Yes agree lots of good info there. 
Have dealt with Ed a few times now and have always found him to be very helpful.

I've followed some of Ed's projects over the years and found his techniques interesting. Like the pieces of Lego to form straight lines. Not something I'd heard of before. He seems to try different techniques like his clearcoating effort on his Flash. I marveled at his CPU Board Tester - That was amazing !

The hobby needs more people like Ed !

I think he may have I bit more 'grey matter' than most of us. The boys at NASA sometimes need to think outside the square, so it wouldn't surprise me on some of his techniques and methods.

I'm with you I'd love a new playfield and backglass for my machine.  Once these become available I'll be doing a full restro.

Before CPR said they were going to do a rerun of playfields i manage to get a nos one and a set of nos plastic ,nos main ramp and a stencil kit. Lucky i got two machines, as cant wait to compare them when finish, as one will have nos parts and one will be repco parts.

Great game, i put a lot of coins in her in my younger days.
