Just as I got back in a groove on my project.. work dropped an atom bomb on my week! As of tonight, I've put in over 40 hours. Too bad I'm salaried! But, I've got the weekend off :)

Started out by cleaning off the backboard, and applying my TC decal



You can't see, but I sanded the backside clean, and thoroughly cleaned the front, then wiped down with alcohol so the decal would adhere better. I also stuck in 4 new t-nuts.

Decal installed, trimmed up, and deadheads located in their proper location to verify the flames are in the right spot.



Lots of detail trimming for slots for ramps to sit in, slots for gates to sit in, spots for claws to sit, etc. I did cut the decal trying to remove the backing, but the spot should be well-hidden once the ramp is installed.

Backboard installed. So are the new hand-made oak playfield stiffeners, and the pop bumper studs and topside parts.



This game is gonna be a blast when it's done.



How I wish my rotisserie were done!
