Built an Addams Family completely from parts this winter/spring. NLA parts that were handmade include wire harnesses, ball guides / metal parts, light insert panel, and Thing box. Have all guides and various metal brackets in CAD if anyone else needs them. Laser cut from 18ga stainless by HeMan40 (Dino) then bent with small brakes and hand tools. Converted to a “Stern type” slide out playfield system. Makes for easy access to playfield assemblies. Was able to make the backboard taller and added some graphics. Went with Fliptronics 2 and PBL flipper optos. Running ColorDmd LED display. Populated a bare sound board by Victor T (Dumbass) Most excellent Greed Book Mod from Mark Jenison. Pioneer backbox speakers w/Lpad.
Painted and decaled the head/cab using Phoenix Arcade silkscreened art. PinGraffix for PinBlades. Local dude, Bill Webb built the sweet bare cab. Bare head from Virtua Pin.
Used playfield from Pinside Market that was listed as touched up and cleared by HEP. Looks really sweet! Color scheme for jets/buttons inspired by HEP Thank you, Chris, for hosting your wonderful gallery of past restorations.
Thanks to Dankme (Steve) for drawing the lampboard PCB’s. Thanks to Greg Bitz for measuring guides/brackets on his TAF. Thanks to Gatordad (Mike C) for allowing me to check some of his TAF wiring. I have some really great pinball buds.
