Love to see what everyone is working on. I will be working on a Hardtop - Space shuttle following Vid's guide with a few tweaks.
Planning to document my entire approach. Fingers crossed.

Single digits already. Winter is here where I live. Restoring comet, cyclone and pinbot! Might go back to my silverball if a lost insert turns up miraculously.
If only CPR would finally push out Gorgar I would be set for another "every screw" build. That would get me through most all winter. Oh well.
Quoted from Completist:I’ve got a project Seawitch i’ll start working on, after i do a pf swap on a friends BSD. Also going to help my son with his first shop job on a Space Shuttle.
Jeez! I wish I were that ambitious!
Hardtop and a new ramp for Taxi. Have it all sitting in the basement ready to go. Got it playing 100% this spring and planning to make it look real nice this winter. Probably LED that and another game or 2 too.
Quoted from cosmokramer:Just bought a fully populated Bad Cats playfield...going to build a whole new game around it...anybody got any parts?!?

i'm pretty impressed with that box they made to ship that.
Only thing for me is a full teardown, shop and clean on the Diner I just picked up. It needs some inserts set and decals done. That'll be fun.
Unless something falls into my lap this will be the first time in a couple years I don't have a line of projects waiting.
My winter goal is to finish off the King Pin (Gottlieb 1973) restoration I have been variously working on and neglecting for work. No idea if the future holds enough free time but damn if I am not going to try to finish this so I can finally get back to the Playboy (Bally SS) I put on hold to do the king pin.
I am reorganizing my shop area. Hopefully this will be the last time this is needed. With that done I plan on spending Dec, Jan and Feb finishing my basement man cave. This will be the 3rd winter I have worked on that project. When done it should hold about 35 pins, a jukebox, a dartboard and have a bar with seating for 5. Full bath with a shower. Shop is on the other side of the basement.
Quoted from StylesBitchly:I’m combining actual 3D printed human organs with a Pinbot. Still in the proof of concept stage.
I want to see this!
Shopping AG Soccer Ball right now. Then have to fix electrical issues before I ship it to a buyer.
Then it's choice time. Have a usa football I am keeping but needs shopped. Supposed to be getting a MNF project, no boards/backglass/pf in pieces. Then there are the two unshopped radicals and their stupid ramp mold I am 85 percent done on.
Waiting for the board to ship back for apb... then doing a mini restore to firepower.. should be done before the end of the year. Then I want to take a stab at something newer. I really want a jackbot.. a really beat up TAF would be awesome too (dreaming)
On my new earthshaker, someone removed the mylar and must have lost insert art. So, they slapped down non laminated decals over the bumpy, half clear coated inserts. This was my first shot at this, but I sanded the inserts and applied new decals. I'm psyched with the outcome. Not perfect, but pretty nice compared to what I started with! I have mylar enroute, but my question is this: do I individually mylar each insert I repaired, or cut a sheet along the artwork border and cover multiple inserts in sections?
