Pictures, or it didn't happen!!

So, I'm at the point with my RG that I'm going to have to start trouble shooting a couple of boards. The CPU board I have has quite a few burn marks, as well as several questionable solder jobs. The AUX board has a couple of components that I see are missing. If I can find working boards for a...

Has anybody ordered from these guys? http://pinballmagic.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=12&products_id=23&zenid=3d6b10b4699c83a16ee81c3d2a147786 Has anybody ordered a kit like that from somewhere? I can get all those screw/nut sizes from work, but they're all with Allen/hex heads...

Re: You say you want a (Pinball) revolution - uh, not in Chi Or you could use the Tor browser. When I opened mine just now, it thinks I'm in the US: I've even 'been' in the middle of the ocean before. :P

After having very little time to work on RG during the past week, I finally have a day off I can spend putting it back together. You can see the detail shots I took of the playfield before I started pulling it apart. I highly recommend doing this if you've never taken one apart before. Heck...

Wagons are over-rated!

I'm hoping to tackle some playfield restoration in the near future... I'm sure I'll be able to learn a lot from this thread! Thanks for posting.

I've got the rubbers/LED's onto the playfield, so today I spent a bit of time cleaning up the the ramp assembly. It turned out pretty well: BEFORE: BEFORE: AFTER: This is what came off of just one of the ramps. Barf:

I'd likely only try stuff like that on small things like wire gate brackets and stuff. For the big metal ramps, I will indeed come a callin' for your buffer. :)

Bookmarked. Thanks!

Ah yes, I forgot to mention last night... I had decided not to take off the metal bits yet. I might save that for another time. Thanks again for the offer, though. I may still bring something by in the near future. :)

Picked up some stuff for the playfield today... [b]- LED's for GI, flashers and pop bumpers. - Rubbers. (posts, rings, flippers etc) - Star posts I'll hopefully have the playfield back together by early in the week. Then the tough work begins!

LoL! After a few beers and night full of pinball, that is the perfect guest bed!

So many potential road-trips out there... yet another one to pencil in.

I guess Red's taken a turn for the worse? :(

Easily in my top 3 arcade games ever!!

Right? I spent so much time on them I was worried I'd hit wood. (*giggle* 'hit wood')

So after some substantial Novusing I've got the playfield quite a bit cleaner than when I started. But I have quite a few spots (most not covered in Mylar) that have stubborn marks left. Is there a safe way to get rid of them? Or is the risk of ruining the paint too great to try scrubbing it away?

As silly as it sounds, two reasons I never watched the three TF movies... Optimus was a new-school tractor. (not the cab-up-front truck like in the 80's) Bumble bee wasn't a Volkswagen beetle. it looks like this one has OP the way he should be... I just might watch this one!
