Will you be removing the mylar? It looks like nearly all the pf has been protected and looks pretty sweet underneath.

Mine was a labour of love but worth it. I though it was a pretty good pin even though it doesn't get the love.

Good luck with the project

The grey dot shading on the cannon and the blue dot shading on the "smoke" were decals I made in a drawing program. The rest was a mixture of hand painting, spraying with frisket mask and using paint washes.

I used the paint washing when I needed to replace paint in the dithered areas on the playfield. I tried to create a decal to reproduce this effect but nothing really came close. Also, I wasn't really convinced that the decal colours for this would be strong enought to not be washed out by the paint layer underneath. Pretty much all of the pf had some sort of attention

Here are a couple of pics of your missing gate (with ramp removed).

I don't know if it's obvious from the pics but the gate sits horizontally underneath the exit hole of the ramp so that it is activated by the ball when it drops through. A connecting rod attaches to the gate (you can just see it where the slingshot plastic is cut out) and goes through that hole in the playfield. Your switch should extend to underneath the hole and the connecting rod then connects to the switch and closes it when the gate is activated.
