Well here are a few pictures.
* the 1024 k max photo file size makes life real hard when posting, unless u r one of the chosen few (lucky moderators) who can post bigger pictures.
Beaky (andrew) and V8racefan (Leon) came over and over a few bourban & cokes, plus the beer, we shopped the machine in a 3 hour marathon with 3 x sets of hands going flat out. There is some crazing of the inserts because the machine has sat in the sun near a window i guess and its already 20 yrs old, but i will deal with that on the redecall and full resto job next.
The result is all new globes, rubbers and a shiny shiny game. The pictures i have posted dont do the shine justice cause of the flash.
Mark C sells a product called Mills Wax on his pinballspareparts.com website and the product works a treat.
I must admit, i thoroughly clean EVERYTHING with baby wipes, then i used the MILLS WAX i buy from mark.
I feel the combination of baby wipes followed by MILLS WAX leaves NOVUS for dead, but thats just my opinion.
WE FINALLY STARTING PLAYING A FEW GAMES AT AROUND 11.30 PM.
Leon (V8racefan) kicked Beakys (Andrew's) butt on the first game, with me coming a distant 3rd.
Leon has never played a BLACK KNIGHT 2000 ever, so he did real well beating Andrew who has played more games on a BK than I have had hot breakfasts.
WE wont discuss the next game, Andrew flogged us both BAD.
A good night, a GREAT PINBALL MACHINE. BLACK KNIGHT 2000 has the Best lightshow n music of any pin i have played so far. A real challenging game.
A killer lower playfield, a fun top playfield. Just a great fun game.
Thanks to Beaky and V8racefan for all ya help.
