    LF: Shadow plastic set

    I'm looking for a plastic set for the Shadow. I've tried all usual suspects but it seems that everything is sold out. Anyone have an extra set they would be willing to part with or know where I can get my hands on one? I surveyed my entire machine and every single plastic on the machine is...

    Same bulb burning out multiple times?

    As for the insert light, try the solder pads, solder around pins, etc. I like to use a spot sanding pen (for autobody repair) and rough up the socket a little to make sure there is good contact. I have had this a few times, it is frustrating, but feels good when you finally fix it for good...

    Shadow left ramp right ring switch

    To be honest I was at the point of bending my actuator completely straight when it broke, so I abandoned the idea. I'll try again. Thanks.

    Shadow left ramp right ring switch

    Damn smart kids. Thanks Adam. I always thought these switches were for bending your own. Never even thought to leave it straight. Thanks, I'll have to put an order in. Good luck in Germany!

    This pic is off IPDB, not my machine, but this is the switch I am talking about on the Left ramp it is the right ring switch.

    Shadow left ramp right ring switch

    Does anyone else have an insanely difficult time trying to get this switch to work 100% of the time, or am I the only idiot. All in all I have screwed with it for at least 2-3 hours. The switch works fine in the switch test, 100%. The problem is when I rocket the ball around on a skill...

    How To: DIY Under cabinet lighting

    I'm with you there. I had read somewhere someone doing the same thing using a cold cathode light. I set out originally to do the same thing. Problem is with a cold cathode light you will still see a strong line instead of individual dots. I'm not sure how to better spread the light, maybe...

    How To: DIY Under cabinet lighting

    Mine looks almost the same. Only difference is I used yellow instead of green and I mounted it back back farther beyond the lip. I didn't really like the fact that I had a strong LED reflection off of the play field . But the problem I have now is the light only goes half was back on the play...

    How To: DIY Under cabinet lighting

    I had not yet read your post till now, but yesterday I picked some of the yellow LED strp lighting up at a local electronics shop and used a 6" section to light up the battlefield on my Shadow. My mind was racing on the possibilities of this stuff. Very easy to use. I tied mine in with Gator...

    I'M IMMORTAL!

    Finally made it to the final battle battle on my Shadow and FINISHED IT! Quite possibly the best game ever. I was convinced I blew up the machine when it went dark as I made the last shot. The Shadow is a really under appreciated game. The mutliballs on this game are fantastic with a mix of...

    October Container Deal discussion

    Just thought I would repost this for any others looking for a container deal. As you have read already it is a bit of a crap shoot. Here are my thoughts on my Shadow. The more I play with it the happier I am becoming about the machine. It has definately been neglected, but at least it has...
