OK major progress on the weekend..
- The main cabinet is stripped, sanded and wood filled, just waiting for the filler to dry and will sand back ready to start painting.. Got an orbital sander today, so much better/faster than my old detail sander..
- Playfield is fully populated again, (semi)transparent rubbers, all new post, any broken plastics replaced plastic ramps and metal flaps cleaned and polished, vertical post rubbers (beside hole and ramps) replaced with red rubbers.
- Martians have glowing eyes (red leds).
- Metallic red flipper bats with semi translucent green rubbers.
- All lights above and below playfield replaced with coloured Noflix Plus LEDs, including flashers which are coloured too where appropriate.
- Back box light board (behind translite) in place and 12v LED strips stuck on, not sure if I will just have everything on or use the small strips as flashers linked to various lights/modes on the playfield, and just leave the two long strips on all the time.
- I don't like just shutting the PC (linux) down by turning off power so hooked a button up on the top of the cabinet and ACPI on the PC so tapping it will cause the PC to perform a correct linux halt/shutdown..
Some pics, ohh and I used a camera rather than my phone this time...
I think I may have voided the warranty?? ;-)
