Now that's funny.
My grand children do the same sometimes, just to nag me.

WOW! I'm impressed, nice, well preserved piece of history.

It's not fear, it's respect. Not all chemicals are the same. That's why we have safety data sheets. When you know what's in a product you can take precautions. This product, you don't know what's in it, and more importantly, the vendor is refusing to tell you. I work in construction, and this attit...

:FP: Come on, let's not go crazy..... My cousin died of a disease caused by working on motorcycles all of his life, more specificly engine oil, he worked 40 years 5 days a week, now would another person working with his bare hands with engine oil only once or twice a year get cancer? the chances ar...

It won't go through gloves if it's only a few seconds, it needs more time than that to chemically go through........ There are many rust removing chemicals used in industrial processes that can penetrate through latex or nitrile gloves in seconds, and even a couple of drops can absorb through your ...

Exact correct weight and size, yes.
Chrome has a much smoother surface, so, better for the playfield for sure.
They say you can't use them in a game that has magnets, but I've been using them in TZ for 2 years now and have'nt had any problems yet.

I think I did'nt post this here, I was keepig in my Ebay watchlist a listing for 100 Ninja chrome balls at 150$ USD plus 29$ USD shipping for the last year and a half now and wanted to purchase them eventually, but, shipping will go up eventually, I was thinking to myself, well, not only did shippin...

I was working on a repair 3 days ago and shorted the flasher bulb circuit on the slingshot coil and blew every flasher bulb on my SWEP1 PF, so I start looking for different options, found them really expensive pretty much everywhere, and where they were'nt too expensive, shipping killed the deal. an...

Yes great game, I've owned one about 10 years ago, maybe it's this specific game in question? Cait001 could maybe answer this question, I had sold it to her but I don't know who bought it from her and so on...... I can't beleive how much the market is saturated with plenty of new games in the past ...

Since we don't know what acid is used in the formula; have you seen any etching effects on aluminum, brass, chrome, stainless, steel...? Nope, reason is simple, it's not an acid, it reacts with ferrous metals only, does'nt do anything with other metals, so, chrome, stainless steel= works great but ...

I would think so that it needs a neutraliser and that neutraliser is water, you rince the peice of metal with water afterwrds. I'm using it right now as a matter of fact, I'm removing rust from a moped muffler, the other picture is the product itself that I bought 2 years ago, I still have plenty fo...

No, I messaged the guy and never got an answer from him. I wear gloves for the rare times I use it and even with gloves, it is'nt really worth talking about it since I only have contact with the liquid a few seconds before passing it under water. It won't go through gloves if it's only a few seconds...

Hi everyone. I used Evapo-rust for over 10 years for removing rust from metal parts on pins and mopeds but now I found something that works better than Evaporust and is cheaper as well. The best price I found for Evaporust, which, by the way is no longer available in the province of Quebec for now ...

Yes, lots of times, but not as fun as working on it......

No interrest what so ever, so, I changed my mind, I'm still having lots of fun working on it, restoring it and upgrading it even if I've been doing exactly that for the past 2 years that I've owned it, so I decided to keep it for now.

Pick up only, this game is too much of a beauty to let go to a shipping company. One of a kind kit in many ways here, I hope I won't forget anything but here it goes: RFM has a clearcoated playfield with 8 coats of automotive clear, works 100%, flppers are strong, all LED's throughout the playfield,...

He's asking USD on the Kijiji add, so that will be 1,35$ CAD or 6.75$ CAD.
Be aware......

OK, I found a link between the 3 switches that were causing me trouble, there was the 2 magnet optos and the upper lock switch (Robots) that went crazy just before they went out each time and on switch edge test, switch 85 would keep activating for no reason, I was in another room and "the game...

My problem was'nt loose wires, neither cracked solder joints on the transistors (or anything else) because I reflowed every solder joints on that board and I still get the same problem after playing many games. This problem is starting to give me a real head aches, it must be something that gets hot...

The game started acting up again about the magnet optos just like it did before, I removed the SW10 P.C.B. board and reflowed the solder joints at each end of those giant green transistors and played a few hours with TZ and no more problems.
In other words, the real problem was this.......

Repaired an opto problem and installeda a complete Cliffy protector set on my TZ I had sitting on my table for about a month or 2.
Does it mean that tomorow will be too late for other posts?

Hey everyone. I had a magnet opto problem that I resolved but wanted to post for those who might encounter a similar problem eventually. At first I though it was the flipper opto boards that were causing the problem, a few guys on Pinside chimed in to help and I appreciate it but found the problem m...

WOW! Interresting project.
Please keep us posted and please post pictures once you're done, can't wait to see what you come up with.

What's your project idea ?
Just curious.
I like to know what others do with theae pinball parts as well.
