I'm really thinking about joining the club

#1439 6 years ago
Quoted from MustangPaul:

Hope ya got a line on a nice one.

I do.there's one that the asking was 2500 and lowered to 2000 firm.it's a 9 out of 10 supposedly with led and some other work done.seems right at the top of the price chart but if it's as clean as described and in the pics then it might be worth a little extra for piece of mind....

Quoted from MustangPaul:

I hope you can see it in person before you buy.

It's close enough to go look at it and not waste the whole day if I don't buy it

#1446 6 years ago

I ended up joining the F14 club instead

It's not that they believe the earth is flat it's that it consumes their being.they must constantly remind you of all the lies you're being told as they angrily spout off some YouTube facts and seem to not be able to go a day without discussing it.

Been wanting to join the club for years and finally found a very fair deal local and jumped on it. I added led's,took off all the plastics and ramps to clean,polish,adjust and rerubber. Cabinet is pretty nice as well as the backglass the playfield is meh but for a SS it's not that bad and the inserts are all pretty much level.The sound wasnt working and my tech found one of the sockets had a broken leg not connecting with one of the pins of the chip and swapped in a new one and now we have liftoff. I noticed I have 3 insert and not the hotdog insert does that just mean ones an early production machine?

Quoted from misterhare:

So glad to have more in the club saving the machine that saved pinball!

I forget who said it to me but they said "my goal is to make every machine a little nicer than when I got it" and it stuck with me and that is my goal. If everyone did this these machines can outlive all of us.

I'm having a small display issue. All segments and displays are working but they are constantly flashing like a strobe. I reseated all connectors and then it worked fine for a little while so I'm assuming it's a connector issue but I've tried reseating them again and no luck this time.Does anyone know which connector I should focus on or any other insight?
Edit: I've read it may be caps on the power supply.

Its pretty tough to get to the stock high scores on 3 ball.i hit 2,900,000 and change the other night just missing the lowest preset.

#3150 3 years ago

I went down to play and I wasn't coming up without a high score 3,671,400 3 balls no extra balls.

Quoted from wildwillys:

I played a quick game and the row of all of the X lights are out 2x, 3x, 4x Etc. They are not on in the game or attract mode. Yes I checked the bulbs. I have not dug out the manual yet to try and track down the problem. Hopefully someone can help.
Thanks, Jeff

Mine just did the same thing

#3192 3 years ago
Quoted from misterhare:

Okay. There is way too much coincidence going on with this forum.

Its like the market place you won't see a title for sale for a year then 3 pop up the same day. My displays started acting funny first which consensus says I need to rebuild the PS so I wonder if that ties into other things starting to go bad or just the fact it went from one basement rarely played to another basement and getting hours of play most days.

Quoted from Bax1:

so played a crazy good game last night. best score yet since having this two weeks. 3,613,240. had a super long multi ball that helped get me there. I did the flipper upgrade last weekend and man they are super strong now. When I hit the T drop down target, sometimes it hits so hard it will fly into the trough over the flippers. crazy strong. I might need to raise the game up a bit?

mines raised and does the same thing the trick to this game is never directly hit the T drop

Quoted from oliviarium:

Due to the current condition of the machine, all testing is limited to female techs at this time.

I see some ball drains in the near future

Quoted from Apinjunkie:

So my shuttle machine is down and will be for a little while now, that doesn't mean I'm not always obsessing about it though. I'm a glass blower and just set up my holiday location at our local mall and had some time the other day to knock out this piece while I was here.
