    Ultimate TAF Mod!

    After playing WOZ I have to agree with some, that having a big-ass screen on top of my pinball game does very little for me. It may be cool, but adds little for me. Let's remember that the translite was a means of attracting players and had nothing to do with game play. I don't see the function...

    *HELP* Bally 6803 sound problems - Special Force

    I'll leave that one to smarter folks than me. Your manual should tell you how many flashes the LED on the board should give you on startup. Each flash indicates that something has been checked and passed. If it stops short, the manual tells you where the issue likely lies. For example. Your...

    ON shipping for Gerry's APR/MAY container SIGN-UP

    Hi everyone. Well, we've taken a bit of a hit and lost 3 members in this group transport. Good numbers are key to getting a good rate so, If anyone else needs a game transported to Toronto (with a drop off the 401 near Ottawa), please let me know. Right now, with the quotes I am getting, its...

    Twilight Zone Diverter Magnet Mod

    Great tip! I did the exact same thing on my old TZ but with a large round rare earth magnet instead; and some super thin DST from 3M. The metallic looking magnet blends in perfectly and is really narrow. I think Lee Valley Tools carries them. http://www.leevalley.com/en/wood/page.a ... 2363,42348

    Hi Everyone, I have a brand new unopened set of stencils for EBD. I bought it new from classic arcades. This is a full kit to re-do your entire cabinet and head; peel and stick. I bought it to possibly re-do my last EBD but sold the game and do not need them. $150

    Next ColorDMD release is...

    It's too bad they didn't have this capabitlity back in the 90's. This really does look like it should've always been there.

    *HELP* Bally 6803 sound problems - Special Force

    Got some new PIA chips in the mail today. Looks like I'm starting with swapping out some ICs first.

    Gold plating on habitrails

    Once my TOTAN arrives I will defintiley be doing this. Mike charged me $300 to do all the metal on my IJ (except legs... IJ already had brass legs). This includes the purchase of new side rails. I just had to mail him my lockbar, backbox hinges and the bolts.

    Gold plating on habitrails

    Here's a big batch I did with Sun Polishing here in Toronto. About $250 for a whack of interior parts and some legs. No trim or wireforms this time.

    Gold plating on habitrails

    Yeah, they're okay but a bit of a pain. I'll use them for wire forms and anything under the playfield or inside the cabinet.... but stick to Mike Chestnut for things like rails and lock bars. They're good if you save up a lot of parts and do a batch. Not very friendly on little stuff.

    *HELP* Bally 6803 sound problems - Special Force

    Okay, Headers have been re-flowed bewteen sound board and MPU. Connectors have been re-built. No change in bahaviour :( I have ordered some ICs to test out that route. I also plan to change out some line filter caps to see if I can get something happening. Not good all around

    Looks like we are down 1 (and possibly 2) members on this run. The more the cheaper, so hopefully we can keep the rest.

    Playfield touch up - Zaccaria Farfalla

    Sadly, the cabinet was not in as good shape as the playfield... so I'm having to re-draw some of the stencilled artwork. The good news is that, by the time this is done, the playfield will be cured and ready to play :) Here are a couple of before and after pics of the cab in progress.

    Playfield touch up - Zaccaria Farfalla

    I thought some of you would appreciate this. I showed the touch-up earlier in this thread. Well... I finally finished the whole playfield. I won't go into detail on every little touch-up, but the clearcoat is done and I can't wait to get this game back together. Here are some pics.
