Looks great! I see you put a Cliffy on the side of the mini-playfield. That's a good call. Mine has a few small chunks missing because of stray air balls.

Is that a blue LED under the left Powerball arrow (Powerball loop), or is that just the bluish color of the "white" LEDs?

It is a cool white super, it looks a little more blue in the pic/video than in person, but they do have a slight blue color.

Thanks! I think it looks pretty good and also protects the switch wires from ball strikes. The wires were beat up when I first got it. Had to replace the wiring.

Oh yeah... I didn't even notice it. That's funny! He probably is a little jealous right now. He hasn't been getting much attention over the last couple weeks.

I am going to install a mirror in the back for sure. I had thought about the mirror blades too, but I kind of worry they would get scratched up as soon as I raise the playfield.
