RTBB again, for a micro switch with a long actuator. A bit of a homemade effort on the switch mounting bracket/harness.
I made the spinner out of an old coat hanger and after many, many attempts/coat hangers, managed to get a spinner working. Thanks to Ed’s link for measurements.  http://www.edcheung.com/dropbox/ss_wire.jpg Sorry forgot to take a pic of my final spinner.
After a few switch/contact adjustments the playfield powered up fine and is now fully operational.

The bulls eye targets need to be touched up, but I just couldn’t wait any longer to get back to having a few games under my belt. With the new flipper coils and rubbers, the ball fly’s at an amazing rate.
Next step is to completely strip the cabinet and re-stencil. As the weather is a bit cool at the moment, I’ll leave it alone for a while and get back to getting the Gottlieb up and running.
The back glass has some ‘Leopard spots’, so when the weather picks up, I’m hoping arrest with triple thick.
