I decided to start working on my Aztec EM today. I pulled the backbox, playfield and the main board in the bottom of the cab out so I can start cleaning all the switch contacts etc.
After looking at the playfiled and how much of a pain it could be to work on, I decided I need a playfiled rotisserie.
It seems the most cost effective way is to build my own. I found a few online that use 2x4's and some pipe flanges and unions and that seems ok I guess.
Then I found this http://www.flickr.com/photos/mike217/sets/72157616252440925/show/
I think this would work great, in his RGP post he says it cost him around $82 or so, well today I went and bought all the parts and it came to $163.00. I guess steel went up a bit since 2009 when he built his.
I tinkered with the plan and I can make a tabletop version that I think would be better for me but it's still $110. Maybe I'm just cheap, but this seems like too much cash considering at this point I have 1 machine I'll need it for, but I'm sure I'll need it in the future.
Any ideas for a nice more cost effective rotisserie? - Barry
