Pretty amazing that the printed area between your "timer" insert and the VUK saucer is still intact on a routed game, it's usually worn to death.

Quoted from eyeamred2u:Have you read the HEP thread? Good reading about chemicals to clean dirty playfields.
Got a link to the particular post concerning which chemicals to use?
Quoted from Langless28:Finishing up GI sockets. All new and used color correct wire. Mcmaster did not have color-striped white. So I used the string color and just white 18ga. Tried to be neat about it.

Maybe too late for this, but Planetary carries color-striped wires, I just redid a number of them in my own T2. Turned out I needed a couple of colors I didn't order, I just stripped the stripes off what wire I did have with lacquer thinner and painted on the correct stripe color with Createx acrylics. Can't tell the difference once it's in the machine.
Quoted from Langless28:Made a new ramp flap for the left metal ramp. Came out pretty good.

You've inspired me, I think I'm going to redo this flap for mine too. Wasn't going to even though it's got a rusty spot underneath (which doesn't bother me), but it's get a worn area of blue dye on top (which does).
Quoted from Peruman:Slight off topic question, what is the name of this bracket? Trying to get some new ones but without the correct name, finding them is proving difficult.[quoted image]
Arch retainer, part #01-5575. Looks like they're out of stock everywhere though.

Quoted from eyeamred2u:Nice work. I did the same thing. I wish we had a group on here for templates for all games so owners had a resource to download templates to make their own.
Best template is the original flap. Just gotta bite the bullet and grind it off.
