I haven't given up - admittedly haven't made a lot of progress on the SS in the last few weeks. Been saving up to order the parts I need to get moving. Cab decals are here, upgraded speakers are on order, most of the pieces I need to finish the playfield out are on order etc.

I did learn one interesting things - leaf switches seem to clean up a lot easier in a tumbler with walnut media! The results are as good as hand polishing, perhaps better, and it only takes about 24 hours. SS had a lot of them, 11 to be exact - and they all cleaned up like new!
