Awesome game room and here let me help :)

I will have to check how many I have left in my parts bin. I usually like to keep around 10-15 of these on hand.

I think bigbossfan (aka Reg) is thinking about selling his Williams IJ. I got to see and play it last week when I stopped by his place after snowboarding at Blue. The playfield is very nice and the boards look pretty clean although I did notice a flasher above his idol was locked on so we...

You don't need to disconnect anything to pull the playfield out as shown above. I think Cobra Mike pulled his Metallica playfield out to install decals and had enough slack to set it leaning against the coin door side of the cab?

I'm talking about the entire playfield Ed, Stern playfields are very easy to pull out of the cabinet because they just ride on a track inside the cab. That's why if you aren't careful or paying attention you can derail your playfield and drop into your cab! I would suggest doing it slowly with...

Just finished adding new Comet lighting on my MM. The game originally came with CoinTaker super brights in purple under the inlane plastics and some frosted white LEDs under the slings. Before: After: After with extra spotlights above the slings:

I've seen these installed in TSPP and looks great. Make sure you pull your playfield out of the cab and set it outside next to it. This will give you better access and make it much easier to apply the decals.

Looks like Dave Astill just listed some pins for sale here: Solar Ride - $800 - Collingwood http://www.kijiji.ca/v-toys-games/city-of-toronto/solar-ride-gottlieb-pinball-machine/1052251808?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true Blackout - $1100 - Collingwood...

Good call on Herg's board and LEDs really do make the inserts pop on all games. Keep in mind that in a home environment your pin will not take the abuse it does on route where it can be potentially on from 12-14 hours or more.

Hey Ed, I have not tried any of Comet's no flicker version of his LEDs. From my my past conversations with Art his regular Non Ghosting have a BR to prevent lighting below 3.5V and Optix uses a different method and has a cap to smooth flickering. Both of these are meant to be used for...

I have entertained some of these scams to the point where I push for a face to face meeting with this so called "agent" and they usually stop replying and move onto the next victim.

I just asked Art for some clarification for white color temp for his products: Warm White is 3000K-4000K Sunlight is 4000K-5000K Natural white 5000K to 6000K (other sellers may refer to this as "cool" white) So what you see above in my TOM and Shadow spot lights are warm white since the...

Yes, I added two spot lights over the sling shots and that is the sunlight white spot light bulb from Comet. I have some natural whites I can throw in one spotlight and take a pic for side by side comparison if you'd like. Actually I have to confirm, it could be the other way around now and I...

Just finished up TOM Before: After: Damn... I need to get my replacement trunk I loaned back from Brock :)

I also checked out your updated pinballowners page and you got quite the collection there so might not be a bad idea to start stocking up on some of these items like pin headers, molex connectors, fuses, etc... You can see my reply to FastEd's post on IDC connectors last week here...

I would recommend ordering online from Digi-key as they ship next day! www.digikey.ca Great Plains Electronics is also another good place to order from too for these type of things like headers, pins, etc... www.greatplainselectronics.com

That's what happens when you are in bed by 9pm.

I never knew about Internet Pinball Serial Number Database and will submit all my game serial numbers later tonight when I get home. Thanks for posting another great blog entry Rob and keep it up!

Unfortunately there are some people who have or stilling falling for these type of scams otherwise I don't think people would still be trying. It happens not matter what you are selling online via kijiji.
