    Vid,

    Would it be possible for you to show or explain how you put the playfield back inside the cabinet without scratching the sides? Is there a way to make this task a little easier? Thanks!

    Quoted from uncivil_engineer:

    Two things I did to make it easier:
    1. Protect the inside of the cabinet with a layer of masking tape. I use blue painters tape, and it is pretty easy to tell where the playfield scrapes on it when you raise and lower the playfield.
    2. When you move the playfield to the cabinet, get some help. Last time I did it, it took three people: one on either side of the playfield, and one to help keep the wiring harness out of the way. We were doing a funhouse, so we put the playfield in vertically, and lowered onto the mounting pins.

    Excellent idea! Is Funhouse mounted on the pivot pins like TAF or Does it have the slide mechanism?

    Quoted from Lamprey:

    Not really needed to put a playfield back into a cab, but can be used for that purpose. Rather, if you have mirror blades or decals to help protect them when you are working on your machine(s):

    Looks like a good option to protect the side art! Thanks!
