Nice Video! Helpful for me as I prepare to rebuild my first classic Bally.

Quoted from Lindsey:

As usual, constructive criticism is encouraged, but let's keep the discussion positive.

My only criticism would be, especially for a "101" video would be not to use metal tools to poke around while the machine is on - beginners might not have the same level of care that you do. I like the plastic "spudger" tool for this purpose- http://www.frys.com/product/6543703

finally finished watching. The walk-through of the flipper system using the actual stuff and the schematics is really really nice and hopefully will be used by folks for a long time.

One other suggestion - it was long, so this could have been more approachable by breaking it up into a few parts - or at least posting a table of contents for each section.

Overall though, great job and I look forward to more.

One more thing I forgot to add - I would have liked to see the schematic work to explain the cabinet switch interference you found.
