Quoted from Steph

The whole machine looks spectacular.

Awesome work Ian.

When can you come over to work on "my" projects ?    



Steph


I would love to, but I have so many myself, it is nuts. I am mostly working for others right now... but I don't know which machine of mine I should do first... maybe I will do a poll for fun.

The final stretch...

I was having some problems assembling the playfield, so I decided to build a rotisserie to do it. Total cost = 35$, and works like a charm. Fully adjustable and compact. Bolts on to my work table.

I am now reassembling the playfield, should be done with 2-3 hours of work. Then, all I have left is clean the coindoor and put it in the cab.

The final phase! I put in the boards in the cabinet yesterday, and she works great! I just have to find two displays for it, and a couple of little parts. Other than that, it starts a game and everything, just needs the typical switch adjustments and light socket checks.

I ordered the last parts I needed. New light sockets for the pop bumpers and a rubber kit, but I did forget to order a sticker for the coindoor. I will look on Ebay for one.

Playboy didn't come with a coin door sticker. Bally didn't start using them until later on.
