Spent a couple hours cleaning the playfield up, installing some t-nuts, and doing some of the 'through' parts.

Came across a couple of small snags to work through as usual. My new side stiffeners are not drilled, I have to figure out how to align them before fastening them down. Will have to drill new holes. Not a big deal, just have to figure out *where* to drill the holes, since there are none to locate from. But, I'm many steps ahead of where I was with no holes to work from at all! So, I asked the guy who made them for me if he has any insight, he made them using the ones from his game as a template.

This playfield has more clear on it than any I've ever worked on. Posts haven't wanted to fit their holes without reaming them slightly with a sharp bit.

Hopefully I can get the side stiffeners straightened out today, then I could attach the slides and get the pop bumper studs installed as well as the pop bumper parts in place, topside.
