iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 8/13/2016 9:44:12 AM
I'm done with 80 grit on the head but the paper is still good. So I'll use it to sand off the glue on the base until it's no good. Now I'll switch to 120 on the head.

iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 8/16/2016 10:12:26 AM
Got a little problem with the paint. These are the paints Bruce has codes for. Anything else has to be scanned but ink on the decal isn't thick enough to scan. The scanner sees through it and sees white.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 8/16/2016 10:12:26 AM
He's going to mix up a small amount of the one that's the closest and we'll see how close. The actual paint may be a tad different then the chips.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 8/16/2016 10:12:26 AM

Yup. Quite different from the originals. But I will say, the original artwork was a bit different then the paint used to do the cabinets.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 8/16/2016 3:18:01 PM
I'm almost thinking we go with the original color, as long as the rails can be scanned. The other three look like we tried to match and couldn't. Sometimes that looks worse then if you go farther away with the color, like the rails.
iMessage Message sent 8/16/2016 3:20:07 PM
You could be right. I really wish we could match that decal tho!

I'll see what they say. Jeff is doing the scanning. He's Bruce's paint rep. He also uses the shop on the weekend to paint cycle parts. Jeff would be doing the painting.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 8/16/2016 3:25:36 PM
I could also ask if they can spray latex. Maybe Hom Depot could scan the artwork.
iMessage Message sent 8/16/2016 3:26:14 PM
Sounds good - I'm still perplexed why it wouldn't scan in the first place
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 8/16/2016 3:26:16 PM
With Jeffs scanner, the ink wasn't dense enough.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 8/16/2016 3:26:52 PM
Lol. He took one look at it and said it probably wouldn't work. And it didn't.

Well tell Jefd his scanner sucks ??
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 8/16/2016 3:36:42 PM
Trust me, he calls on all the local body shops. They all use his paint. I'm thinking is scanner is TOO good.
iMessage Message sent 8/16/2016 3:43:36 PM
Maybe it's really good, but broken. Either way, I think he needs a new one!

Lol. I'll tell him that.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 8/16/2016 3:49:25 PM
I'm hoping they can spray any kind of paint. Most of what they use now is water base anyway. Even their clear. All body shops are switching to that. They have to.

iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/1/2016 12:43:22 PM
Some adjustments needed. The left side if this new ramp needs to be shaved off. It hangs over the side.
iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 12:47:58 PM
Looking good - that's weird about the ramp - I don't remember how the old one looked
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/1/2016 12:50:57 PM
I had a number of playfield holes that were off. This one for the hex post was the worst.

I run into odd stuff with repro ramps quite often.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/1/2016 12:57:33 PM
I loosened it in the bottom side and simply angled it back. You'd never know if I hadn't said something.
iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 12:58:31 PM
That's funky - was it a playfield issue or a ramp issue?
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/1/2016 12:59:25 PM
Playfield. The hole was too far forward.
iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 12:59:48 PM
Gotcha
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/1/2016 1:01:25 PM
I can drill another in the correct spot and move the post. You'd never see the extra hole.

You also can't tell crap with a pic. LED's don't photograph well.
iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 1:15:24 PM

iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 1:15:58 PM
It certainly adds some pimp
iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 1:18:06 PM
Could probably crank them down with GI ocd installed too
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/1/2016 1:28:48 PM
You can't tell but they are definitely blue. I'm not sure what to think. It would look better if there was a star post on the back side of the sling also lit. That way it would look uniform. Looks odd with just the front lit.
iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 1:30:45 PM
Ok - lets throw a post on the backside to balance it. Then I would say do the posts that are visible.
But stick with blue under clear?
iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 1:34:45 PM
So 4 more on left side, 4 more on right side (which includes converting the rear slings to posts)
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/1/2016 1:34:59 PM

iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 1:46:16 PM
That should make it easier, no? Feed wire up backside of adjustable holes? Or not enough room to feed?

No room on one like this.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/1/2016 1:50:16 PM
These two, I could drill a hole in the playfield under the plastics.
iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 1:51:51 PM
Nah, but go ahead and order 7. I may be able to snip off the plug and squeeze the wires down the backside, then solder the wires to the GI
iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 1:52:48 PM
Adjusting the post to the bottom most position of course
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/1/2016 1:57:26 PM
That's what's under them. I could drill out a tad more of the slot. At an angle from the backside. The slot would look the same in the topside.
iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 1:57:49 PM
Perfect
iMessage Message sent 9/1/2016 1:58:14 PM
And move it to the bottom hole if that helps

Yup.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/1/2016 2:13:27 PM
Next problem. The lights only come with about a 2 lead. Not long enough to reach a lamp. I can buy some of their longer wire extensions and solder those on in place of the short ones.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/1/2016 2:13:27 PM
Id unsolder the short leads. Id then feed the longer leads through the hole and resolder to the light. Then install.

I don't but can just ship some here if you don't have any
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/14/2016 5:25:39 PM
I don't have any. If you're getting some, I'll just put your old glass back in.
iMessage Message sent 9/14/2016 5:25:45 PM
Ok - that works

This one is being fussy - I haven't seen it on yet!
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:32:31 AM
Not fussy at all. I'll check it out in a bit. Working on the OCD bullcrap. ;-)
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:32:31 AM
There's the controlled lamps.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:32:31 AM
There's the GI.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:32:31 AM
Don't like this part of it. Not sure how to mount it yet.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:32:31 AM
There's how they show to mount it.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:32:31 AM
There's everything in the head.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 9:33:37 AM
Looking nice! Almost there!
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:35:07 AM
All that's left is the side mirrors. I ordered them better than two weeks ago. I sent them an email this morning.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:38:20 AM
That OCD stuff is really slick.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:38:20 AM
New problem though, none of the star post lights work. freak!!
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 9:42:02 AM
Ick - is it in low power GI mode? The voltage may be too low to light them up
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:44:57 AM
Interesting. I'll check. That must be in adjustments?
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 9:48:34 AM
Yes, there is a way to specify the minimum brightness in the config. You might email herg though and see what he says. I know they had some issues with the blinking bulbs (are those working?)
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:49:02 AM
Blinkers work fine.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:49:22 AM
I'll contact him and see.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 9:58:39 AM
If I go into GI test and run through the brightness, I get no change.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 9:59:21 AM
There should be a USB port on the go OCD board - that's what you'll need to configure
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:02:19 AM
Read number 4. And the rest I guess. LED's on the board are acting as they should. I have no idea how to do any of the reconfiguring and such. I have skills but not those.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:03:39 AM
Plan b would be to get herg to send us a splitter that would go between GI output and the GI OCD to let us power the star posts off of the raw voltage. But hopefully it can be fixed on the go OCD board.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:05:06 AM
I know on creature, I had to reverse the polarity on several of the small bulbs on the ramp.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:05:08 AM
My thought, even if we aren't getting dimming, the post lights should be on anyway.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:05:21 AM
Exactly
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:05:52 AM
I would say email herg and he can direct us
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:06:01 AM
These are soldered to a bayonet socket.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:06:41 AM
I'll try reversing the leads on one side just to see.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:06:53 AM
Kk
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:12:34 AM
Hot damn!!
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:12:51 AM
Reversing worked?!
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:13:08 AM
Yuppers.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:13:19 AM
Haha - easy peasy!
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:14:24 AM
He converts the voltages from AC to DC and from 60hz to 250hz so he has more granular control.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:14:39 AM
But DC has polarity!
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:14:57 AM
Ummmm. Ok. Lol
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:15:00 AM
As you know mr electrician
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:15:26 AM
I'll wire your house not dim your GI.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:16:17 AM
Heh. I do know I'd rather be shocked by 100v AC than 100v DC.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:16:56 AM
Oh dear god yes!!
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:16:58 AM
AC is tingly - DC hurts
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:17:29 AM
You can actually feel the ac changing. Trust me.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:17:55 AM
DC grabs you by the balls and won't let go!!!!
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:18:23 AM
And not in a pleasurable way to grab your balls
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:19:50 AM
Yeah. It's not your wife.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:20:45 AM
All work.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:24:18 AM
Dang - dodged a bullet on that one.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:24:24 AM
But do they dim?!?!
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 10:25:12 AM
I'll check in a bit.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 10:26:51 AM
And now you need to fix the LED rings ??
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 11:08:46 AM
I hate you.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 11:08:46 AM
And LED's.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 11:22:40 AM
Turns out the pop lamps are controlled. Not GI. But I've lost all controlled lamps.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 11:23:02 AM
Bummer
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 11:23:42 AM
Blew the fuse.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 11:23:42 AM
I'll replace and see what happens.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 11:24:00 AM
That's odd
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 11:25:05 AM
No idea.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 11:34:58 AM
Back on.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 12:39:49 PM
Do you have a use for your old glass? If not, Ill send you back some crapty stuff.
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 12:40:08 PM
Yea - I use it until I save up for pdi
iMessage Message sent 9/15/2016 12:40:41 PM
It's probably good glass that came off of a nib game
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/15/2016 2:36:12 PM
Cool. The good stuff is coming back.
iMessage Message sent 9/21/2016 8:52:33 AM
What is FH waiting on now?
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/21/2016 8:53:57 AM
Damn mirror blades ordered three weeks ago. I emailed them about a week ago and they send they were shipped and I should have them soon.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/21/2016 8:54:07 AM
Yeah, right.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/21/2016 12:27:33 PM
Mirrors showed up and of course the right one doesn't fit because of the panel that's only on FH.
iMessage Message sent 9/21/2016 12:28:14 PM
Can it be modded? Or just no mirrors?
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/21/2016 12:33:14 PM
I don't think a little something like that will stop me.
iMessage Message sent 9/21/2016 12:33:21 PM

iMessage Message sent 9/21/2016 12:55:32 PM
I do like the post lights for what it's worth ;). I'm sure they look even better in person
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/21/2016 12:55:40 PM
Damn pretty game!!
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/21/2016 12:56:10 PM
They really do make the bottom blue parts pop.
iMessage Message received from Bryan Kelly 9/21/2016 1:16:54 PM
Lighting I'm here kind of sucks but i'd buy it!!
