Thank you all for your kind words, looking forward to having another workshop meet. There is heaps more pins to open and look at.
That's the reward - opening each machine and looking through each of them. I have a speadsheet of each of my games and I order parts now that the $ is good and parts are readily available. My container was a little different as I targeted collector EMs and SS titles (with a few DMDs). Most EMs were FAR better than I initially thought. The idea is to ENJOY yourself - and I often drive down to my storage building and simply look at all the machines. I lose hours down there just LOOKING and examining each machine. Soon I will have some resto threads on some of the rarer EMs, and some of them look like they have never been played. I "tip my hat off" to anyone that brings in containers - It is risky and hard work. But as you have found out, there are MANY good people out there to help out. If you ever need a hand - just ask !
