OK, just to prove this is still ticking along.... I really haven't done anything for a few months, been too busy with other projects and family, but got a bit inspired yesterday to give it a bit more attention.
Stripped pop bumper bodies from NBA FB, cleaned, and put pretty much all new components in them
When i went to install them, the holes in the playfield were a tiny bit too small to fit the pop bases, so after a bit of filing the edges of the hole, they all fitted
Installed the mechanisms
I've also installed the two ball gates, divertor and a few more posts, slingshot assemblies and the like.
Its amazing how you think you have everything ordered/planned but still come across heaps of small things I missed. When trying to build the catapult assembly, i realised i haven't got the pin that connects the linkages together - things like that really slow everything up. Also can't find the 10 opto board i put aside somewhere 'safe' for this project!!!
Hope to get a bit more done this week after work
