You are the absolute best pinball videos on you tube. Ron you are an absolute asset to this hobby. Thank you sir.
Don't sell yourself short, you do a great job touching up these PFs. Not everyone can do it :). Can't wait for the next video!
He does great work! Been watching him paint pf's for a few years and i still wont touch them, lol
@@Ajaxaxxess same here, the paint PF videos are Mac favorites.
Love watching you bring this beauty back to life!!! Thank you for sharing your work!!!
Another thumbs up ... (comment for the youtube algorithm ) Keep pumping out the vids, and we'll keep watching em =) Have a great weekend !
It's amazing how many wire bundles go through the playfield from top to underneath. You're a true artist Ron, keep up the great work! This great machine is looking better and better.
There are MANY wire looms that go underneath to the top side of the playfield. I bought a Pin-Bot in 2019 for $700 that was about to be junked if I didn't save it. It was a pain in the derriere, but it took 2 years to finish it. It is a great players machine with a long life ahead of it.
Hello from Phoenix Arizona!🔥
@@pinball541 Howdy from Texas! Pin-Bot was indeed an awesome machine. Great that you were able to save that one!
I was just thinking how it seems like its been forever since seeing a new video and then I realized its not December anymore! Got spoiled on having a new video every day.
Playfield rework is an art and you have it nailed!
Mechanics, electronic engineer, carpenters, artist, painter… repairing pinballs is an art. You’re doing it well. I’m amazed every time. Keep up the good work guys and thanks’ for sharing it on TH-cam.
It’s so dark at the arcade that has this game that I’ve never noticed all the writing “joy” “passion”, “jealous heart” and bionic development stuff. Really awesome and you do an amazing job on the games I’ve seen you fix including this one. Thanks for the video
Wow, that playfield was rougher looking up close than I thought! I was thinking you were mainly going to fix mechanicals, but there was more artwork fixin’ required. Nice work Ron! This is gonna look great!
I'm no pinball machine expert, but I am a guy who likes lights and things to be original. I'm a fan of how you can see the incandescent bulbs smoothly come on and off on this machine, unlike the sharp transition of LEDs. I do like LEDs too, but it seems like many times they look out of place in old machines, whether it be car lighting (taillights/turn signals) or carnival rides. I'm also a fan of keeping machines original so that they're sort of time machines in their own way. You get to see and feel how they really were. The incandescent warm white color also seems to be difficult to match exactly. On the other hand, restomod-type stuff is also great, and it's not mine so I don't get a vote haha. Anyway, y'all's channel is very cool and I hope the pinball machine looks great with the new LEDs!
You're getting better with every one of them. Using all of these techniques you've picked up along the way. No doubt in my mind, this one will be no exception.
No doubt, Flight 2000 was the best restoration Ron has done to date!
I'm going to play this for the first time in 3 years soon! -- A.T.
Ron. Some of( if not the ) best work I've seen by you. . and I was impressed with your flight 2000... Good stuff
We have no doubt you will pull it off and it will look terrific! Just remember how crappy that Flight 2000 was and it turned out Fantastic!
Your video’s are very interesting....and it’s definitely looking better.
Anyone who’s watched a few of your videos will know ….. You bet you can get this back in shape. … it’s like watching a show where they leave it at a really critical, important time, so you just have to tune in to see what happens next …. can’t wait. Thanks for sharing your awesome skills.
It’s gonna look amazing !
You got this.
You have a wonderful way with words. I just love to watch you work. Keep it up guys.
Excellent update Ron! Glad to see the bride feeling more like a woman. Just don't let Pin-Bot know Rudy is stalking his bride in the background. That would definitely be a Funhouse! 😱
Hello from Phoenix Arizona!🔥
Nice work once again!
I know it's going to be great. I've binge watched enough of your videos not to doubt you. Also, I've learned so much! And did I glimpse a Funhouse in the background? I feel more great content in the future!
I've seen your work and honestly you do fantastic at touching things up!
Don't know if it would be worth it for you but Magic Eraser is just brand name Melamine foam insulation. You can buy big sheets of the insulation and just cut it up into your own magic eraser sponges. Saves a bit of money if you got a good pair of shears or a sharp knife and you go through a lot of magic erasers.
I am enjoying watching your series, thanks for posting.
I don't doubt your work. But if it were me, I would've replaced the entire playfield with either a brand new repro or an overlay for this game. Can't wait to see the finished product
Thanks for filming these for us!
I was impressed with your correcting the curved line by hand! We have faith it will be amazing :D
Hell yes! You da man!
Looking forward to seeing what you do with this one with the LED's. I usually dislike LED's in classic Pinball machines, but I saw a video on blackrosemf channel that had a Bride of Pinbot with Cointaker LED's installed and it looked freaking awesome.
You know that LED's are switching on and off very fast, like a spark.
If you wanna have some afterglow on the LED you can add an electrolytic capacitor over the supply wires to the LED.
Trial and error would find what you like best, selecting the capacitor value in mF (microFarads).
I'd start with a value of 100mF, having 47mF, 220mF, 470mF ready as optional values.
The voltage rating of the capacitor should be at least 10% higher than your supply voltage.
The capacitor would be a bit harsh load on the lamp driver (transistor or relay). This can be remedied by adding a 10-12 ohm resistor (1/4watt) in series with the capacitor.
The effective load will then act exactly like an incandecent bulb.
i didnt even know this was a thing until today, i'm genuinely intrigued. keep up the good work, i'm excited for the next one!
Cool video. That was a nice start to Her make-up. 👍😀
First! The text decals look pretty decent. But a paint brush for the clear coat? Come on, now. Looking forward to seeing how you correct this.
Come on people!🤭
I love this game. Some day I will have one. Missed out with a low bid a few months ago. Ahhhhhh. It's on the list. 😀
levels gerri..... like in Seinfeld‼️®™️
You pulled off fixing the Stern Flight 2000 and this system is near perfect in comparison, so I think you'll be fine.
Look forward to part 2…..cheers
It's need lot of pait job but you will make just fine I now that👍😎
I want to buy one of these bopb machines sooo bad
Be nice if there had kits where you can strip the wood complexly back to bare wood and fill in any groves then have a complete overlay that you could lightly glue or stick down with full text everything
For a WPC game this has lots of wear and has had a rough life... much could of been avoided with cheap maintenance. I can't belive the clear with a paintbrush but I've actually seen some EM tiles at Silverball museum that look like they were cleared with a paintbrush.
Be careful where you rub on that thing. Thanks for the video...
😱
Cool
Just found your channel and I love it! Been binging the mid machines series.
Question: would the graphics have originally been screen printed on? How was the play surface originally colorized from the factory? Thanks!!!
For me if I owned this machine is do a full restore its a collector's item
I love this first song when you was stripping the playfeild lol
I would have drawn them BIGGER hehe
hi Ron, so i think i'm ready to get my first pinball machine, going for an early 70's em. what do i need to do to move it? from your videos i know, leg bolts, head bolts and jones plugs in the back box. is there anything else to worry about like the score reels?
Will there be a Simpsons repair video?
What tricks do you use to remember where everything you take off goes?
Ron can watch the video when it's time to rebuild the bride, plus he put the parts where they go underneath the machine!
The 70’s porn music was a nice touch lol.
Would using a squeegee be a better way to apply clear coat where you don't notice it?
looks like Monopoly board colors‼️®™️
Hi Ron!
As always, amazing work on this machine...I am curious about one thing though (since you'l be adding LEDs before it's all done);
Are you (or more to the point, your client) aware of the 'Version 2.0' upgrade kit that's available for this machine?
I would think that it would make a spectacular addition, given the work you're putting into this project.
But then again... It's not my machine... ;-)
Version 2.0 in my opinion is not a upgrade, I always liked the original. Also V2.0 does not have the rotating faces.
@@pinball541
I thought that V 2.0 had both the orriginal and the new game play as part of the upgrade.....??
@@jayytee8062- I am pretty sure the upgrade kit keeps the rotating heads. I was talking about the actual Dutch pinball BOP 2.0, which only has one static head. That was the best part of the original Williams BOP machine.
Hello from Phoenix Arizona!🔥
@@pinball541
Well Hello from Melbourne Australia haha
@@jayytee8062- Also, my 2008 Pontiac G8 (Holden Commodore) wants me to say hi to its homeland.👍
Fantastic work as always!
How would you prevent this kind of wear on a machine? My dad has a "Mustang" (cowboy theme not the car) Pinball machine and would like to preserve it.
Thanks!
Hmm .. Was “bot” (meaning robot) coined (no pun intended) THAT long ago?
Hi Ron - your web page doesn't allow links to the Amazon products on my viewing......maybe fix.
Yodelayheehoo
Little old lady who?
They screwed up the under wire of her bra.
Never occurred to me like that! OUCH!😱
nothing worse than having to re-work somebody's work‼️‼️‼️‼️®™️ 🤬🤬🤬
