Crack on with finishing the backbox and then hopefully pick the main cab up off @steve brum at 8 bit flip and she should be good for a run out to NERG in July !!! @Big Phil

Cheers Kev
 
Haha!!! thanks guys. Will be a good while before I attempt one of these again. Gotta get it done as selling house and down sizing, so mega complex now, and no idea where the pins are gonna go, so need this bad boy back in one piece at least asap

Cheers Kev
 
Well done Kev, an amazing transformation. I'm sure many machines have been scrapped in far better condition than this one was!
 
Sorry begging again!!!! :(

So, could now do with a temporary wide bodied cab, any condition, until I get the one I am waiting for (was going to be at 8bitflip but it isn't ready yet). I just want another cab to put the finished playfield in with the glass to protect it whilst it goes into storage while I move house. Anything anyone has would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers in advance

kev

PS I have stuck this in the wanted ads as well
 
Been doing the cab metal work over the weekend but that's about it now from me until I get a cabinet, so I will be going quiet for a while(bet you're all pleased about that!!) and I'm moving house so gonna be chaos!!!

Cheers Kev

Hi Kev,

Have you got any further with this? Or is it still in storage?

Dunc
Hi Dunc,

No still sat in storage (as are all of my pins) at the moment since the house move. I have to build a large workshop and pin room(30sq M), before I can continue, but I think as autumn is approaching, and this will essentially be an outdoor shed, it may be spring before I get a start on this :-(

Cheers

Just a quick update peeps - Almost ready to begin work on building 1 of my 2 pinshacks. 1 is going to be a workshop and the other a games room. Was going to be one large shed but the council poo poo'd that. I have to build 2 sheds less then 15sqm each, then I have can have them as close to the fences and to each other as I want !!!! Crazy rules.

I can't build one 30sqm shed, as it is considered a fire risk, but if I build 2, as long as there is a 30mm gap between the two sheds then it's fine - LUDICROUS!!!!!

Anyway I am really missing the resto work and playing my pins so cant wait to get cracked on with this. I will start a new log for the sheds if anyone is interested.

Watch this space!!

Cheers

Kev
 
Cool guys - will do a log and @Jsyjay make sure you do as well - share the knowledge

Mine will be a little different as the wrokshop shed is also going to have a sauna in it for relaxtion after pin resto work ;)

Cheers

With a 30mm gap, I'm sure you can come up with some ingenious way of linking the the two sheds via double doors, say? Close em, 2 sheds. Open em, 1 shed. ;)

And yes, shed logs (shed porn) are all the rage these days. Do it! :D
