the appearance of the faceted LEDs in your picture.

I bought some reproduction boulders a few years ago. I don’t know who made them but I think I got them from Marco. They are thick, solid, came with decals and sign applied, and did not give me any clearance issues. Although they are missing some of the factory original painted details, the ball still hits the glass as designed.

Are the "watch for drop" plastic on the instantly falls ramp and skull plastic original? I've never seen them before.

#174 5 years ago

That's what I thought. Looks good! What about the skull plastic?
