Road trips over..., got home at 5:20 in morning to listen to the birds chirping....   Needless to say this is one mother's day I am going to have to make up for....

Thanks to all the guys along the way that were patient with us being later - and in being at the meeting places ready!

Vic, I hope your van got started and you & your brother made the street hockey game!

Todd (IBCrackin') - I hope you are recovering from the wrong phone number making you think we made you pay for us to steal your TZ!

Adam (Vengence) - Thanks for meeting us again!

In Cambridge we picked up six pins - TZ, IJ, ST:TNG, FH, FGordon & Sure Shot.    We made great time to the seller's house.   Then, she forgot to tell us that when the pins were brought into the game room they had 4-5 strong boys.   The stairs were narrow with a landing - no way we could lift a game up & over the railing.    So, we actually thought of leaving - as the task ahead was daunting.    

Not sure if this is Sylvain (Azatotht's) method - but we removed all the WPC heads - taking the 50+ cables off - yikes.   Now we have a few puzzles to put together.   It took us over 4 hours to load the machines....

Machines were in nice cosmetic shape - so I think it was all worth it.

When I tried to call you and the number came back as "unassigned" I thought I'd just been had by the mythical Mr. Anderson.
It's ok though because before I found your correct cell number I sent the medvet a pm and she put my mind at ease.
I also remember her mentioning not to worry...I'm not exactly sure what she said but there was Doug and horse tranqualizers and TZ not showing up at Enzo's.

Thanks again Doug and Barry it was nice to meet you guys, and it saved me the hassle of getting it there.

This is it my friend, its no big deal when you get used to it. Just take the extra time to label connectors with a sharpie to prevent the "puzzle state"

Now, 6 games... i'm not sure i would love it but one at once here is not bad, just enough to think about it before selling/trading a game i still like   Have you noticed that the games were much lighter to move after that anyway, TZ and STTNG especially...


Currently owning:
- Solar Fire, Medusa, Flash Gordon, (Centaur), No Fear

I brought sharpies - and we knew we should use them - but we didn't.   We're hoping they will naturally bend to the original positions...

...and yeah - they were much lighter once the heads were off - made them not only smaller but easier to manage.   We were at least smart enough to start with the heaviest first; our guess was:
ST:TNG
IJ
TZ
FH
FGordon
Sure Shot

Wishful thinking.  

Better have a manual handy, especially for this pins that are keyed alike in the same positions (J133 and J135 come to mind).
