Quoted from Davi:What is the best sideblade/pinblade/sideart for WH2O?
I have https://www.pingraffix.com/product-page/whitewater-pinblades which I like. I have side art or mirror blades on all of my games. Whitewater is the tightest fit and the art is easy to damage because of this.
Quoted from Alamo_Pin:If you are going to put art blades on your games—especially whitewater because it’s such a tight fit—I highly recommend these protectors from pinball life.
Do you know what these protectors are made of? Whitewater is the tightest fit of all my games. I use poster board as a protector when I lift the playfield and still have some damage.

Quoted from GCS2000:So what does everyone have for a colordmd?
I have Color DMDs in 10 of my games and I like both versions. I use LED versions when they are easier to install or are the only version available: BR, AF, A13 & BW. I have LCD versions in WW, FT, ST, RS, POTC & Monopoly. All of the colordmds at the PHOF are LCDs.

It is time for me to replace batteries. Out of 14 games I was down to 4 that needed AA or AAA batteries. The rest had NVRams or coin cells. WW was one of the remaining games that needed batteries and adding an NVRam would require soldering in a new RAM socket. This is above my soldering skill level. I ordered 4 coin cell battery boards from TNT for $13.99 each Plus shipping. They are much easier to solder in place and seem to work well.Battery Board01 (resized).jpg

Quoted from Zartan:I just bought mine! Extremely happy so far! I have ordered the art blades and a skull mountain. I’m extremely nervous about trying to install the blades but I think I can do it.

Quoted from Shenanigander:Did you remove the playfield to install the art blades?
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 mbeardsley:even when I push it through, the ball gets stuck again inside the bottom of the funnel.
Take the ramp back off. Does the ball go through the funnel when the ramp is not installed? If it does than then it is not being installed correctly. Don't Dremel the funnel.

Quoted from Pinoffski:I scraped some of the artwork off .
Vinyl is super thin?
Not like a next gen decal .?
Going to sand it off anyhow.
I always use a heat gun to remove old decals. Sometimes you just heat & scrape small pieces, but sometimes you get a good edge and can pull off a large section. I've done 2 cabinets with regular decals and one with RadCals. I really like the RadCals because you can't wrinkle them during the application.

Quoted from LePopHumper:So, our arcade has WH2O and we're experiencing a problem with it. The Whirlpool Challenge doesn't seem to give out a second ball. Isn't that supposed to be a 2 ball multiball usually?
Is this something that can be changed in settings or might there be some other issue that could cause it?
One ball should be delivered to the shooter lane and the second ball kicked out of the Lost Mine. Where is your single ball coming from?
