Hi Brett-yeah the wear on the lanes is where the ball drops from the ramps and there was no mylar-you can buy decals for that area and I'll touch up any other bits.

Thanks guys-yeah nearly 5 days of solid work and probally 6 hrs a day and she's come up a treat. FT is a easy machine to strip down to the playfield I reckon and I really enjoyed doing this one. The Translite was filthy but came up fantastic and all I need now is the decal set which thanks to Marco I got really cheap and she's done and man does it play nice now and really fast $#$. EB your right its a great game and I love the music and animation-I reckon its a keeper.

Peter

P:S-video to come &&

Just recieved my new legs and new Lightning flipper bats-legs are on and one bat is on as it was near impossible to get the old bat off but I did it and without breaking anything @@* I'll put the 2nd one on tommorrow or Friday as I've ran out of time. Also have a new glass trim to go on as the old one was chipped and for $16 why not.
Also recieved the fish decals yesterday so once I figure out how to get the old decals off I'll put them on any tips :D?

I really like your approach to working on this pin Pete. It looks very much like a professional shop job. Of course, once I saw the Nifti in the pictures, I was sold !

Good Stuff Pete - Keep up the good work  ^^^

Some Fishtales machines that havent been played much have the knocker on top of the headbox with the fish etc, and when it bangs the tail etc, it scares the living crap outta you cause it is extremely extremely loud. Almost too too loud.

Have you guys experienced that before and had the crap scared outta ya.?  !@#
