Quoted from PinDeLaPin:RonSS Why did I let you talk me into picking up this new project ?
Funny I just picked up a shuffle bowler on RonSS suggestion as well.

Quoted from PinDeLaPin:Ordered bulbs for the machine this morning and it's hard to believe but there are 162 bulbs in it plus 2 long fluorescent bulbs. Couldn't believe there was that many and had to count again to double check myself.
Funny was just telling my kid that the pitch and bat needed 114 bulbs Crazy
You are doing a great job and I am having a good time watching the progress. I picked up the shuffle bowl that needs a going through which I am in the process to start. I’ve cleaned and dry lubed with Teflon all the mechanical switches on the alley which were rusty, so they took a bath in evaporust. Also the coin door and all hardware cleaned and dry lubed. So now just got my grease with Teflon from amazon to start cleaning s.u. And such.
Quoted from PinDeLaPin:Do yourself a favor and go through it and clean everything and get it all done at one time so you don't have to come back later and mess with something that you didn't clean the first time
That’s what I’m planning on doing after following you. Like you already know there is a lot to go through but I have time. I also got a pitch and bat game a week later from the same guy as a gift so that was cool but it also is apart and getting cleaned up. So both are in the living room and dining room. Haha to the wife but she’s been good so far. With those two and a DH pinball I have a great place to put the three but like you said want them to be working good because it would be a pain to pull them out later and to keep messing with them.

Quoted from PinDeLaPin:Okay A little update I went in to the bank switches and the pin switch Bank and really filed and fine-tuned those switches. I now have the 6 pin working properly. I now have to figure out this pin reset error I got it three times during the course of one game. I'm not sure if it is that pin reset motor switch that is broken it seems like theres something else causing that.
Good job keep it up.

Quoted from PinDeLaPin:The old setup was seriously nasty looking but now the new card and plexi have been installed and looking great.
Just curious was the plexi a piece you bought, cut and drilled or was it purchased that way. If you did the work what process did you use. Thanks.
