Quoted from merccat:

The vote is yes, we will go for it.
Even if the paint falls off in shipping at least we will have a good reference for mounting the displays
Edit: if its going to cost a lot to ship... not sure if it would be worthwhile.... but, we'll need something. Please let me know what you'll need to ship, would hate for you to be out anything if it ends up falling apart.

It doesn't look like it, but anu chance that backglass has been coated (I.e. triple thick) at all? If it was coated (and fully dry obviously) it sure would make the chances better that yhe paint will stay in place during shipping.

Not trying to put more work on superbee when already being generous to project, just worth a mention to help save what is there.

Minor update:
Today we had some kids come by the lab. They were actually familiar with the game from the Wii but had never seen an actual physical pinball machine. They got a kick out of it and put in several games, even playing doubles.
Anyway, while school is in session it’s pretty hard setting the game up and breaking it back down after a few hours. We’ll probably be picking it back up during the summer when we can keep it setup.
Meanwhile I have been building an I/O board and starting plans for building a custom game. The students will be coming up with the theme, helping with layout and some mechs. We have quite a few ideas that should engage several in the club.

Can't wait to see the next project you guys do!
