One clean MM cab!

[libtech]

Hey why not continue on my adventures! Finished the cab being redone just need to reassemble the playfield now!

Went with brass, I wont lie, I like the look of MMR but the powder coat looks like s**t to me. Im unsure if the trim around the translite is too much.. may just switch to just the lift channel.. let me know what you think!

 

[SuperPinball]

looks awesome, who did your brasswork ? Is he local?

That's how MMR LE should have come with and not this mustard powder coat finish. Lookd great and I think you should go back to black trim for the backglass. It looks out of place and doesn't match the rest of the trim.

I agree with Wong 100% on all counts.

Yea thats the feeling I was getting too, "too much" im going to try with the lift channel gold but the rest black and see how it goes.

This stuff I just bought, didnt have the brass done since the rails were all dented, the legs were not straight lockbar was ok but I needed one for another game, so would have had to buy all the hadware to have plated. When I do totan next I probably will just take it local there are alot of plating shops in edmonton.

I wish I knew of a local place here on Toronto that could do plating on stainless steel parts similar to Chestnut quality. I'm currently testing out a local place not far from my work for powder coating some legs, side rails and lockdown bar.

Local to Toronto would definitely be nice, until then, Chestnut it is. Mike is shipping my parts today.

make sure you tell if you find one.

There back in black! Well minus the lift channel anyways, I like it better now. If anyone has a nice gold font speaker panel they want to sell or trade, let me know

Gonna save the trim for totan, I think it will look better on it - much lighter translite

 

[Menace]

Did you actually plate the rear mesh grill on the inside back of the cab too? If so, hats off to you my good man! Well done.

Any pics of the cab before the restore?? Looking great though!

 

[libtech]

Naw just beadblasted and metallic paint

I should have, the trim was all dinged, gouge out of the front other than that just scratches all over.. typical 5 shades of black paint, drips everywhere. The inside was diecent so I just had to clean it and paint a bit. Came out nice, I plan on blitzing the playfield over the next few days and get it going!

 

[libtech]

so close..

 

[Menace]

Outkast said it best... so fresh and so clean!

Is he a member on here?

Also for mods, added some lights! Castle got a green archway light, merlin got a light behind him, and the damsel got her tower lit up in purple!

 

[mwong168]

Looks great libtech and since you are lighting up all those areas you might as well do this plastic too

 

[libtech]

Good call! I was thinking it should have been lighted, but didnt do anything about it! I think I'll have to
