"Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational battle station!"
Err... wait, wrong franchise.
Anywho, when I picked up my STTNG it wasn't playable. There were some opto issues, the trigger mechanism was broken, lots of solder joints came loose, missing switches..
Anyway, fast forward to today and I've finally finished shopping her out with 7 coats of wax, new rubbers, a NOS plastic set signed by Steve Ritchie and some LED's (sorry, Adam.. they look good under inserts). I also made a custom Borg cube label for the back panel, and I'll be printing some artwork for inner sides as well.
see here:
I'm also creating a lighted Borg sphere mod. Something simple, I don't want to "junk up" the pf too much, there's already a lot going on.
Still to do:
- I've got a speaker upgrade in the mail from Flipper Fidelity. GREAT prices.. $154 shipped for the dual 5" w/ woofer upgrade.
- The GI is out, it's a connector problem. Need to order the parts first.
- The flippers need a rebuild for sure, but for now I've just cleaned the plungers with Novus and threw in some new coil sleeves. It'll have to do for now, I'm tapped out.

Any chance you could make an extra copy of the interior side art? I ended up buying Bish's STTNG a while back (actually my boss bought it from me) and he has been obsessed with tuning it up ever since. Currently it has a treasure cove back decal and I think you side art would add a lot to the machine. Let me know how much you want for a set if you are interested.
Also I am curious to know if you have done any painting to the ships in the machine. We painted all the ships and it has come out looking pretty sharp. PM me for some picks if you were looking for a few ideas. Thanks.
