John, Sure sounds like a diode in your bridge is blown and you're only getting half-wave rectification out of it. If you've cleaned and tweaked all of the...
I'm very partial to the early 60's Gottlieb Classics, Slick Chick, GiGI, Square Head and particularly Majorettes (All games with unique and intriguing bumper...
Al, Thanks for the help. I thought the ball should be flying around in those pop bumpers. I'll get a new bridge rectifier and see if that speeds things up. I...
Hi John, Please keep me posted on how well it turns out and your opinion of the machine. I have a Honey dismantled in the garage, I'm still looking for a...
Howdy, My favorites are the 4-player pins (Spin Wheel, Happy Clown, Liberty Belle, Masquerade, etc). My buddy John and I have 50% of the 4- players made in...
Mark, Will do - I'd be glad to scan my BG for you if you'd like. It is in really good shape except for a lot of spotting in the girl's face in the center. I...
ive said it once, i'll say it again. honey is a keeper. kickouts, drop targets, lots of rollovers , 5 pop bumpers, a gate, center drop target reveals a...
Hi John, Thank you very much! Yes, I will take you up on the offer, but it may not be until this fall. I have 3 pins to do first. But this is on my HoneyDo...
... I also own a Gottlieb New York, Larry. Got it in--where else--New York just outside of NYC. Long ago I started trying to find one of every regular...
John, IMHO Since shipping charges with exceed the cost of the part, it's hard to compete with an order that's already going out. Enjoy your game! AL ...
Hi Brian, Ah, Mr. Zipper Flipper! :-) How are you! Good to see you hanging around. I'll bet you do have a complete collection of Zipper Flipper games. What...
After listening to Topcast #38 with Michael Sands I went over to the Sands Museum site (www.sandsmuseum.com) and found this in the restoring a Gottlieb...
Hmm a flamable liquid on a electrical wire. Fuel + Spark = Fire! Think about it. Not too bright I bought a Bally Hocus Pocus years ago with fire damage...
Yes I agree, for a machine that plugged in and then turned on it's a crappy idea. Clay proved it in one of his TOP videos. But like I said, lets assume that...
Well I enjoyed reading that others have used Carb and brake cleaners, I would not have admitted it before but I have used both and have had very good luck...
... In 40 years of fixing pins never seen a transformer go bad--guess i have been luckey---your board will only fire up on the table if you have most if not...
I just shopped a Honey that I got as part of a package deal. I never had it level or really played it until I took it to a show last weekend. I was surprised...
Too bad Mean Green has water in it. I bet it would probably clean the wiring quite well. There are some simple rules to using volatile substances to clean...

There was a game at the Super Auctions last week in Dallas that had the cabinet all white. It don't surprise me one bit anymore. You can tell when someone is...
... the cabinet all white. It don't surprise me one bit anymore. You can tell when someone is NOT a pin head! Yeah, it's a shame too. Original cabinet designs...
... just in case. That reminds me of a guy who used to restore old jukeboxes. He did some fine resto projects, but he worked in a poorly ventilated warehouse....
A really cool looking old arcade piece, Clay....I guess maybe this was an early version of Ski-Ball.....Or was Ski-ball ahead of this game? I have no idea but...
Another oldie but goodie..I can't even find one gun game and you have tons of them! NOT FAIR! Haha!.....Love the chics on this BG... Larry cfhatprovidedotnet...
I'm not having much luck in solving what I believe to be a problem....but then again, maybe the game IS playing correctly. Could someone verifiy the following...
