Quoted from SKILL_SHOT:

how about adhering different color transluscent PVC film instead of blasting designs on the PF then clear over it?

Yeah I am wondering what the final plan is for the artwork. I have to say that while everything about this project has blown my socks off, I was a little disappointed in seeing the white scoring cutouts stuck around the inserts. I mean, I get that without the white backing they are hard to read, but it seems like some creative use of some sort of the color artwork would look nicer, like maybe using the translucent films described above. Seems like a lot of the simple shapes of the original playfield could be created using these.

Unless I am just a dumb-dumb who didn't catch your plan for playfield artwork stated elsewhere in the thread, which is not only very possible, but also likely. Everything else about this project has been incredible, and I've loved the attention to detail in every update. Keep it Coming.

Quoted from PinballManiac40:

I vote for bringing it. If you have the schematics, bring them too. There are a couple of expert EM guys that should be able to help give you an idea to help get it repaired.

Did the game work before you disassembled it? Or this is the problem that it originally had?

Yes! Bring it and maybe it will leave the show fully working! If not, I can't imagine any one in houston who wouldn't want to see it, playing or not.
