Finally an update! Are you sourcing your own stainless or do you have a shop producing them for you? I have been side tracked on getting started on my f-14, Thanks to the electric problems with the new strike and spares I brought home. Keep up the "Polished" work.

Quoted from cletus:

I couldn’t find anything else to fix so I removed the playfield from the rotisserie and dropped it in the cabinet.

Oh so beautiful! SHINY

Wow! Nothing more to say just Wow!

Cletus, when you reinstalled your wiring harnesses on the play field, which of the three did you start with? After looking mine over it seems like I need to start with the lights. But I can see benefits to starting with the switchs also.

Quoted from cletus:

Thanks! grumpy. I’ll look at that and reply.
Here’s some more pictures with everything installed on the completed and powered playfield.

Man oh Man @cletus14 that game is gorgeous. You have done one hell of a job. I especially like the new target faces and matching post rubber on each side. Bravo

Stick a 2x4 under the rear legs. Just for intimidation. When you get back home "upgrade" the rear legs to 31"

So did you get some different flipper bats after the show? Are you still running the translucent blue?

I am imagining Clark Griswold's electric meter. Man that game is the tits.

So when your guests play it how many times do you have to remind them of the upper flippers?

Quoted from cletus:

I love this game, but I still suck at it. I still haven’t made it on the high score board.[quoted image]

Man I hear you. I was thinking about it tonight. haven't had a good game in a while.

#227 4 years ago

I found some inspiration. Start at 1:20:00

Quoted from cletus:

Those Sharpe brothers are fun to watch. Watching Elwin play mine was a similar treat. The problem is now I know it’s me that’s bad and not my game’s setup.

What kind of score did he put up? Was he shooting for bonus loops non-stop?

On another note, I will be starting a new project. An Eight Ball Deluxe that came out of a barn. It is full of mud dobbers and spider webs. I will try to get the thread up tonight with some pictures.
