Candidate #1 I can deal with has potential.

Candidate #2 definitely needs a playfield. It has a strange fade,broken shooter lane,screw pop outs,planking and insert wear.

Candidate 3 needs a good bit of insert work likely text replacement which I never feel is ideal unless no other option.
I can restore if absolutely needed but a better starting platform would be nicer if possible or new would be that much better.

Quoted from AlexSMendes:

I got a beautiful one if you're willing to pay for it + shipping...

Is it new or used?

#14 7 years ago
Quoted from Soltic:

Chris Do u know what happened to the cpr run?
I was waiting for my reservation on that prior to flipping the Bill Davis original I have that has the slight magnet burn that we spoke of but maybe now's the time.
Are all 3 machines spoken for?
Rod

Hi Rod
Not sure on the CPR run.
I actually learned not to count on anything in this hobby/business unless I can put my hands on it when I need it years ago and that CPR TAF run just further verifies it for me because I didn't need any playfields at the time but have since had 5 TAFs come in.
I wouldn't have preordered 5 anyway so not a big deal but for me from a business perspective as a service provider preordering parts that are not made yet and you dont even know if you will truly need them is foolish.

I am interested in the playfield I can fix some magnet burn .
These games all have owners as usual
Thanks.

Quoted from AlexSMendes:

Restored.... please PM me your e-mail so I can send you

the one I have is not as nice as what you have offered here. Just wanted to let you know since I am not going to pull it out of storage and grab pics since it appears you have plenty of options for nicer ones now.

Glitch.

Still open to taking a look at it if you are willing to send pics. I always prefer to start out fresh if possible .

#20 7 years ago
Quoted from AlexSMendes:

I got a beautiful one if you're willing to pay for it + shipping...

Got the pics.Thanks for the effort Alex but .....Let me just say.......................Woof! Beautiful is not an adjective I came up with when I saw that playfield and I seriously doubt anyone else would no offense meant but it is was such a stretch I have to acknowledge that here.
STILL LOOKING.

#22 7 years ago
Quoted from AlexSMendes:

LMAO.... let me just say..... woof!!! I'll change the adjective then... if anyone wants to see the GORGEOUS playfield that didn't meet "mr.king of high end restorations" expectations, feel free to shoot me a PM with your e-mail address and I'll be glad to send the exactly same photos....
Thanks for the effort... chris, isn't it? No offense taken!

I again truly appreciate the effort and dont want to come off like a snob so please post them here so people can see exactly what we are talking about.
You did say beautiful if you are willing to pay so I was expecting something much different .

#25 7 years ago

I like the Tuesday chicken wing special at Moes but didn't consider this playfield beautiful so I am still looking bump.

Quoted from Pinballmike217:

I have a new IPB repro. Registration is a little off around bookcase hole but is excellent around swamp and chair holes. One knot in shooter lane. Very slight twist, easily presses flat with one finger. Clear is nice but not a mile deep like you do. I have no idea what market value on this is. Take a look at pics and let me know what you think.
Mike

Thanks Mike
Looks good sent you a PM.

#49 7 years ago
Quoted from bam10:

Chris, how long do you usually let the clear dry before you sand and buff?

Usually 1 to 2 weeks.
The clear I use is catalyzed and made for an air dry overnight delivery on automobiles so 1 to 2 weeks is more than enough time as far as sanding and polishing goes.
I actually like to assemble games within this window when possible because there is more flex there during this time.

#55 7 years ago
Quoted from jimmyb:

Chris have you had good luck removing full mylar from TAF playfields in the past?

Yes I have not had too much trouble using the freeze spray method.
You need to be super careful in the jet bumper area because of the large round insert there.Very artsy not your standard size or simple black text there.

#56 7 years ago
Quoted from lordloss:

How many tafs have you restored over the years hep?

I used to know that but in the case of TAF/TAFG,,TZ,MM,MB,AFM,FH,IJ and maybe some other titles I lost count.

I would estimate at least 20-25 per title of those listed.
Stopped documenting every restore in my gallery because it is a bit easier to coordinate with the owners of the games via text these days but I hope to get back to that soon.

#57 7 years ago
Quoted from PavBall:

We have his most recent one. Love it!!! I know that doesn't answer your question but we are having so much fun with it I felt I had pipe in!!
HEP is amazing!!

Thanks.
Always good to hear when people are happy.
