Currently finishing up my Eros one. Almost done. It works but I need to replace the capacitors and connectors. Anyone know where I can find 15pt Mate-n-lok board mounts?

Also trying to finish my Andromeda but I need to figure out why the MPU won't flash.

Working on my Bally Nitro Groundshaker but sidelined for a while because of hand and rotor cuff surgery 2 weeks ago!
Also need to finish my Skee Ball so i can get it sold.

Bally Radical
Gottlieb 2001
Sonic SUPER STRAIGHT

We are currently working on 3+ projects.

Indy is half way home. I am currently awaiting the playfield. It is out being cleared. While I wait Ive decided to get my Bally Atlantis's going. I want them working before I start into the restoration.

My son is slowly working on his Doctor Who. The cabinet is just about complete and we will be starting the playfield any day now.
Oh yea I decided to shop out an ACDC in between restorations.

I've been trying to finish my Allied Leisure Dynomite. The kickout coil isn't firing. I've been trying to find the issue for weeks. Ugh.

Finishing up my Diamond Lady....

High Speed & 76 Royal Flush.

High Speed - Mylar glue removal phase - so will probably never be done.

Royal Flush - Haven't had much time into it. Found a replacement insert so i need to re-glue the inserts to start and go from there.

Getting close to finishing up a MB HE that is sold to a customer (waiting on head paint to cure, also will have green legs, chrome just for setup purposes) Just finished redecaling a NGG which is sold as an average game with new decals. Working on wiring up out Star Gazer that we are building from scratch (just got switches left to wire up). And last an TAF that is torn apart awaiting a playfield. Pinball Company techs are busy over the holiday!20151231_180714_(resized).jpg20151231_180725_(resized).jpg20151231_180734_(resized).jpg

No pics yet but in currently working on 4 machines. Earthshaker, Game Show, Gorgar, and Mr. & Mrs. Pac-Man. All in various stages of completion.

I'm not really doing restorations, I'm doing refurbishments - get them working and playing nicely without going whole hog on a complete teardown.

I've got a Meteor and a Paragon in for that. Meteor is almost done - every board needed work, plus all those crappy light sockets. Just cleanup fixing now.

Paragon is next, it needs major playfield work. That'll be my first decal job.

After that, my plan is to do a full restoration on an Abracadabra, my first resto on an EM.

Two other long term projects are a Strange Science and Mustang EM-to-SS conversion.

At the moment I'm working on bringing a 1948 Gottlieb Buccaneer back to life.

Working on BOP 2.0, but now that i have redone the cabinet, i think i will put in a new playfield, so i guess i am at a stand still until i get one.

I plan to spend summer camp at O-din's house. I'm betting I could learn a shit ton of stuff about EMs from him.

Starting on an AFM in a few months (when the weather warms up). Will have a restoration thread to document my incompetence.

Shitload aboot drinking. I know I know I know....you can hold your own...so you think.

Everybody's welcome to come and take the Big Daddy challenge.

No thanks. One beer for me and somebody else is driving. I'm the guy that's fun when sober and then becomes like as soon as he starts drinking.

My Baby Pacman stopped working a few weeks ago, so it's now in my work space.
I also have a Harlem Globetrotter project that is sitting on my cart, trying to bring it back from the dead.

Working on three games.

Fireball II
Fathom
Heat Wave

Al three play. All three will end up pretty as well.

Working on a Williams Fire. Doing a ground up restoration with some custom features. I have always liked the artwork on this machine. In a rental house why we build so taking a little longer than I had hoped but on the downhill stretch.

Done sir! PM me the address and I'll be there. (As long as you are not too far from LA), lol.

On topic.. will TRY to start my Tommy PF swap in 2016. Minty cabinet but blown out PF to replace with sweet NOS Kruzman special!!!

Finishing up a TZ that belongs to a client, then going to start on his MM.

Just picked up a Boomerang the other day (Thanks big time to Pinsider GPS) So far I have the playfield stripped and 2 out of the 4 score reel banks cleaned and adjusted best I know how. Wires are cut to the knocker and credit unit. When I press the credit button the score will reset but then the score motor keeps running. My first EM so lots of learning to do. So far I love working on it!

Just finished today a ground up restore on a Flash Gordon for a friend.

I'm working on a Power Play. My first ever pin and I have spent more on tools I need than the actual game / parts lol. And TIME ... in between work and just plain life this thing will take me the better part of a year at this rate but I'm learning as I go.

Grand Lizard.I just a few minor issues left.
I just love the game.It's a good System 11.

Pinbot. Looking forward to putting it back together once I get my CPR PF back (it needed a couple touchups and reclear).

God you can get worse?

I'm debating on starting my Shadow or Banzai. Probably Shadow.

Working on my AFM cab almost done starting the PF change soon

you mean to tell us you make most of your posts sober?

I got a "free" Memory Lane. my guess of it needing a new bridge rectifier was confirmed. pretty good shape. back glass is perfect. so it sits in my garage as I debate putting the money into it, learning about this era of pin (which i know less about than the modern ones , if that's possible), and doing a 'restore' this winter...hmmmmm.

Yesh.

Not so much a restore currently but Playfield swap on Getaway. Next is TOTAN for a full swap and then cabinet decals on IJ. After that who knows!

BoP resto in progress. Cab almost ready for decals, waitin for my pf.....
Pics next time.

I'm in the process of having this installed. It's been a long wait. Took forever to finally find the playfield but found it. It has several coats of clearcoat with time spent between each. The final product will be sweet with a new flipper rebuild and whatever it takes to make it perfect. It will be going into nice clean machine with original cabinet artwork in great shape. Pictures of it will come after it is completed. Hopefully before March. Can anyone catch the flaw in the artwork? There is one.

Almost forgot: I'm doing a POTC playfield swap very soon as well. Pray for me.

Don't you need a game to swap the playfield with.

Shopping/restoring police force.

Neat pin.

Doing a CPR F2K pf swap and cab freshening up, Total restore on Haunted House with multi ball and speech and restoring an Air Aces for a friend (paying gig) and already thinking about what I'm going to do next

The first-ever Pinside Basement cross-reference...let me know if you can hear this from down there:

Loud and clear.
HaHa

You need to speak louder. I can't here you over the sound of my POTC playing.
