Hello all. My first thread after finding this site today. I have an old gottlieb "The Games" and did not like the game to much at all so I made this machine into Mudd Madness. ( I added 2 d's cause it looked better ). Anyway here are some pics of the change out.


My design ideas..


The finished design..

The next step is to paint the cabinet and add graphics to it.

The Vector is going through rehab right now. Fixed the sound board, flipper solinoid and replaced about 15 bulbs. I just tore down the playfield and am redoing it original. That is my trading machine!!

I think it looks great!  Good job!  How did you do the playfield graphics?  Is it a giant overlay?  Did you clearcoat it as well?  Explain, new comer!!    

Seriously though, I'd love to know some details.  

And welcome to the board!

Looks real good, I like the design and you gave a second life to a machine!  As stated, in previous threads can you add a bit more details on your process for the playfield? What is your idea for the cab and how do you plan on doing it.

What can I say, we like pictures AND details..........I forgot "Welcome"

I scanned the playfield info from the manual to give me the locations of the bulbs and targets. I used Corel Draw 12 to design everything. Taking bits from the internet and designing the rest myself. After sizing and checking the measurements I digitally printed the image on high performance vinyl. I wasnt sure if I was going to like it and wanted to be able to change it back just in case so I covered it with another layer of clear vinyl. I can clear coat it but was just making sure this is what I wanted to do. The backglass is covered with digitally printed translucent vinyl, the original paint was almost gone so I cleaned it off. I used 1/8 clear lexan for all the plastic with the same process of printing.
