NGG almost done
« on: February 10, 2025, 08:19:35 PM »
Bought my NGG from Clark in Aug 2022, collected a bunch of parts and tore it down in Dec of 2023.

What was done (so far):
  • New playfield
  • New cab decals
  • New plastics
  • New coin door
  • New lockdown bar/receiver
  • New legs
  • New gophers (Clark did these)
  • New coil wrappers
  • Metal leg (cabinet) protectors and leg plates
  • Color DMD
  • Upgraded speakers & speaker lights
  • Bunch of stuff I forgot  :P
Cabinet was repaired with epoxy, Bondo (no more than 1/16" thick) and spot putty. Oil based paint with HVLP gun. Decals installed dry. Sanded instead of cut decals like High End Pins does in his videos. This is absolutely the way to do decals, came out incredible. Hope to be playing in a week or 2. Will post better pics when done. ;D

Been traveling so progress is slow, but almost done. Down to a couple of switch and light issues.
