What's with the space between the sentences/paragraphs? Do you speak like that, with an emphatic pause?
I mean, it is Sinbad...

so I believe it.

No PacMan, I did not mean you.

Looks like they'll be about 4 Sinbah restos starting simultaneously. Guess that's a great thing for planet Earth! Will be following

closely.

OP...please retitle yer thread to "Sinbad. Restore. By. Bill. Shatner."

We're just joshin ya man! Good start. Was seriously waiting for TXJay to start his. It will definitely be worth watching...his work is spot on. Nice to see some love for this great title!

Lunch break​'s over. How'd the orange go?

Color me silly but you sure seem to know all the right steps for a "dumb newbie."
Dumb luck or Decapitated?
With that big sword, I'm going for Decapitated.

Quoted from quinntopia:

I've actually considered creating a "process diagram" or flow chart of all the steps, preparation, supplies and parts that are needed!

Would be super awesome of ya if ya did. Not many restores on this title. Super stoked to get my (non working) machine next week. Guess I should've already ordered the Pascal board. Not in a hurry though, still bleeding from the ACDC purchase.

Quoted from quinntopia:

Question for you...you've got some cool pins, what is it about Sinbad? I haven't been doing this long but seems like most people who have modern games don't care too much for older pins?

What's NOT to love about Sinbah?
4 linear flippers that present all kinds of crazy ball movement. Almost a whole different skill set playin with 4. The rules are somewhat easy (always a huge plus for me!). The spinner is right in the middle to rip on, and it's kinda the best of both worlds being a SS yet retaining the wonderful EM bells and chimes (ok so they're not authentic, but real enough for me.) Plus it was a pretty awesome movie; I remember watching it with my Dad. People can say whatever they want, but I believe most all of us are suckers for nostalgia. I am.
Keep up the great work Q! Can't wait to finally get my machine on Fri!

Oh and thanks for posting that flowchart! That info will come in handy for a quick reference. Sinbad restorers unite!
