Also seeing my home run optos are out. I found the manual PDF online, and see the home run optos on the switch matrix, but I’m not seeing on the lamp matrix where the 3 bulbs behind the home run fence run to?

The 3 bulbs behind the mesh fence are GI Illumination Outfield. Test 6 General Illumination and cycle through until you get to the outfield.

Just came across some NOS plastics from when I was in the club so if anyone needs a NOS plastics set(original WMS sealed bag) and a NOS fence plastic, PM me.

Awesome, thanks! Confirmed in the test cycle it’s out, so I need to trace that back and figure out why those bulbs aren’t lighting up.

Positive note, I figured out why the center home run wasn’t registering ... there was a piece from the lock I drilled out blocking the balls from going down. It took until they stacked up in there and the pitches weren’t throwing anymore to figure it out!

Hi Guys,
Just a quick note to say I am leaving the club as I have sold my Slugfest to make room for some other projects.

Thanks for all the help along the way from all as this has been a good club to belong in.

I do still have a few card catchers, so if any interest let me know. Once they are gone I probably won't make any more.

D.

Alas my Slugfest has been sold as well. Fun being in the club while it lasted. Maybe I will rejoin someday.

The bulbs 17,18,19 on this bulb list are missing from my slugfest. Anyone know about an 806 bulb. Is this a typo and they are 906?

Mine has 906s in that spot. Seems to work.

VERY excited to be joining the club tonight (assuming all looks good)! Is there anything I should know about moving one of these? Anything to remove besides the cards from the dispenser (or do you need to?) and the balls (how do you actually get the balls out of this thing)? Can't wait to get this game home and set-up.

I'm interested in the back fence plastic. How much for the set shipped?

Nice work....I went through all this when I got my Slug Fest....the part I really didn't enjoy was the control panel....is yours in good shape?

That was my least favorite part. The overlay is a PIA, and the buttons are really tight. Make sure the button orientation is correct otherwise they won't fit right. Theres an image on this forum that shows the orientation.

Did you find an overlay? Their not easy to come by....in my opinion the control panel has a bad design flaw. The top of overlay has an aluminum surface, but it doesn't extend over the bullnose, which why u always see it fail in that location. On mine there was a 1/8" lip between the aluminum and the bullnose.

Hi!
Is somebody know where I can buy a control overlay? It seems that every place is BO. Nothing on Ebay. Maybe someone of you have a spare?
Thsnks!
Lou

I recently got one from user: MRSANRAMON
https://pinside.com/pinball/community/pinsiders/mrsanramon

Not sure anyone sells them anymore....I would make the request through planetary pinball.....they have the rights to make the overlay, but currently don't have any stock

Still have these left, they are NOS Williams, not repro’s! $65 shipping included in the US!

My slugfest doesn't even have that decal.

Maybe this one?
Looks odd

Me again....
I just found out that both holes under the cab at the back of the game have been blocked with a Wood shield. The grill was still on inside the game. The guy inserted brown napkin towels in the holes between the grill and wood shield. Why?

Holy shit thats bad...I'm wondering if its that bad all over the place? can u even salvage that side of the cabinet?

Yes. Everything is fine outside of this spot. It looks like a leak/dripping on this spot for a loooooog time. I’ll try to salvage It Before the whole Panel. Never a dull moment in this hobby!

For those who would like a new sticker for their card dispenser, fellow pinsider flashinstinct did the artwork for me. All you have to do is click on the link below and download the EPS file. Lots of company will be able to print it on vinyl

Go see its page to look at his stuff!

The patient wasn’t ready to die. Lots of micro/macro bondo cares. it’s now soft and Tough.

I also took some times to get rid of the atrocious original « bat ». It’s still proto but it’s much better. Same lenght and Specs. Same bounce and feel.
I Made 2 new « stadium lights » to put on each sides. Im Not done. But I know it will put pinstadium to shame

Awesome ! love the bat

Well I consulted the google ... where do you get a bat like that?

I bought these.

https://www.partycity.com/ca/mlb-baseball-bat-keychains-6ct-679519.html

Ah, got it. I wonder what it would look like if it were modified, maybe print the top half and put it on top of the bat? Or a way to hollow it and for it around the bat but leave the actual rubber surface exposed to hit the ball?

Go big or Go home. By just sticking half a bat on top of the original it might look soso

Just got my game and joined the club. Was playing fine for the first few days, went to play a game today and it keeps throwing 2-3 balls every time a pitch is thrown. Has anyone experienced the pitching arm going around too many times? What is the fix?

Hello again! I finally was able to get my hands on a dispenser but now I'm facing another issue, It won't plug into the machine! I opened up my cabinet and saw what I assumed to be the line plgu that was just sitting there not attached to anything near where the card dispenser would be. So when I bought the dispenser and saw that it's about 3 feet too short from getting to the motherboard. I was pretty discouraged. Can anyone help me in my construction or offer any tips about what I need to do or what I might be missing?

Thanks!

Thinking of picking one up. I've heard transport is hard(er than a standard pin) because the head doesn't fold out. But I see many happily riding around in SUVs in this thread. So is the solution just to take the top cowl with the speakers off? Is this attached by bolts?

thanks.
