hi guys a couple of pics of a few NF repairs,

firstly the ramp support posts were broken like they normally are,

not surprising with the speed and violence of this game,

so were drilled out and rethreaded in the lathe using a larger 8/32 thread size,and playfield posts drilled out and threaded to match.

originally 6/32 no wonder they break!

upper Ramp was reinforced with stainless top and bottom tying in all the mounting points,

and incorporated a polished corner guard which cops a hammering with mistimed jump shots..

apparently similar to a once available cliffy for this game but i need the tig welding practice *%*

other pic is a right hand stainless rail rfeinforcing the jump ramp entry which was also damaged..

fair bit of time in this but cheaper than a new ramp!

also flame polished ramp for good measure itr was almost opaque originally...

ramp flipper post was Flogged out so also rebushed it as well
