Royal mail are bloody useless... Still waiting on stuff.

As a result I focused my efforts on preparing the plastics.

Many thanks again @russdx1 for the err long term loan of your rivet press 😅 it's getting a lot of use at least!

P.s. I hate doing rivets

Nah plastics I had for weeks.

I'm waiting on 4 parcels.

Ant sent the VUKs with DX on a 24 Xpress and they say Friday for delivery 😖

Royal mail have 2 of my parcels which are stuck in delivery depots. I called today as I paid customs on them last week and they said it's odd that there just stuck...

Another is on royal tracked 24 and 3 days on I'm still waiting. Bloody nightmare honestly.
 
All stuff finally arrived!

Dropped off all sorts to the powder coaters.

Will update shop logs accordingly.
 
Unfortunately it won’t take long before they are showing ball trails.
It’s just the joys of pinball ownership.
 
Back on Addams again.

BSD needs its Power Driver board repaired and awaiting shipment of comets.

VUK's now installed... again the bloody dimples don't line up to jack. I know people like CPR playfields but bloody hell :/

Will likely attempt migration of the harness tonight, wish me luck.
 
Ok the harness is over. Unorthodox but I've gone coils, then switched then GI.

Most of the Coils are now in place and loose fit the switches.

Stopped for now as tired.

First time I've seen the top side of the old Addams in ages. Dear God it was a wreck.

Switched the red targets, I hate soldering daisy chain targets, especially this many. Hopefully I did it all right 😖.

Switched out the white target

Finished up the switch harness.

It may not be zinc plated or powder coated but hey it's clean.

Next up I gotta do the pop bumpers, then it's onto the GI harness.
 
Ok pop bumpers wires done, had to finalize the tunnel, alignment was a nightmare. Dimples were again next to useless.

Now I just need to place and fit the GI.
Finish the pops and it's ready to go inside the cab.

Ok everything bottom side is in.

Bloody hell this is a packed game. There's barely a bit of free wood on the playfield.

Mind-boggling just to look at, can’t imagine how intricate and challenging it must be to take apart and re-assemble. Kudos good sir! Be glorious when you can finally kick-back, experience the fruits of your labours and play it.

Thx mate. Yeah it's coming a long now. Was a bit intimidating seeing a bare playfield and putting everything back together.

Tomorrow I give the playfield another go over before flipping it and installing the lane guides.
 
Ok so just gotta put on the hooks and backboard onto the playfield and it's ready to go in.
