How did you create your own new chocks? Just cutting wood to size and nailing on? You're already a pro.

What is the difference in "automotive" primer versus just your average wood primer? And what about rattle can primer? One day i will do my cabinet, but want to make sure i know exactly what i am getting in to.

Quoted from beelzeboob:

Because the pops are rebuilt THROUGH the playfield (rather than being isolated on one side), I always like to start with that. So I nearly completed the pop rebuild, but after doing some ultrasonic cleaning, I still have to run the metal parts in the tumbler so I can reassemble and mount the coils on the playfield. No pictures of that because it's far too boring.

I would actually love to see this step - as I am intimidated by the fin shank screws being hammered through playfield. How did you do this step? I have heard you need to drill out a portion of the hole so the screw sits flush? This step scares me.
