Looking good Daniel. Are you using spray cans or a compressor for your painting ?

[ddstoys]

Ive used compressor for the undercoat.   but spray cans for the color.

Great work.

Quite a project.

How did it turn out?

Was anything ever worked out for the section of wear by the right slingshot?

The machine has not progressed from this stage I really must get my playfield back and finish this one off. 

  Thanks for the reminder lol

Hi Daniel,  .... Just want to encourage you to keep at it. .... The Kings & Queens I built from just a playfield took me over 2 years to complete. As you may recall, you helped me more than a few times with different parts I was after. I remember that there were many times when I thought I was never going to get the job done but ..... 2 years only takes 2 years to pass and eventually I did finish the job. I know that you've done great work in the past, and I'm sure that this one will get done too. Patience is hard for us all, as we are all probably a bit impatient at heart. I haven't been doing any pinballs for about a year. ... I have my house to paint! I hope you are in good health. Kind regards, Mark

Great post Mark - Even little bit of encouragement helps. My Pro Football took be almost 4 years to finish. But it was well worth the effort - same a Kings and Queens
