I installed my hardtop last night, and it went great. I wet sanded the inserts down to 2400 grit, and they look fantastic.
As I've begun the process of repopulating the playfield, I've noticed one problem-- the bottom of the metal ramp to the million point shot is slightly lower than the surface of the playfield. Has anyone else noticed this? Did it effect game play? I was thinking about making a flap out of a piece of spring steel. Thoughts?
Where would you suggest shimming? The bottom of that ramp attaches to the underside of the playfield, so trying to shim that would make the problem worse. Unless I'm misunderstanding...
Quoted from vid1900:If you wanted to raise the ramp, you'd have to remove a little bit of wood from the underside of the playfield.
Probably a 5 minute job.
I was waiting for someone to say that 
I'm not quite sure how to do that without running the risk of making a mess of the whole thing. How would you suggest tackling this?
Quoted from jeffkics:Does anyone have the vector art (or hires) for the ducks rabbits and dummy for the comet?
Pm me an email address. I have them somewhere.
