Very nice work indeed.  Looking forward to seeing this finished.

Are you planning to go the wet or dry method for decals?

Nice.

At least you'll have a coin door filler left over from your handy wood work too!.

Outstanding !

Using the "wet" method - Do you apply a sealer or clear coat to the bare wood ?

Yeah nino theres a guide at http://www.robertwinter.com/pinball/restorations/cc/cabinet/index.html only difference is i use a water based varnish instead since it has a much quicker drying time and easier cleanup.

Nice work.

Are you doing the smaller one which sits on top of the backbox too?

Mines gone (worn right out).  AFAIK on all WMS WPC games ontop of the back box was the smaller sticker with s/n on it - identical to those on the driver board and CPU.  If all yours are missing I'll remove one and scan for you.
