    In my BoP teardown I'm learning a lot...
    Including why the slingshot by the pops wasn't working quite right. Take a look at the attached. One leaf was pretty well bent to continuous contact, the other was bent so far apart that I don't think it ever connected...

    What mangled or bent or weird things have you found?

    Old melted pop bumper caps on a Bally Lost World early ss pin that I bought last year as a project.
    Easy way to help make an old project pin look a bit better: install new pop bumper caps.

    Here is the latest one a TZ gumball VUK, ops used what they had on hand to keep the games up and taking coins.

    I pulled this assembly, straightened it and replaced with the correct armature and stopper.

    Here's a playfield slide from a project game I restored
    The playfield did straighten back out, but it was 'warped' or 'bent' around it.

    I like the name of this picture. I can hear him actually saying that as he's going down!

    B_R's Pin.bot/trailer pic is the first thing I thought of for this thread.
    B_R's Pin.bot FTW!

    Man, that Pinbot has seen better days! Knock another one off the 'available' list.
