This playfield is just gorgeous. I'll set that on there gently. All right. Another little bit of bonus footage here. Evil Convvil is around 90% done. There's still some uh tweaking and dialing in to be doing, but have a look at where we're at now. We got a bunch of light bulbs that we got to sort out, but the apron is now populated with new decals and apron cards. Uh most of the plastics are installed. All of the new white posts are installed. The old yellowed placeholders are gone. New pop bumper caps, new double-sided spinner decals. Check that out. And powder coated um brackets as well. Powder coated the spinner, too. And then Powder coated the spinner, too. And then just put decals on. You powder coated the spinners. Oh, You powder coated the spinners. Oh, nice. Are these my old evil conval? Are these decals? I'm the only one who sells these decals. I'm the only one who sells these decals. These might be mine. I bet you they are. These don't look these are not the uh what do you call it? hot pressed um pop bumper cap originals. These are mine. They came from me. These are blanks bought from um pinball um resource and uh and then you apply my evil conval decals onto them to uh give you a nice fresh look. And yeah, so we've got the the new Wolfpack displays in here. Those are pin scores actually. Those are pin scores actually. Oh, pin score. Oh, okay. They look good. Oh, pin score. Oh, okay. They look good. got uh some sort of error going on there that will uh resolve. But uh like I said, it's 90% done. Toppers over here. Toppers over here. Oh yeah. Let's see what it looks like. Oh yeah. Let's see what it looks like. Oh yeah. Very cool. Thinking about possibly backlighting Thinking about possibly backlighting that. Not sure. Oh yeah. Okay. That's a good idea. Okay. Oh yeah. Okay. That's a good idea. Okay. Some more bonus footage this time on Evil Conval. Again, this is uh third visit to Evil Conievil, but it is about 90% done, maybe 95% done. This is uh John Trust's baby right here. And uh we're going to take a quick peek at it now that it is a finished product. And then JC is going to demo his game here. Have you played it yet? Once so far been here Once so far been here today. today. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So, you got one little warm-up Okay. So, you got one little warm-up game on it, but uh we're going to play a full game on it and just see how she plays. It's obviously looking incredible. The topper is now installed with some backlighting going on there. And uh what else? Keep Sorry, it's got uh like the pin score display it's got uh like the pin score display now. Oh, yeah. Pin score displays are Oh, yeah. Pin score displays are installed. Lighting's pretty well figured out. Lighting's pretty well figured out. Oh, yeah. We got to talk about the Oh, yeah. We got to talk about the lighting for a minute because there was an issue with the display that was shown in the last take and all kinds of lights were not working and uh we were going over trying to figure out what the issue was. We had Dutch repin the entire lamp driver board and that didn't solve the problem. And then he re-reppined the top left connector, the input connector on the lamp driver board just to be safe. that didn't solve the issue. And then last night, we were texting back and forth trying to figure out WTF was going on with the lights. And we uh determined that there must have been a short somewhere. Sure enough, there was. I'll show where the short was, but I'll even show the photo that uh you sent me last night. So, the reason the display and half the lights were not working is because this diode here was touching that little leg right there just ever so slightly. So, it took us hours and hours and hours of troubleshooting and about 1 second to bend that out and solve all the above problems. So, that was fun. So, like I said, this is uh 95% done. There is one weak saucer solenoid. I got a new solenoid today that Kevin's going to install. And uh so that might be a little bit funky, but for the most part, everything else should be good. Uh I do like the clear lane guides on the outside there. Let the light shine through nicely. But anyway, it is a beauty. And uh JC, you ready to uh give her a full game here? All right. So, let her rip. We stole the ball back out of Sea Witch. Gave it back to Evil Conbo here. And um So, the idea is you want to like, well, for the most part, you want to really just rip spinners. If I'm playing this in a tournament, that's going to be my strategy. Just whatever spinner is lit, they alternate with different switches. And uh I'm just going to be aiming for the lit spinner. If you hit the set of drop targets down, that'll give you a double bonus. If you hit them down again, it'll give you an extra ball. Feel free to cheat cuz uh you know, evil can evil can be very evil. And we want the game to last at least a minute. Oh, again. So, also if you spell cycle, you got C L E C Y there. Good things happen. If you spell super by getting into the saucer, more good things happen. Here we go. Might get a free saucer. Free saucer. Keep Let's spell super. All right, we spelled super. Got a couple extra games there. At least one. Uh, you can also spell super with this target here. just hit the target at every location. So, I just need it on the E now. So, wait. Oh, yeah. When this red light is on the E, then hit the center. So, that's random things. Oh, there it is. Got it. Boom. Pregame. All right. So, now we are on ball two. So, this is ball three. See if you can uh rip a uh couple more spinners here. Oh, save it. Save it. Oh, nice. Good one. I can't believe like it's not all that easy to cheat to steal the ball out of the outline sometimes. As you saw, I failed doing that on sea witch a couple times.
    11:49
    All right. See We're on the wrong flipper for the lit spinner, but that was a good grip. Saucer kicked out properly that time.
    12:04
    I think the inlane changes the spinner, too. So, like, for example, if your spinner is here, and I think if you go down the in lane there, you're thinking, "Oh, I'm going to rip that lit spinner." But I think it changes. Yeah. See that? So, it tricks you.
    12:26
    104,000 points. There we go. 130,000 points. So, probably a good 20,000 points for a lit spinner. Let's Let's calculate. You're at 130 now. See if you can rip that left spinner. 130 to 145. All right. So, it's about 15,000 on that one.
    12:59
    Just need the S to spell super. Oh, there's a good rip. It's probably 15 20,000 points for that guy. Hey, I'm going to give you a double bonus. So, you're at max, which is um 15,000 and so 30,000 in bonus. But there it is. Evil conval pretty much done. High score to date three more free games. And uh yeah, JC will be taking this home fairly soon. But it is another Grazy Garage masterpiece. And oh, by the way, the scammers that are using all Kevin's photos, here's some more beautiful footage that you can use, bastards. Okay, so this is uh Rob Vieira's Harlem project. And then you have a new project here from Sean Bennish. Yeah, Yeah, this is what a Zachariah game or this is what a Zachariah game or something. Zachariah Combat. Dutch is pretty much Zachariah Combat. Dutch is pretty much taking care of that, is he? Yeah. So, Yeah. So, here it is right here. Check this out. here it is right here. Check this out. four player electromechanical. I don't imagine they made a whole lot of these. But again, Sean Bennish has really jumped on the Grazley train. Eh, this is what his fourth machine now. Three are actually. Three are actually. Yeah. Three still here. Yeah. Three still here. And then it was the Barraora that's come And then it was the Barraora that's come and gone. Yeah. But Zitch hopefully will be gone Yeah. But Zitch hopefully will be gone by next weekish. Oh yeah, Oh yeah, hopefully. hopefully. Is that over in Is that over in rubbers? rubbers? You ran out of rubbers. Oh, here's the You ran out of rubbers. Oh, here's the stash. I might have to root through this. I brought uh brought my black rubbers. And uh I'm down to literally just three. If you don't have them, then I may just keep them black. They're far back at the back of the playfield. Wish you something must in there. Wish you something must in there. Yeah. I mean, these are looking Yeah. I mean, these are looking promising. There might be. There might be. Like I literally when you were texting Like I literally when you were texting me, I was making an ordering. I'm like, man, I got to order. It was $791 in rubbers. That's amazing. Just in just in these. That's amazing. Just in just in these. Yes. Just clear rubbers. So, we got Oh, yeah. This is um another So, we got Oh, yeah. This is um another project. This is Getaway. This is a Mike Boom's machine. Yep. Yep. So, what was the deal? He like traded a So, what was the deal? He like traded a Godzilla for a Getaway and a Fishtails or something, but the Getaway wasn't all chocked up to but the Getaway wasn't all chocked up to what he thought it was going to be. and he was going to maybe uh tackle the project himself, but Rob Vieira suggested that you're the guy and uh well, here it is. and uh well, here it is. So, what's so bad about it? Just I mean, So, what's so bad about it? Just I mean, just it definitely looks like it's worse for wear. it's worse for wear. Pardon? Pardon? At the bottom, the chunk of At the bottom, the chunk of Oh, yeah. There's a nice little chunk. Oh, yeah. There's a nice little chunk. I think the back is the worst. I think the back is the worst. Is it? Excuse me. Amir skin. Is it? Excuse me. Amir skin. You can't really see, but there's like You can't really see, but there's like Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's pretty bad. This has been uh moved around a few times to the point where it's missing the uh nylon feet. And yep, it's a beater, but it won't be for long. I see a couple but it won't be for long. I see a couple mods on it, too. Yeah, it's got a CPR mirror back glass Yeah, it's got a CPR mirror back glass on it. Oh, does it? Oh, that's cool. Oh, does it? Oh, that's cool. Should we? Should we?

Okay, we just lowered this Oh, probably. Okay, we just lowered this playfield so we could have a look at it. this combat playfield here. I don't know that I've ever seen one, but it looks pretty cool. And in Zachariah fashion, it's very, very colorful. It's got every color under the sun. Little like a rollover zone. That looks fun. It's rollover zone. That looks fun. It's almost bagelli. Play the shipwreck game. bagelli. Play the shipwreck game. Spinner here. Spinner here. That's a unique location for a spinner. And we got some drop targets. Bombs. Bombs away. Bombs. Bombs away. Cool. Ooh, if you don't have the rubbers I need here. Might have to like just snipe a couple off of combat. Banish won't mind. Look at this. Zachariah. Look at this. Zachariah. I We don't know. It's like I think it's I We don't know. It's like I think it's a speaker. Wait a minute. Is that a speaker? Wait a minute.

You liar. Plug it in and see what it You liar. Plug it in and see what it does do. These are some interesting uh like posts or whatever you even call those. Mhm. Mhm. This spinner mech is bad. This spinner mech is bad. I'm surprised these aren't all smashed I'm surprised these aren't all smashed to a bit. So, there's a rubber there. there's a rubber there. Well, true, but still. Well, true, but still. There's like There's like It looks like a very uh It looks like a very uh it's a leaf switch inside there. it's a leaf switch inside there. Vulnerable zone. Vulnerable zone. Oh, is there underneath there? And Oh, is there underneath there? And there's a little doohickey that triggers it. But the problem is that it gets hung up. I think I have it adjusted perfectly now, but it was very finicky where it just get hung up all the time. Okay. Okay. I think I finally got it adjusted I think I finally got it adjusted properly. Yeah, it looks like it's spinning good. Yeah, it looks like it's spinning good. Oh, I like the little Oh, I like the little All right. Well, let's see what happens All right. Well, let's see what happens if we power this on. Hey, we got lights. Doing pretty good. Doing pretty good. Oh, look at this. Oh, look at this. Is that a Is that your secret handshake? Is that a Is that your secret handshake? It is. It is. Oh, okay. That's amazing. Oh, okay. That's amazing. Only the cool kids know. Only the cool kids know. And we're done. And we're done. Okay. Oh, that was the extended version. Okay. Oh, that was the extended version. Okay, so we got some blinker bulbs. Okay, so we got some blinker bulbs. We got some LEDs. Did you guys put in We got some LEDs. Did you guys put in all these LEDs? Yes. Yes. Okay. Okay. So, what does it do? Like blow up ships So, what does it do? Like blow up ships and shoes? Actually, there's a there's a ship right Actually, there's a there's a ship right here on the back glass and when you hit certain things there's the lights come on and it it explodes and probably get some cool speaker uh and probably get some cool speaker uh sound effects. I believe there is a speaker sound I believe there is a speaker sound effect. The problem is that nothing. Uh, that's driving nothing. Uh, that's driving where Cory Cook comes in. where Cory Cook comes in. I wonder if it's just a fuse. I wonder if it's just a fuse. And what does the back glass look like And what does the back glass look like again? Here's the ship that we're talking about. Oh, yeah. I see it. I was trying to fit it in there. The I was trying to fit it in there. The back glass doesn't fit into the channel. Oh, really? Oh, really? I had to pry it out and I can't get it I had to pry it out and I can't get it back in. Oh, okay then. Oh, okay then. It's almost like the groove is too small It's almost like the groove is too small for this like trim piece or the bottom. or the bottom. Yeah, I couldn't I can't force it back Yeah, I couldn't I can't force it back down. M. So, I have to figure that out. M. So, I have to figure that out. Is it a repro back glass? I mean, I Is it a repro back glass? I mean, I can't imagine that. No, this looks original. No, this looks original. Like stretched or something. Like stretched or something. Just doesn't fit. But yeah, the So, the Just doesn't fit. But yeah, the So, the explosion would happen right here. I think it has an explosion sound, but I think it has an explosion sound, but it also lights this area up. That's cool. That's cool. I'm looking forward to seeing this when I'm looking forward to seeing this when it is working. And we'll have to have a game on it for sure. Look what you made. Yeah. Travel size. Yeah. Travel size. That's awesome. And like I have I I sent That's awesome. And like I have I I sent you my sort of design that I got. I have a bigger one of this, but I I I have a bigger one of this, but I I made another one for so you don't have to bring it back and forth. Well, I like that this is kind of Well, I like that this is kind of smaller pocket size and you only have one of each. Mine has two of each, which is not really necessary unless which is not really necessary unless you're sort of comparing two different LEDs. That's what I was I built this one and That's what I was I built this one and then I was trying to find I think we're going to put end up putting color changes in the pop bumpers or something. Oh, yeah. But I want I You can't compare Oh, yeah. But I want I You can't compare whether one moves faster than the other on this thing. You kind of need a side by side, right? Yeah. Yeah. right? Yeah. Yeah. But let's see how it goes. But let's see how it goes. There you go. Beautiful. Nice job. There you go. Beautiful. Nice job. Thank you. The zip ties are That's not a Thank you. The zip ties are That's not a design thing. I couldn't figure out how to keep the batteries from flying out. I like the zip tie idea. I like the zip tie idea. I tried zip tying around the holder and I tried zip tying around the holder and we just squeeze them and pop the center one out and the side ones were popping out. So, this is the most elegant design I could come up with. Hey, that works. That's Daddy holder was not great. Daddy holder was not great. Very leppy. I appreciate it. Very leppy. I appreciate it. It works. It works. Yeah, exactly. Okay, we're going to head Yeah, exactly. Okay, we're going to head over to the garage before we head out of here and uh see what is going on because there is more. There is the sea witch I mentioned. Uh I think there's some light switches around here. Ah, yes. Here it is. Ah, you got the coin door done. Powder coated. Yeah, it was black.
    34:00
    Oh, was it? Oh, okay. So, we painted So, we painted it black legs black. Um, it black legs black. Um, way better. way better. And then this was black and painted all And then this was black and painted all that black. So, I just Oh, the head trim was black. Yeah. Oh, wow. This is black witch. So Sean Oh, wow. This is black witch. So Sean didn't like it, so I just Yeah, fixed it. Yeah, fixed it. Much better. Much better. And then uh here is the playfield And then uh here is the playfield swapperation going on over here. Made some good progress. Backside is Made some good progress. Backside is pretty much done. Yeah, I just got to fix do all the crazy Yeah, I just got to fix do all the crazy mess, but that's Oh, yeah. You ran into a few surprises. Oh, yeah. You ran into a few surprises. Someone got a little crazy with the uh the wood screws two in the same hole. And not only that, that was uh right into the old playfield, right? So that section rip all these section rip all these there. That's where they were, right there. That's where they were, right into the playfield. But you must have found at least 10 random screws throughout the playfield. the brackets, the uh bushings. Yep. Fantastic. Yep. Fantastic. But, um, looking like you're, uh, near But, um, looking like you're, uh, near the finish line on the bottom side. Yeah. Everything's done except for the Yeah. Everything's done except for the good rubber flipper brackets now. Yeah. Well, you got the one flipper Yeah. Well, you got the one flipper bracket now. That'll help uh the process. And what does the top side look like? Oo, looks very nice.
    35:44
    Is your rotisserie? Uh, I won't get you to flip it right now, but all the things. all the things. Look at that. Oh, yeah. Okay, that is Look at that. Oh, yeah. Okay, that is awesome. Obviously, we'll have to come back and see this when it is done. Who did this playfield? Like, what are we pickers? Like, what are we pickers? It doesn't look CPR. It doesn't look CPR. No, it was some just guy. Oh, is it John No, it was some just guy. Oh, is it John Great Witch? I think it was maybe John Great Witch. I think it was maybe John Great Witch. I was just talking with him like I was just talking with him like yesterday because he wants to maybe buy some displays off me. So, I kind of like researched him a little bit and I'm sure it said he did like Sea Witch and maybe Catacomb and some other playfields for Early Stern. So, this is probably a great witch. Okay, just going to do a little bit of bonus footage here. I was here on Saturday with Amir. It is now Tuesday and Kevin has uh made some progress on the sea witch. You can hear it with its awesome background sounds right now. The sound of the ocean. But have a look at this brand new playfield. Top side is done. Just a matter of doing some dialing in now. You say eh? Yeah. Playfield just went in when Yeah. Playfield just went in when the Playfield just went into the cabinet like today or last night. Last night. We Last night. We got the blue I'm assuming Wolfpack LED got the blue I'm assuming Wolfpack LED displays. Are these new pop bumper caps, too? They Are these new pop bumper caps, too? They look really good. No, the the remakes don't have this No, the the remakes don't have this yellow line. Oh, really? Like today, so it's just Oh, really? Like today, so it's just blue, so I kept the originals. Oh, yeah. Cool. Oh, yeah. Cool. But yeah, you um made some quick work on this. I brought you some blue flipper rubbers to go. Yep. With the ocean theme there. With the ocean theme there. So, uh when is Sean going to be coming by to grab this? Cuz this looks like it is darn near the finish line. Just needs some um dialing in now that the playfield's in. Yeah. Yeah. I'll plunge a ball.
    37:58
    and flip. See, it works. It scores. I'm going to play one more ball now. It's one-handed. Oh, there's one thing. Add that to the list. LEDs are looking good.
    38:18
    Oh, game over. But there it is. see which once it's uh dialed in, we'll uh have a good game on it. A proper game. I don't think I caught the attract mode in the last little video there. So, check that out. Now, you can really see all the uh LEDs in action. Okay, back yet again for some bonus more bonus footage. We're here with JC and Kevin and the Sea Witch is now complete. So, going to add this on to the existing video. This is like my third take on this game in various different stages of completion, but it is now done. You I see you got the blue flipper rubbers on that I brought last time. And uh yeah, so this is the John Great Witch Playfield, the CPR back glass, the LED displays, and uh a little bit of paint, a little bit of powder coating, and a lot of um you know, cleaning and dialing in and tweaking and beautifying in general. So going to play a game on this and uh have some fun on SeaWitch. So, so, uh, let's give her a go. All right. Hey, I got a free th,000 points for, uh, drop target. Sweet. Okay. Uh, got to find a ball first, probably. Where's the ball hiding? It's not in there. I'm going to steal it It's not in there. I'm going to steal it from uh, another game.
    40:02
    There we go. Found a ball. Hey. Oh, wait. I shouldn't have did that. Now it's on ball two. Okay, that's my uh
    40:13
    Okay, let's uh This could be the greatest ball three in the history of SeaWit. If not, I might just have to have another game. But there's a loot shot.
    40:33
    If you want a uh a good tutorial on how to play this game, go check it out. I posted one. Okay, that is the tutorial on how not to play this game. So, let's give this an actual proper game here. So, what we want to be doing is chasing this bonus multiplier around. It will change to different drop target banks and that will build up some goodness. And I believe I don't know. It's been a while since I did the tutorial. I think if you hit all three drop target banks that might light the uh orbits for 2x loopage, but uh the more stuff you do, the more the lights show up on the orbit. So, you can see my blue lights on the left orbit are starting to uh you know, I'm getting almost them all complete. I just got two left to go. But let's hit this drop target here. That is a bonus multiplier. I'm at 3x. Now the X is gone over here. So I can hit those drop targets.
    41:48
    There we go. And look at that. I lit the 2x loops. So it might have been a total of three drop target banks, but you can see the 2x loops are ready to go. Fully lit blue light. So, one more um green target here to fully light my spinner, too. So, now it's time to rip some loops and spinners.
    42:11
    Let's try and go a little later. No, a little later. Don't do it to me. No. Okay. [ __ ] Had everything. An extra ball lit. So, my bonus multiplier does carry over.
    42:34
    It's tough to get consecutive loops in this game. I will try though if I can. And one of the toughest shots is from the bottom right flipper to this upper orbit shot. It's doable, but it's super tough. Okay, let's try a soft plunge this time. the upper flipper and then some loops. Here we go. Oh, no. Let's do it. Okay, I tried to cheat three times. I failed the first two times.
    43:08
    Let's just keep it the last time. We'll just have one more half decent pile here. Hopefully, there's a rip. Not a 2x rip, BUT
    43:32
    There's always something to go for on this game. It's either drops, loops, spinners, or these targets. So, you're always progressing on something. See if I can hit that left orbit. Oh, that's close.
    43:47
    Chase that X around. There we go. There's a free one. Okay, now I want top right drop targets. Let's uh try and tap pass for fun. Fail. I'll take that.
    44:15
    Starting to get some uh good bonus points. I like these. Oh, no. I was too busy looking at the nice purple LEDs. Not bad. There we go. Okay, all three sets of target tanks are down. So, I got my 2x loops. Also, these blinking lights here, that is like collect bonus. Right now it's 26,000 times 7. So I got that there and there. So let's try and double click. Here we go. This time no.
    44:56
    This is This is sketchy. This is sketchy. Here we go. Here we go. Listen for it. Oh, cut out my bonus meltdown sound. But that's all right. We'll get this other drop target here and get some more bonus. Try shots this time. Okay, we'll do that. I can shhats for an extra ball after as well. Oh my god, it's on wheels. Here we go.
    45:26
    Okay, later. How many times am I going to miss that? Let's Let's do a misount. Oh, the extra ball like alternates with slingshots. I better get that now. And that and
    45:51
    So many reasons why people love Sea Witch. It's like crash sound effect at the end of the bonus meltdown there. Okay, last fall. It's over. Well, it's playing awesome, looking amazing. Sean Bennish will be one happy customer. And um that's it. Did I get the high score to date? No, not even close. What have you become, Monte Carlo? What have you become, Monte Carlo? Kevin's new workbench. Oh, before I go, Kevin's new workbench. Oh, before I go, I just noticed on the Alaska here on the Alaska here that the uh powder coating is in. We matched up this color. And check this out. This is like bright fluorescent dark orange. That's a bit of an oxymoron, but it is uh it matches perfectly the beehive. And um it's going to look awesome. All right, it's going to look awesome. All right, that was the tour of the Grazley garage. What did you think there, Gold? Pretty cool. Yeah. Yeah, that's a lot of Pretty cool. Yeah. Yeah, that's a lot of uh arcade and pinball machines in one space. So glad you got to check that out. So glad you got to check that out. Oh, cool. Oh, cool. All right, we're off to the slots to go All right, we're off to the slots to go win that $5,000 now. Let's go rub those gold balls. We came to win the $5,000 draw. We didn't win that, but we could win $8,000 right here, right now. Two spins to fill up that last spot with a gold coin. And we're winning the with a gold coin. And we're winning the grand $8500 prize right here, baby. All right. Well, that's like 60 bucks. There we go. $76. Not quite 5 G's, but we'll take it. We back in another bonus we'll take it.
