Prick or not, It's spelled "Angels", dammit! I mean it's right there in the middle of the backglass in inch-high letters! COME ON!!!

The proper authorities have been contacted.

Yeah, that's what it's going to have to be I'm afraid. I'm just disturbed by the fact that I don't have a nice hydraulic press to really bond the two together - and that there will be an even number of plys. (say 5 +7, leaving a vulnerable glue joint at the midsection - there's a reason plywood...

Yeah, that's the trouble.. it really does measure out to just an rch under 7/8 in the spots where the water didn't get to. And it's flush with the sides on the bottom. I think it was: 1) probably ordered specifically in a large run by Taito, 2) manufactured overseas (hence the 22mm standard...

You know, I still haven't bought a pin - though I have removed a couch from the apartment. I sawed it in half so I could do it without bothering my friends. It worked out pretty well. I'd hate to do that to a pinball machine though. My latest plan is to build one in-situ and let the landlord...

Well, sorta. I'm thinking of applying some new side art, and then trying to unload this thing - is it worth the trouble? Long story short, I lost storage. My buddy who runs a bar suggested I leave it at his place for a while and just collect the quarters - I get free rent on pin storage and a...

Open the thingy bay doors, HAL.

I use plastic numbers and dymo tape on a felt board mounted on a game-specific wooden plaque.

oh you know I'm in, honkies. might even be tailgating on the rooftop, then smuggling my sloppy food in to eat while playing the cocktails.

I want an all red billiard room with a giant stuffed camel and a bathtub shaped like a clam.

I tried using an Elmo, but he just sat there and giggled at me and was of no use at all.

Thanks for the thoughtful replies. It could probably fit if I took the head and the legs off, and should be a snap with a dolly... I just wonder about the sanity of it all. Having heard my brother's tales of hauling an arcade upright up his stairs gives me pause. I was looking at a Close...
