Well I take my hat off to this guy in the states on his Fathom restoarion. What an absolutely lovely job

I'm now tempted to get all my under playfield items powered coated on my Elektra @chris b, how about that electric blue

Been following this as I'm planning on doing mine when the new CPR playfields drop The cab is cool but not for me, I'm a fan of the original look, but the powder coating is awesome and something I'll be looking into Really like the chromed (or highly polished) door, rails etc. It's one lovely looking Fathom

I would love to have a fathom like this though, one of the only few games that would get me to part with my Elektra

The coin door on its own is some kind of masterpiece! Having restored ALOT of games in my time, i know how many hours must have gone into this restoration. Its truly the most amazing thing i've seen for quite some time

Wow!... And I thought our fathom was tidy!... This one is awesome...agree with Ron about the cab art. But having said that its stunning....did not know cpr were doing another playfield run.. I am a fan of Electra too but do not remember seeing a working one since 1985

I completed a major restoration on an Elektra last year and was at NLP last year. Thread on the restoration here. Looking to possibly change it for a fathom, ebd, or fireball 2
