I have the tighter tolerance bushings and new yellow bats that I think will go well, so will probably do all that with a rebuild.

Hey dude, I'm using the PBL kit on the Jaws. I usually go with the speaker light kits because I think he defuses the light better but I was impatient so I went with the PBL one. I think the stern speaker light kit for jaws will be aweosme since it's integrated with the lighting of the game.

I do not like the feel of a mini flipper. That was the first time I’ve used one as I’m newer to pinball. Almost seems like a gimmick because it lacks a lot of power. But then again I’ve only played on location and machines on location are never as good as what it feels like at my home. Most machines I play on location are beat up pretty bad, and not usually a good experience.
@RetroRalphАй бұрын
Hmmmm... you could be on to something with the machine being beat up. I don't notice a power issue from the mini flipper so it could just need adjusting. You can adjust the power of the flippers in the software. Or I guess it's possible if it has a ton of plays on it that the flipper needs to be rebuilt, not sure. Maybe see if another location near you has a JAWS to compare. Check out pinballmap.com and see if there's another place to play. Thanks so much for watching man!

So I was just looking to possibly save ya a little cash since you keep "making $10,000 mistakes" 😅😅🤣😂 ...I bet it was the powdercoating that was making it hard to screw in your leg levelers. We're the threads powdercoated or just a bad fit? If it's a bad fit, there's another reason to just get the factory stuff powdercoated.

I want to get a job at Stern just to fix that damn squelch on reprogramming reboots. I have 2 mini heart attacks on every software update, even when I know the 2nd one is coming... I saw that powder coated Jaws kit at PBL a month or 2 ago. I noticed it was out of stock now, also. I'm guessing someone at PBL wanted to do this and saw it as an opportunity to do a big batch, since I hear its more efficient to do a large batch powder coating over small batches as you can't mix colors in the oven. Fill that oven up! You must have gotten the last one they had from that run. I forgot what they charged for the kit. Is that something you are comfortable sharing? I was considering buying unpainted parts ($100 lockdown bar, $60 sides, $50 hinges, $60 legs) and doing a powder coating run, but it was probably in the $600+ area all said and done. I could see a market for kits like Jaws in colors that fit will with popular machines. I'm not sure what color I'd go with on my Foo Fighters, as there is already a ton of red. If they didn't tape off the threaded portions of the legs when coating, some paint may have gotten in there taking away room for the screw threads to move freely. Could that explain why putting the casters on the coated legs were tougher?
@RetroRalphАй бұрын
The kit was $399.95 so a really good price for what you get IMO. I think the powder coating was inside the threads that the levelers screw into. So it kind of made it difficult to thread them on... two of them were difficult but the other two seemed fine so I'm not sure what exactly happend. Thanks so much for watching brother, it means a lot! Have a great weekend man!
@slinger2112Ай бұрын
@@RetroRalph Yeah. That’s a pretty solid price. The parts themselves are $250+ at PBL, so powder coated versions for a $150 premium is a bargain. You could maybe save a little money redoing your existing parts, but then your game is out of commission. You keep your extra parts to clean up any used games you get in the future, too.
