Somewhat confusingly, that wood panel is (or used to be) known as the 'backbox insert'.

 

[Arv]

Not as hard as it looks is it?

 

[Pudsey pinball]

Still loads to do ,this was very very close to being a parts machine

 

[Arv]

Parts machine sacrilege, we can rebuild you. Just look at the six million dollar man!

 

[Pudsey pinball]

here no machine is left behind!

 

[replicas]

Respect Dave.
Another brought back to life and saved from the parts bin.
DFD he can rebuilt them.

 

[Pudsey pinball]

Put pf in to see the good,bad and ugly most stuff works...strip has begun

 

[Moonraker]

Hmm, that's a fair amount of rust and rot. You're doing an excellent job there DFD.

Got to ask though... did your balls look like this...?

 

[Pudsey pinball]

You've got some serious rusty balls there pete The ones in my game have a bit but not too bad,lots of rusty nuts though lol

 

[replicas]

Pete, you need to see a doctor with balls like those.

 

[Sam C]

Were those actually in the machine? That's pretty criminal. Only time I've seen anything like (but nowhere near as bad as) was in the tilt mechanism.

 

[Pudsey pinball]

Oh the horrors we find n see!!!!

Indeed they were. They arrived in ST:TNG#2.

 

[Carl Spiby]

Are they not just musty Maltesers?

 

[Moonraker]

Pete, you need to see a doctor with balls like those.

I did... he said to tumble and add polish 3 times a day!

 

[Pudsey pinball]

I removed this mech to look why it had been gaffer taped together within an inch of its life ,only to find it may req a little weld here n there.
