Quoted from Hans_Saris:

Welcome back. Love your channel!

Quoted from mbeardsley:

Yes, love the video so far. I'm in the middle of a shop job on my own WH20, and hoping to gain some insights from this.

Quoted from Zartan:

You could have “Stored”it at my place! I wouldn’t have had to buy one myself!
Lol

Quoted from Kerry_Richard:

Shenanigander ... I too watched your video. Looking forward to following your restore.
BTW: My WH20 topper does not have the mirrored type adhesive film under topper. However, my FishTales and my spare old original WH2O dome, white plastic decal back mount and original metal etched decal, both have the mirrored adhesive film under it. I may source that mirrored film out out and install it in my WH20. It may give more waterfall light effect in topper.

Quoted from Bryan_Kelly:

The metal foil tape heating contractors use to wrap seams in ductwork works great.

Quoted from mbeardsley:

My original WH20 dome does not have any top foil or stickers on it and I've owned it since late 1996, and I doubt that it "fell off" before that.
So, I don't believe that they originally came with the foil on it.

Quoted from yzfguy:

I'd also be a buyer. I have the decal on there, but it just isn't the same.

Quoted from Bryan_Kelly:

I've restored maybe a dozen WH2O's over the years and everyone of them had the tape installed and intact.

Quoted from Bryan_Kelly:

I remember a couple with the foil in the top of the dome. I suppose many could have been replaced and no operator was going through the trouble of installing new foil.
I chose not to try it either. Looked like too much of a bitch.

Quoted from Drac:

I added a few pine trees to my game. I think they look quite good scale-wise and fit the theme. I bought them from eBay and when received them found that the green stuff on the trees can drop a bit on the playfield. I sprayed a little clear coat on them before I mounted them and all good.[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from Drac:

The trees don't shed unless I rub my hands over them or something like that so they are all good after the clear coat. Prior to that, they would shed if you bumped them. I've had them on my game for over a year now I'd say.
I don't remove the playfield to install art blades. I kind of do it like this:
1. Have playfield in upright position.
2. Hold art blade in position and then use masking tape to keep it in place.
3. Start at the coin door end and peel off maybe 12 inches of backing and then cut that off and fix that end of the decal in place.
4. With the playfield in the upright position, make sure it is slid back as far as you can.
5. Make sure the decal is still lined up all the way and start peeling the backing off starting at the section you cut and then head towards the back of the game.
6. When you get to the position of the upright playfield, carefully slide the upright playfield to its most forward position (past the point that you had stuck the decal).
7. Apply the rest of the decal to the back.
My directions above really suck but it's actually very easy. It would be better to explain with photos or a vid. I hope it helps anyway.

Quoted from OTRChief:

Installing side art is much easier with two people. If you install side art on your games, I suggest you purchase an Interior Cabinet Game Blade Protector Set for when you are working on a game in the future. WW is a particularly tight fit. Pinball Life sells them https://www.pinballlife.com/interior-cabinet-protector-blade-set.html?Category_Code=

Quoted from Lhyrgoif:

Normally I think people add way too much mods (like plastic animals) to their games, especially when there are eagles, bears , rafts and half a toy store on the playfield, but these trees are actually really fitting the theme. Something about that green lush color amongst all the brown. Will consider doing something similar.

Quoted from Flipper_McGavin:

An adhesive spray might do even better to prevent shedding.

His trees look like these:

Quoted from yzfguy:

I have both on mine. Those targets take a beating and the reinforced brackets keep them from eventually bending backwards.

Quoted from yzfguy:

I can't remember where I got mine.... I remember it was a right fit to put them in with he protectors, but they just fit. Let me poke around in my old orders and see if I can find them.

Quoted from yaksplat:

My bigfoot head stopped turning. I borrowed a board from my buddy's Dr who and tested it in my machine. Bigfoot came back to life. So I ordered the homepin remake of the board from pinball life. I'm happy to report that the homepin board works as well as the original. Mine had corrosion on the board from the cap leaking. I cleaned it up and installed a new cap but it still didn't work. [quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from yaksplat:

Right, but $65 for the board is a lot less than an hour of my time.

Quoted from Davi:

Good question. According to parts list, there are 2 pcs mini dome cover in White Water: one above Whirlpool flasher, and one in Waterfall ramp.
On the other hand, I saw the cover at the cave in HEP gallery.[quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from Davi:

This is the part number: 03-8662-9
And a spacer is also required (~5mm).

Quoted from Zartan:

Gorilla glue didn’t work. It looks like snow on the trees.
