el_patto Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 What did you do to get those legs and base looking good? Were they easy to come off and on? I have a Taito and LAI cocktail I would like to tidy up. I bought the internals from Gamedude and now I am just looking in to wiring it all up. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xygt Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 All that chromed for $80? I've been quoted more for less! Must live in the wrong state... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOTR4U Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 All that chromed for $80? I've been quoted more for less! Must live in the wrong state... It was first quoted for $20 bucks, then I added the large pinball plate you will see in the pic. Then it went to $30 odd and the went to $80 cos I requested to have the button boltes high polished which takes around 1 to 2 mins alone. that was probably 40 mins worth of buffing. I am going to take some old pinball legs and see if they will re chrome a whole bunch for $50 odd? can't hurt to ask ROFL ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOTR4U Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 (edited) So I'm guessing that means it's for sale then too :D I'm sure it will be immaculate! :) LOL probably :lol It as immaculate as I could make it I can assure you. At times I have given up on things..... cant find this, can't find that, wrong size, shops dont sell that size, shop doesn't know what the fuck I am talking about, customize this that etc etc. It doesn't look like much work, and it probably isn't if everthing is available to you (dam no dolorean to go back to Japan and buy bolts or this and that), but it was a lot of work. :cry Here it is finished...

I have more prints which I planned to chuck on ebay to get back some costs. Very nice mate! About time you used that 48 in 1 ;) Was the laminate on the sides replaced at all, or was it perfect already? I need to repair mine, and looking for ideas on what to do.
