TL;DR

Jack Danger begins restoring a donated Stars machine with full playfield teardown and parts replacement.

Summary

Jack Danger from Dead Flip streams a full teardown and restoration of a Stars pinball machine. The machine, a permanent donation to the Dead Flip facility, has no power cable and a broken lock. The stream covers drilling out the lock, cataloging replacement parts (rubbers, drop targets, flipper rebuild kit, decals, wax, cleaning supplies), removing playfield components, and planning the rebuild workflow with community advice via chat.

Key Claims

  • Stars machine was donated to the Dead Flip facility as a permanent installation that they decided to restore and clean up for the first time

    high confidence · Jack Danger: 'This game is actually one of those permanent loaders and we decided to drop a few bucks into it to clean it up and make it a working game because we've never done anything like this before.'

  • The machine has no power cable and a broken lock that required drilling to open

    high confidence · Jack Danger: 'we do not have a key, no, so we're going to be drilling it out' and 'We still have to go to the hardware store too, for the power cable.'

  • The playfield is an early 1970s design with physical chimes, not electronic scoring

    high confidence · Jack Danger: 'It looks like they gave me a cute little tote. Cute tote. Flipper! It's the flipper rebuild kit' and 'It looks clean as hell, actually. And it's got chimes in it.'

  • Jack obtained replacement parts from Marco, Pinball Life, and other suppliers

    high confidence · Jack Danger: 'Where did you buy the replacement parts? We got them from all over the place. We got some from Marco, we got some from Pinball Life'

  • The playfield components are held together primarily with rubber nubs/nuggets rather than traditional fasteners

    high confidence · Jack Danger: 'You know what's crazy? All the plastics are held on with these rubber little nubs. It's insane' and 'So that those little rubber pellets just jump on.'

  • The restoration plan includes full playfield disassembly, cleaning, new rubbers, waxing, drop target replacement, flipper rebuild, and new spinner decals

    high confidence · Jack Danger: 'We're going to take everything off the playfield. We're going to clean it. We're replacing the drop targets. We're rebuilding the flippers. All new rubbers. We're going to wax it and clean it.'

  • Jack initially thought the leaf switch adjuster was 'a huge waste of money' but was corrected by chat that it's actually needed

    high confidence · Jack Danger: 'from Marco here's our leaf switch adjuster which honestly after examining it looks like a huge waste of money just a piece of metal' and later 'I thought it was BS, but it is not BS. After all.'

    It's Tuesday. And we finally have all of our parts for our Stern Stars here. So we're going to start shopping this bad boy out. Take a look, take a gander.
    3:45
    We have all of our rubbers from Titan Pinball. This will cover everything on the game. we have our blitz wax to wax the plate field once we get everything off we got these fun little gauze things for wiping the thing down, it's going to be great and then we got this fun tool Lord Squeak, thanks for the host man from Marco here's our leaf switch adjuster which honestly after examining it looks like a huge waste of money just a piece of metal.
    4:26
    Fuses. Gotta have them fuses. The drop targets. New drop targets for the drop target assemblies here.
    4:37
    We got new drop targets. We got some crab. That's stupid. Novus 1 for cleaning. Novus 2 for the real cleaning. These are the original decals for the spinners. On the other side is a different design. It looks like that right there. Sorry, my fingernails are disgusting. Lease switch adjuster is needed. Alright, Gerson, get it now. Some bubble wrap. Looks like they gave me a cute little tote. Cute tote.
    5:24
    Flipper! It's the flipper rebuild kit. So we can rebuild the flippers on this. Flat dead, but good to see you, bub.
    5:34
    Bro, bro. These are our flipper bushings to raise off the playfield. Here is our new lock assembly for the door once we drill it out. This is actually a key list entry that we're going to put in for now. Should work out fine. No one comes in here. We're not putting money in the damn games. It doesn't matter. So we're good. I heard you had one of the streams going. Bulbs for days. Bulbs for days. Lamps for days. And that should be it. So what we're going to do, put everything that in here. We're going to drill this thing open and assess what's going on inside. I expect you're doing it right. Flipper rebuild kit is, yeah, dude, totally. I'm excited.
    6:26
    We got a text message from someone that has nothing to do with nothing. Cool. Nobody comes in here. Yeah, so I was told this is the wax that you need. Like, this is the business for when you get everything off. Clean it with the Novus, wax it, Novus again, right? Back to work for me. All right, Blue Flannel. Paul8788, for 11 months in a row, brother, thank you for maintaining your membership to the league. You're amazing. Ladies and gentlemen, flippers and butts up for my boy Paul. How the hell are you, man? Almost one year. No LEDs. No LEDs. Screw LEDs. Bulbs for days. We want this thing to feel legit. Yo, look. Right down here. The logo for stars. Check that out.
    7:25
    Okay. So, here's what we're going to do. Hell yes, Grace. That's awesome, dude. It's time to get in here. And we don't have the key for this. So we are going to drill.
    7:44
    It's good to have a drill that gets with a hammering action on it. So, I love you. Here we go. Babush! We are in! We didn't have to drill all the way through, because what happens is, instead of going through the screw here, instead of going through that screw, what it did is it actually unlocked it for us, so you didn't have to go all the way in. way too big of a bit. Nah, we're good. We're good. We're good boys.
    8:43
    Wreck the tumblers. That's all you gotta do. You can drill all the way through the screw or you can just screw the tumblers. It doesn't matter. So we'll unscrew this off of here. Come on baby. Wait, am I fighting that? There's that. The magnet will clean the metal shards up. Easily. Cool. Metal shards. Am I typing that? Solid start. Free raccoon! Oh my god! Okay, so we got a... Woo! Ha! As expected. Alright, we need a trash receptacle. As expected. Alright, we need a trash receptacle.
    9:52
    Alright, we got metal shards everywhere, that's good. I'm sure the whole cabinet needs to be vacuumed. You think that's the thing? Alright, lock bar. Come on, add in the lock bar.
    10:07
    There we go. All right, let's install the new lock right now. Where'd you go, buddy? Hello! Oh, there you go. Trash the set-skill, aka the floor. Yeah, you got to lay down on the towel and pick up all those metal shards. That's okay. Not the end of the world. Nothing a little sweep-a-dee-per. Can't take care of it. Cool. the deeper, you can't take care of it. Cool.
    11:09
    Oh, that's awesome. So that's locked. Unlocked. Cool. Got it. I can screw this thing on here. Did you buy this machine Jack? No, I did not. This game is actually one of those permanent loaders and we decided to drop a few bucks into it to clean it up and make it a working game because we've never done anything like this before. We've never stopped a game on it.
    12:00
    So we're just tightening this to the door and then we'll screw on the actual locking piece of metal. Alright, there's that. Oh, hot. That's sexy. Cool, right there. Screw this on. Cool idea. Yeah. We just, we've never done it before so I figured, you know, we're just going to do it. for us. I figured this is the best opportunity to do so. Where's that drill? Oh, in the semi-tiny. Oh, I'm sitting on it.
    12:56
    Oh, baby. Cool. We are in. There are no quarters in it, it seems. Someone did try cranking this game open though. There's a little bit of a dent here. You see that? Some definitely tried cranking that open.
    13:10
    Nah, it's pretty empty in here. It is missing its tilt knob, freakin' butt. Something else we gotta ride.
    13:26
    That's awesome. Alright, don't look at my hand grabbing my testicles. Alright, here we go. So the glass is off.
    13:37
    These all feel pretty good. Looks like the drop target assemblies work okay. These are all... This all feels really good. the arcade for six months in a row and Techie Barone for four months in a row you both dropped it at the same time you sons of guns thank you both for maintaining your membership to the league you're amazing ladies and gentlemen blow up the chat with some love for me please get it up in there okay so this is trash So, let's lift up the place real quick. And I'll tell you, it looks clean as hell, actually. And it's got chimes in it. What's the best way to do this? Hold on, let me swing this out. Let me swing this out. See? Physical chimes? Right there? There is no ball in here, Wonko. the ball is out. So we got some physical chimes, the drop target assembly is look filthy. Cool. Where? Oh, this is for holding this up. Awesome. What, I'm not a subscriber anymore? I don't know what happened, Gearson. So we might have to move this camera over here a little bit. Let's just do that right now. I don't know what happened Jason. What happened? What happened? Jason what happened?
    15:36
    So this is all looking pretty good. Uh, bulbs, rollover. great this thing needs a new screw for the chime okay well you know what we're gonna do is start to disassemble you like the top of my head is that a fun view top of my head so if we come down like this. Oh that was a cool pan.
    16:28
    Alright so all these guys, so these, yeah these, these all feel really good. Awesome. No disassemble! Uh, you mean absolutely disassemble. It's time to tear you apart, Johnny Five. I'm sorry, bub. Johnny Five is alive! Did you know Johnny Five was alive in that movie? I'm not sure if you've seen uh, Short Circuit. It's a great movie. The Junkyard Town Marine.
    17:10
    Fair enough. Okay, so, Wonko. Gotta love older games, few coils. Wonko, I got a question for you, buddy. So, what is the best way to approach taking all this stuff off?
    17:22
    Is it, like, start with one thing, bag it all up, leave the wiring harness stuck on here for now? Playfield swap on that would be an afternoon job? Nice, dude.
    17:34
    Hey, these movies. Oh, I'm going to eventually need a soldering iron, aren't I? You do not need to take stuff off the bottom. Okay. I do not need to take stuff off the bottom. All right. I don't know about that. like taking all the stuff off the top so I can clean the thing fully.
    18:09
    Yo, Ultimate Rio, how you doing, stud? We're working on something a little special. Isn't that special?
    18:26
    Only the flipper mix to rebuild them. Everything else can stay on. All right, cool. Yo, Zeether, what's up, buddy? Good to see you, man.
    18:34
    Alright, so the flipper mechs are going to come off. Everything else can stay on. Is it imperative that I desodder these, or can I just cut them, strip them, and re-sodder them later?
    18:50
    I'm just defecting to you, Wonko. Oh, yeah, let me get this off. Take pictures. Oh, definitely taking pictures. That is for sure.
    19:02
    I will need a soldering iron. Okay. Do you solder? Can do. All right, we're going to need a soldering iron. That doesn't affect us for taking some of this crap off.
    19:16
    Because we'll start taking all the stuff off the playfield first. What are we actually replacing, fixing, by the way? So we're going to take everything off the playfield. We're going to clean it. We're replacing the drop targets. We're rebuilding the flippers. All new rubbers. We're going to wax it and clean it. It's going to be dope. Alright, so let's take a gander here. One last time. Let's drop this down. Well that's a crazy view, huh?
    19:52
    So I guess we'll just start unscrewing and pulling stuff off so we can clean it. While we listen to this. All the rubbers, etc. are topside. Alright, cool.
    20:05
    What? Gearson! Gearson's back, baby! Welcome back, stud. Welcome back, brother. You made it, Gearson. You did it.
    20:18
    Whoa. What the hell was that? I think... Oh, did I accidentally turn... Wait. You didn't donate. How the hell did that happen?
    20:32
    We'll just start removing stuff off the top side. We'll make sure we're locked in, zoomed in, all that fun stuff. All right, cool. Vigo's watching over us. All hail Vigo. Vigo's been doing a good job of taking care of me, so I want to make sure we take care him. Okay, so we are gonna start popping this stuff off. So one really quick picture of everything. it
    21:31
    all right cool Vigo oh yeah I forgot here's Vigo So these are just little rubber stop doodads? What the hell are these things? There's not even screws holding this plastic on. It's literally little rubber doodads. Look at this. Little rubber doodads. That's kind of cool. So you said one, I said 100 pictures. Okay, we're actually going to empty these rubbers out so that we can use this to hold our classes. Yeah, rubber caps, it's really strange. rubber, old ass rubber. Here I'll zoom in a little bit more on where I'm working. There
    22:39
    we go. Okay, so we got screws here. We need a screwdriver. We just so happen to have a screwdriver. Take off the plastic. I'm taking everything off. I'm guessing all these posts are the same, so if I get them mixed up, it's not the end the world. Looks like very early comic book art. Yeah. How the frick did I get these off, man? Is it like a bolt? That is weird. Yeah, it's like a bolt. Yeah, there we go baby. My boot. Take everything off. off the human too. Looking good, looking good. Everybody's looking good. How's everyone doing today by the way? Certain posts will have different bolt screws so take note of what goes where? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Alright, cool. Where did I put my phone? I wanted, maybe I should get like individual baggies for everything. Human suit detected. Good. Drop out.
    24:49
    Looks good, feels good. Leafs. So very loose. Very loose. Alright. Pop the caps off of you. Yes, take pictures. Oh yeah, I got you buddies. Gotcha. I don't know if I like these plastics in with the screws. Ooh, that one plastic is warped AF.
    25:14
    Let me look for some here. All the plastics are going to be put in some bubble wrap. Bubble wrap. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking, Goran.
    25:37
    Be careful not to bend the leaf switches while shopping. I screwed that up first time. Nice. You just put the thingies you take out in certain... in piles. A, B, and C. Yeah, that's what I'm guessing. That's what we're gonna do.
    25:51
    What we gonna do? Old Rubbers, Old Man Rubbers, we don't need those Old Man Rubbers, everyone look at your Old Man Rubbers.
    26:15
    All you guys stay here, this is your place, this is where you belong. Don't cross the piles! Yeah, I think we'll be okay. We'll be okay. We got nothing to worry about. All my tiles!
    26:53
    Old Man Rubbers, he must know something. It's Vigo! Yeah, Vigo's chilling, helping us out today, folks. If you're not familiar with Vigo, he is the Scourge of Carpathia. Awesome dude. That's a very good question, Wolfs. I don't have any idea. But I'm not going to question anything. Man, whoever bolted these down though just went ham.
    27:35
    With hand skis. Hand skis with the bolt skis. Alright, that's the slingshot pile. Rubbers, rubbers. You don't think you can do that with Viggo looking over your shoulder? Viggo's a good dude.
    28:06
    Viggo and I haven't had any falling out yet, but falling's out. Where is the shooting star emote? Do you guys want a shooting star emote? Always wear your robes. Exactly.
    28:38
    Hope everyone's having a good day. Tomorrow, I'm not sure what we're doing tomorrow. We're probably going to work on this more. You just need to replace the top parts, also work. So Ultimate Rio, here's what's happening. We're taking off and cleaning everything on the game.
    28:54
    We're going to replace all the rubbers on everything. Give it a nice cleaning. A nice waxing. Rebuild the flippers.
    29:03
    New pop bumper. Or, I'm sorry, new drop targets. Just some super basic stuff, but it's going to be fun. You know what's crazy? All the plastics are held on with these rubber little nubs. It's insane. Gamer Me, how you doing?
    29:17
    I am going to watch Charlie tomorrow. huh. Per-ferb? What was that? These rubbers do screw on though, which is strange. Plastics,
    29:40
    plastics, whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do-do-do-do-do? Don't forget to make piles, ladies and gentlemen.
    30:01
    I think you need nylon nuts. Uh, what? Oh, double danger. Yeah, this is pretty awesome. Yeah, we're taking it apart to clean it up and put newer stuff on it, is what we're doing.
    30:19
    Let's take this off. Oh, old crunchy rubbers. Old crunchy rubbers. It better be yours. Whatcha gonna do when legal comes for you? It's like the new Cops. Cops was filmed in Carpathia with the men and women of It's Actually Just You. Um, I need a post-it note, hold on. Technical screen.
    31:17
    all right I don't have any post-it notes so we're gonna use name tags hi my Twitter name is slingshot okay
    31:47
    Playing creative, I think. You know what, Wolf? I don't know. I think it's still pinball. Why not? If someone yells at me, I'll change it. It's not the end of the world. I'm not going to get banned for streaming under pinball and doing this.
    32:05
    Mid, left, swing. Okay. Never enough picks when tearing one apart. Yeah, that's what I'm noticing. We got the picks, that's for sure.
    32:32
    Alright, I hate these little nut things. Is there a drop down option to select not playing? Absolutely.
    32:47
    Okay, uh, so one of those was a screw. All right, yeah. We got to make sure we see exactly which ones are screws and which ones aren't.
    33:14
    No photos or videos. Come on. Don't look at the gross photos on my phone, because they're really gross and you want to take them home. Screw, screw, got it. Cool. This music's so bouncy. Because I wanted to have this video exist on the internet without being muted on YouTube or something, I can't listen to copyrighted music. So we're listening to Monstercat, which is all just free-to-listen-to music. Ugh, gross. You guys want some old rubber? You guys want some old rubbers? What you need to do is watch out for the different length top posts. Yeah. Don't worry, I'm sectioning stuff off. So we should be good. We got the photos, we got the lumps, we got the clumps. I mean, I would be more concerned for how I'm organizing the stuff if I had a cleaning lady, but at the new studio, it's all me, so this place will never get clean.
    34:51
    I'm guessing that all these things. So far, I've only seen one, two different sized posts, and they're the ones with the bolts on them. The one with the bolts are differently shaped than the ones without the bolts.
    35:08
    Yo, Scroby, how you doing, man? Yeah, this is fun. You missed the drilling of the lock, dude. That was like cutting the ribbon on the new building.
    35:34
    Man, man, man, man, man, man. Oh, let's be careful of the plastics, please. These are the craziest looking things, man.
    35:58
    These things are bonkers. Look at that. The tops of them are just ripped. Come on, Autofocus. My fingernails are disgusting, by the way. The tops of them are ribbed. It's not focusing.
    36:10
    The tops are ribbed. You see that? So that those little rubber pellets just jump on. Grab on. Grab on to the tampon.
    36:23
    I'll catch up tomorrow. Nice, dude. All right. What are these? Just a little toast to my job. Ripped for my pleasure. No driver said his key. Oh, I mean, I'm not going to hurt anything taking these bolts off, we're fine. But thank you.
    36:53
    I cannot wait to clean this thing. Can never have enough tools for the job. That's probably right, Finslatter. Actually, it's definitely right. Could ever have too many tools.
    37:12
    When that freakin' Lee Switch adjuster came in the mail, I was like, these motherfuckers just made me buy the dumbest thing.
    37:22
    But I take it back, he said it's needed, so we'll use it. Are these the kind that pop? Oh yeah, they are.
    37:33
    Push in and rotate, boys. Push in and rotate. Yeah, Lord Squeak, we're good, buddy. We're good. What I really need is a trash can.
    37:49
    Come on, the white. Ew. I don like that these bulbs are set in so much You may need a leaf switch adjuster for the bumper switch I have a leaf switch adjuster That why this is awesome I have one We bought one
    38:16
    I thought it was BS, but it is not BS. After all. Okay. Let me put these back on. I'm going to take another photo. Actually, I took a photo of this. Sorry.
    38:35
    It's spooky how easy this stuff comes off that it's like only on there with these little rubber nuggets
    38:46
    Confirmed rubber nuggets Deadgasm, push in and rotate. Can you push in, drill and rotate? I'm going to push you in, drill and rotate. I'm going to push you in and rotate. Okay, here's the phone. Clamp, got it. Come on. Got it.
    39:36
    Got it, boys. My man, Furry. How you doing, stud? How you doing, Furry? Can this rubber come off right now? Oh, yeah.
    39:50
    Ladies and gentlemen, cheers. Thank you so much for coming. I love you. You're all incredible. Dude, that's an amazing lineup.
    40:02
    We have a baby cackling on location at a barcade about half an hour from here. A leaf switch adjuster to a limo?
    40:12
    It would just be a skinny L. That's all it would be. Cheers! Oh yeah, I have a cheersy mode! Yo, dead beer boys! Yo, Deadbeard boys.
    40:51
    Where are the hot jams? Me fun, we can't listen to any copyrighted music or else the VOD's going to get muted. and I want to look back on this. Yo, Wonko, I mean, sorry, Wolf9545, thank you so much. To buy new parts for Stars by Stern. What a stud. Thank you, dude. I appreciate it. Is the cup even on screen here anywhere? It's not.
    41:16
    Yo, let me look at this. Hold on. It was fine to put the cup in here somewhere. Ah, balls. Eh, we'll work on it tomorrow. Where's the cup? Two dudes, no cup. How do I handle the spinner? Yeah, as I mentioned, this is a lot of fun. I just need to know what the hell I'm doing. What do I do with the spinner? Do I have to detach it from the bottom?
    42:14
    That's a tater salad knife. It's a pretty random setup. F-14, hook, baby Pac-Man. Dude, going, that's awesome. That is a weird lineup of games, dude. I love it, though.
    42:26
    Weird lineups for the business. All right, that's all. Looking good, looking good. I can almost smell the dumb fish. Oh, this thing is like dense. That's not good. Not good at all. That thing's been racked or something a couple times. Yeah, look at that. See how bent that is? I wonder why, that's crazy. Novus all over We got to know this, boys. Don't know us if you don't know us. Don't know us if you don't know us. Look at that. Look at that. Fine scratch remover. Find all the bent parts. Booyah. Oh, you're back. Oh, you're back. Don't need him.
    44:17
    Confirm or deny, I need to get under the plate field to detach the spinner. That is a deny, Kemosabe. We can just drop it on the plate field, I think. Right? Is that a laser? What was that? Oh, here. Get ready!
    44:46
    It's always the same, always the same, so we're killing. This one? Get ready to get red... God damn it. Look at that.
    45:20
    Oh, I do have a ratchet set. Look at that. And, you know how I couldn't find any of my freaking, uh... bottle openers? They were all hiding in a toolbox.
    45:35
    We need a pair of tweezers. And you can squeeze these. That ain't gonna work. I dropped a screw in a light hole. It's the ratchet! it. We can just use this. It's not plugged in or anything so we're not going to electrocute ourselves. Why don't you ratchet that screw?
    46:50
    How is this crew just in here? Oh my god. Telescoping magnets are a godsend? That's what I'm seeing, man. This thing is like... I need to get my daughter in here.
    47:11
    I wish you could grab this thing. Got it. Thanks, corkscrew. You're the best. Where'd you buy the replacement parts? We got them from all over the place. We got some from Marco, we got some from Pinball Life, we got some from your mom's house. Your mom had a lot of them. But Marco and Pinball Life for sure. Alright, so we need to start taking a running list of things we need to shop out stuff more. We need a soldering iron, folks.
    47:49
    I need a soldering iron. I need a soldering iron. So these are the screws for the rail. The rail screws. Yeah, this pin works great. solder solder hey thanks Wolf thanks for posting it in It's always a stunning machine. Okay, let's unscrew that. Cool. Soldered, soldered. Suckers are not very afraid is da best. Yo, Torak, how you doing, man? Stuttering iron magnet on a stick. Steady your hands, Chip. Steady your hands. Do I look like I'm shaking? I'm fine, buddy. I'm fine, dog. Saw her. I hardly knew her. All right. So let's make sure we got a photo of this. We sure do. We're going to have to take another photo. Drink more beer for a steady hand. Absolutely. Dead tweet stream. I have not had a lot of coffee today. Just strangers walking by. That's fun. Alright, so this is the mid left. So we got the hot jams! Whoa!
    50:48
    Pterodactyl balls! It's hot today! Pterodactyl balls, thank you for maintaining your membership to the league for eight whole months. are amazing. Ladies and gentlemen, flipper some butts up, please. My boy. Show some love. How you doing, man? Good to see you, bud. Flippers and bits. It's like kibbles and bits, but not. Ooh, this is weird. Oh, damn, that's burnt AF.
    51:28
    Pinball whistling for the host. Cool thing is, if Jack's not doing a good job, he doesn't need a $150 soldering station. It's true.
    51:42
    It's bacon! Still tired from Chicago pterodactyl. Sorry it couldn't hang, buddy. It's been a very interesting week with people trying to break into my garage at home and stuff. It's been very hectic.
    51:57
    Not very fun. Yo, Wonko, can you... Actually, Wonko, here's the deal. Can you buy me a soldering iron and send it here, and I will PayPal you the money?
    52:17
    I need more of these in my area. Yeah, baby. Or actually, can you build a list of things, like the magnet and stuff like that and send it to me and I'll PayPal you the cash.
    52:36
    You definitely, you do this a lot so I trust your judgment on what you're purchasing. If this goes well, I'm going to ask Brad if he wants me to fix Stargazer.
    52:56
    He's probably not going to want me digging around in his stargazer, though. Oh, thanks, Wonko. Just send me that then, dude. Just send me the shopping cart, and I'll take care of it.
    53:09
    Ben Strauss, my man. Man, a lot of these are exactly the same. How does the 60 FPS look while I'm working on it?
    53:33
    You need that frame blending for when you're just not doing anything. Rip right flipper? Oh no! Should I get the driver out first? Alright, yo, I have, uh, I have what's-its for the thing, but I don't have the thing for the what's-its. So we gotta do this with a wrench. Man, bent screws are bent. Oh, dude, pinball is, that is dope! I love that game! 8 Ball Deluxe is the shit. You have sockets with no socket drivers. Dagster? You're too good, man. You're too good. I need you on my charades team, bub. You're fine? What is this? Crap. Oh, these leaves have, like, battery residue on them or something.
    54:51
    Next month will likely be Doctor Who. That's rad. Doctor Who is a game I can do without. It's a fun game. It's usually always broken. And it's another one of those games where you can do whatever you want on the game, but if you can nail one shot over and over again, you broke the game.
    55:14
    I cannot wait to wax this thing. That may be... I'm more excited about that than anything else. To wax and clean this.
    55:38
    Some serious funk on the playfield? Thanks, Gax. You're good to know, man. So much funk. You want a really good version of Lord of the Rings? Well, we'll see what happens when the Stern Arcade comes out. The Stern Pimple Arcade.
    56:07
    You know what's cool is I taught myself how to work on motorcycles back in the day, and And it was a unique journey that required a lot of Googling and YouTube.
    56:20
    And I'm hoping to add this to my repertoire. Are the inserts all flat? They feel pretty good, actually. I mean, from this era, about as good as you can expect. How does that sound?
    56:51
    They may be just a touch sunk, if anything. Exactly, Mifund, exactly. Google and YouTube win. Okay, then, nothing to do. Alright, good. Yeah, they're not lifted at all. They're not
    57:15
    even barely sunk. They're just just enough to maybe notice, but only with your finger. Yeah, the Pinball Arcade's working with Stern Pinball to come out with the Stern Pinball Arcade, and they're going to start releasing their new games digitally as well as physically. And I think that is a great idea.
    57:54
    When gasoline plays with matches. Okay. You get burned. Is what happens. When gasoline plays with matches.
    58:02
    I need like a hat. Playfield looks very dirty when comparing on small parts of the playfield to the large hole. Absolutely. This thing is a little filthy.
    58:13
    Okay. Burn! Burn! Burn! That was on the floor. Wait a second. Oh, I thought the poop fell down. Bar case should not have dress codes. That is very surely true. For MSI, it started off as VR. It's not going to be VR all the time. It's not going to stay VR.
    59:03
    Moving right along. Bear in mind, I believe this is an early 70s table. Oh, bear in mind, sorry. Where did you pick the table up from, Deadflip? It was donated. So it was for sale locally, and I posted it on the Deadflip Facebook page, and everyone jumped on it to buy it. But luckily, someone knew the guy selling it, I guess, was what the scenario was, and the guy bought it just to leave it here.
    59:40
    Why no naked pinball dough? That's very true. Why aren't we naked? I'm afraid to take this spinner off of here.
    59:55
    Because I don't know what's going to happen. So, do I leave this loose on the table? I mean, that's fine. I don't know.
    60:24
    Why donate to Pinball when you can... Yeah, what do I do with this? It's obviously... Oh. Never mind.
    60:34
    Got it. Broke it. Okay, you get to stay right here. Alright, so this is looking good. Do I need to take this plastic off here? Probably not.
    61:09
    We'll clean it, but I don't think we gotta take it off. Unless I need to take everything off. I think I gotta take it all off. Shit. How do I get under there? Pull it back? We got this! Internet, thank you for being here. Thanks for watching. Thanks for being awesome. I love you.
    61:31
    I'm so excited to clean the thing. Me fun. We have replacement, we have a flipper rebuild kit, all new rubbers, new wax and notice to clean it, new drop targets because these are all worn out, and, oh, new decals for the spinners. Don't forget to take off the apron and the flippers. Okay, cool. That's what I was looking for. Thanks, Tater. Okay, so top left, we're going to take a photo of this, or top right, sorry.
    62:10
    Clank. Got it. I got it. And we'll take a picture of you, too. The plastics can all be reconditioned and cleaned. Nice.
    62:24
    So if you're on a different stream, I think we have to take it all off. Oh, crap. I do have to take it all off. Take it all off! Need to remove the apron too. Alright, cool.
    62:37
    I shall do that, friends. Can confirm, take it all off. Okay, so this is the top right area. Top right. Take it off, baby.
    63:04
    You know, there is no, like, royalty-free, awesome, indie, just rock music. It's all this BS. Swamp.
    63:34
    Pew. Shop it out. Gotta shop it out. Then you take it out. Girl, put it in your mouth. Did you test the pin? Was it working? I did not test it because the power cable on this thing is disgusting, terrible, and I don't want to worry about it. So what we're going to do is just chop it out. Anyway, it's a good experience. Even if this thing doesn't work at all, this was a good experience. That's how I'm looking at this.
    64:12
    Even if it doesn't freaking work, this was still worth the time we put into it. So we still have to go to the hardware store too, for the power cable. I'm going to grab a piece of paper to make a note of all this crap.
    64:46
    Okay, so we're going to need... I'm going to write real lightly so... let's do it on the middle. We need... so power cord, solder, catalyst, scope, magnet, pull. Nova's confirmed. you may have Gavin have this. Yeah, Gavin's going to do a once-over on all of it.
    65:20
    We're going to have Gavin take a look at it. Trust me, folks, I'm in no way just going to, like, attack this and just say, Blah! Let's plug her down!
    65:30
    Hopefully it works! That's how things explode! So, here's... Kind of what sucks about the rubbers we bought.
    65:51
    Is everything's fine, everything's great. Gavin, you did this 200% wrong. Wait a second. Oh, no, we're good. We're good.
    66:18
    Okay, I got real confused there for a second. Yeah, zero fire, but I can't just make a quick playlist and play it through my Sonos, which is what I'm doing. I need to turn the instance up, please.
    66:30
    68, if you could, mate. Nothing you are doing on the playfield will cause the machine to explode. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking.
    66:52
    What if I jam my screwdriver into this power light socket then? Oh yeah, that will cause it to explode. I mean, if you're going to be a freaking moron about it, then absolutely.
    67:04
    For your side, we got Titan rubbers, so they're like a nice mix in between. between and if we don't like how it's gonna play the actual rubber set for this of just plain basic rubber is like eight dollars or something so give it a lick or two how many licks does it take to keep yourself He didn't even get to one.
    67:37
    Deadflipinfo at gmail.com. Wonko, deadflipinfo at gmail.com. Does Harbor Freight ship pretty fast? Because it's sort of time sensitive here.
    67:54
    Ben's fine. Please don't stick your shaft into anything. Oh. Oh, oh, never mind. Come on, baby. This one's six miles from you? Oh. Can I pick stuff up at Harbor Freight? Is that a thing? Can I go there? Oh man. Nice work, Jack. Nice work. There goes all the piles. Who knows where anything goes now?
    68:33
    Confirmed...confirmed trash machine now. Now this is a pinball screen. Eminem, how you doing, bud? You can't play these damn things for this many years and not eventually get your hands dirty. A harbour freak close by is gravy? Nice. Good enough.
    69:04
    Ah, I'm Jack Danger. Watch me break this pinball machine. You came back home safe and sound? Hell yeah, I'm having a good time. Glad you're okay.
    69:33
    Glad you're okay. I'ma shop, shop and shop, I'ma shop this shit up. I need a solder and I'm a shop shopping shop. I'm a shop this shit up. I
    69:45
    Need a solder and nine and if you don't gotta start over time. I'm gonna look child Your spit I spit fire ladies and gentlemen
    70:10
    Watch me break this pinball machine. Alright. You know what's funny is I have in-laws in town, and I should probably be doing that instead. And also maybe my voice shouldn't crack when I talk, because I'm freaking in my mid-thirties. This is where a socket would slay. I have a holochap too, it's a problem. Oh, that sucks, dude. Get better.
    71:18
    I don't know if you saw that, but I just righty-tidied lefty-looseyed. I was like, goodbye! Oh, yeah.
    71:27
    Righty-tidy lefty-loosey. Pinball game, pinball game, you lost shit on a pinball game. Zero fire. It's hard to talk about pinball and a pinball machine without accidental sexual innuendos popping up. You can fight it, and you should. but it slips out every once in a while.
    72:13
    So many photos. We're taking the gate off here. Good. La dee da dee doo doo doo. Oh we can leave that screw in there. Yeah, that's what's up. Leave the screw in. My man!
    72:50
    Don't fight it, be free, Jack. We're getting pretty close, boys. And girls. Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming.
    73:20
    G&R? Are you talking to Jaded? Jaded's got a G&R. Are you talking to Jay, dude? Jay just got a TNI. Stay with me here, bud. Stay with me.
    73:57
    Oh, it's hooked on there? That other one came off easy peasy. WTF man, come on. Please don't make me dip under there and have to unhook this crap.
    74:28
    I'm guessing that's not going to fall as easy as the last one, that's what I'm guessing. Okay, we'll come back to you, Spinner.
    74:40
    Thanks, Spinner. Now I gotta give you a freaking sticker because you're an idiot. Spinner. Right spinner. Spinners hook to a switcher and you flip it. Oh yeah, I know. The other one fell off pretty easy. This one has a little bit more of a hook to it. That's okay. We'll come back to that.
    75:26
    We will come back to it. Let's get the rest of this plastic off of here. Okay. Mid-right. Anyone Anyone Anyone Nobody Guys flippers and bands Flippers and bands
    76:28
    Clump. Heidi, clump. Okay, take the stupid rubbers off. There we go. Oh. One second, folks. Need another beer.
    77:01
    Let's move the grill. All right, we're dipping into the La Bonita's Little Something. Really good beer.
    77:23
    Yo, Jake Rubbers. Sticky rubbers, boys. Sticky rubbers. I feel the bug on the wall, I feel the bug on the wall. Girl, I feel a bug. A bug on the wall. You want to know what's on the wall, girl? It's a bug, y'all. It's on the wall. Keep all your beer at your studio. Does that make an effect right now?
    78:15
    Maybe. Maybe it's just commodities for clients. But it just turns out that a lot of clients don't like to come here. because there's too many pinball machines.
    78:35
    I still have clients, folks. Let me just say, some recent developments with discussions with people and stuff, this TwitchCon pinball thing is going to be amazing. and I can't wait for you all to see it or be there or play and all that fun stuff. It's going to be great.
    78:57
    It's going to be great. All right. Yes, I have a stupid tattoo behind both of my ears. Dank Rubbers.
    79:24
    Dagster, if you're going to TwitchCon, you can go play. I'm just trying to get partners there for this tournament we're doing.
    79:32
    So that we can get more eyeballs on pinball. And my channel, obviously. I'm not going to stand around being like, oh, it's Zooli for the good of pinball. No, I want my shit to be huge, too. Don't make a kid.
    79:49
    I'm kind of confused behind your ears. One is a drawing of a robot as a cowboy, and the other one is a drawing of a robot as a Native American.
    80:19
    Metamucil? More fiber? No. It's Bush League. They all hate me. Thanks, Steve. Bush League hype. Are you some sort of robot, Whistleback?
    80:42
    Wait, what just happened? Nothing? They look good from the little bit I can see. Oh, I see. Okay. You did say you want your shit to be huge. Fiber. Got it. Guys, how do I make my shit humongous? Metamucil? Is this good? Hmm? MetaMask? Fiber one? Confirmed fiber one? I need a smaller screwdriver. You want to talk bush league? I can't find my damn, uh, my damn, I have a weatherman.
    81:48
    Alright, that's not going to work. But my weatherman's missing. Where's my weatherman? Oh God, I'm pretty keen on this one.
    82:18
    I'm the president, please, who can cut me in? Put this on one. There you go. Nice and slow. That's a thug.
    82:42
    Nice and close. There you go, buddy. Well done! Bush League is related to Schlitz, yes. You're 18 on Monster Bash? Dude, nice!
    83:08
    How the fuck is this in here? Oh, there you go. Woo! All right. a photo. This seems pretty self-explanatory, but... I think about that way.
    83:48
    All you booty gobbledygooks! This isn't going to make anything fall off the bottom by taking this pot bumper off, is it?
    84:05
    This has to come off from the bottom. Yeah, okay. We're going to leave this here for now. We're going to leave that right where it is. Yeah, you just stay there, buddy. You're fine. You're doing great. All right, now we've got to take the apron off. Did something came... Did you hear a loud thud? Good enough.
    85:07
    Did you hear something crash around? What was it, Mark? Gorin, how you doing man? now on screen. It all happens really quick.
    85:43
    Is this connected? Okay. This one technically isn't mine but it's sort of like mine until I'm ready to sell it and then I got to give it back.
    86:03
    All right, I'm going. We'll do, man. What the hell are these? Take a photo, take a photo, take a photo.
    86:55
    Yeah before we do anything like put the apron back on and stuff, we're going to make sure these coils fire so we don't have to keep taking crap apart. Is the TV show still a
    87:07
    thing? Any info on that? Yeah, dude, Gorin, let me tell you something, man. I got an email about that maybe three hours ago. So you're not allowed to talk about it. All right. This about it. Alright, this doesn't want to unscrew. But yes. Oh, is it something to do with the bottom? Oh, it's probably a bolt or something. Pull the plastics above the arch too. Alright. Yep, there's a nut on the bottom of this. Alright you dumb spinner. Wasting my time you idiot spinner. Yeah man, things are still going really well with that. We're just trying to get the most cash for our, the most bang for our buck, you know what I'm saying? It's a bang for our buck scenario.
    88:34
    Thanks, Dorn. I appreciate it, man. Once, uh, like I said, I'm not allowed to say anything, but since Deadflip the show will be going on the road with me, you'll know what's going on when I'm like, Hey, I'm in Tennessee doing some stuff.
    89:04
    Yee-haw! That is correct, they will kill you. Never use power tools on the play field, good enough. Oh, they all hate me. Listen, dude, I don't know how to work on pinball machines either, man. So, I don't know what I'm doing. So, don't sweat it.
    90:21
    I just told so many people a secret. Okay, let's find out what this dude's doing. How the fuck? How the actual fuck is this thing on here?
    90:57
    They still love me now. Got it. Spinner! Alright, we got the spinner off. There's a random piece of wood. That's fun. Okay. So, cop bumper stays on. We gotta take the flippers off. We need... I've got just the tools. Of all the dumb tools I don't have, I do have one of these bad boys. Jack's got random wood.
    92:05
    Correct one, first try. Cut drinking straws and put them all over slings and switches? Why? What does that do?
    92:42
    The setup on the shepherd list works much better. Cool. Meosh, what's up, fart? Good to see you, dude.
    93:05
    Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow. Putting dead flip flippers on the thing? Oh, I didn't think about that. I need to have some made. I'm out.
    93:19
    That would be freaking hilarious though. 69 viewers, Kappa. Nobody go, nobody stay. I mean, nobody leave, nobody show up.
    93:49
    Okay. 69. What's up, dude? 70, god damn it Guys, I told you Squirrel nut ruined it Great job, buddy Confirmed ruined
    94:45
    If you like looking at my hairy arm, that's fun Alright, let's up these bad boys. Pin almost looks as dirty as Jack. Thanks guys. Wow, that's really nice. That's a really nice thing to say to me.
    95:21
    Find all these and tell everybody. Delegate plastic. Delegate plastic. Ah, Jables whooped, buddy, whooped.
    96:10
    Okay, this, I'm going to have to document. That is a long screw and a short screw. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
    96:44
    WWWWW. Short screw. They want $100 for new plastics on Cleopatra, but I only paid $150 for the machine. Funny how that works, huh? Funny how that works. This thing is filthy. I need a baggie.
    98:00
    I'm just going to use Novus and wax to clean these. I'm not going to go magic eraser. Oh, it's cool. Yeah, it does, man.
    98:07
    It's pretty neat. Pretty neat plastic. This one's gross, it had like a operator sticker on it or something. Ooh, what's this?
    98:17
    It's made in Korea. Uh, can anyone confirm what that is? It was just chillin' underneath the plastic.
    98:29
    Um, I'm just gonna put that right back where it went, where it came from. Yeah, we're just gonna leave that right there. Random transistor? That is a transistor. Random transistor. off one of the boards in the back box. Awesome! This is going to be a fun thing to work on!
    99:11
    We'll put that in the transistor, random transistor bag. Put that right there. Is there a transistor in there? There are no transistors in the plate build. No, I wouldn't imagine. Let's do this. There you go. It's easier to see what the hell I'm doing here. Oh, this plastic has a crack in it. That sucks. Cracked plastic, what is cracked plastic? Could be a lost spare of the previous owner. It looks like it's never been used. It's pretty pristine.
    100:24

    102:14
    You know, if this goes smooth, I could see me wanting to do this a lot more on screen. Because we got that F14 that's going to need some trough switch gloves.
    102:35
    Okay, we'll take this metal bracket off. Well, we'll recognize. Oh damn, a Clayfield swap? Yowza. Well, we'll recognize. What the fuck did this thing come off? This thing doesn't make any sense. We'll recognize

    Alright, let's pull down. So pull down, push down, pull back. Don't bend anything please. Jesus Christ. This thing is like in the wood. Oh, can you look through? There we go. You have to push it back first. Got it. Got it. So put in first like this, squinch it together. Got it. Squinch. The bottom's way more of a puzzle. Oh, that's it? That's it.
    105:13
    Oh God. This game is 15. Woo! Dammit, Derby. Alright, so this looks like it's going to suck. So let's take a photo of that. Wait, so there's two screws here. There's screws here. There's all the screws. Should we worry about what Jack dropped? I didn't drop anything. It was actually bubble wrap. It was bubble wrap.
    106:30
    Guys, I promise I'm not ultimate ding-dong action here. Something is magnetic right here. That's weird.
    106:55
    The bags just spill over. You know what? After analyzing everything, all the parts look exactly the same. No joke, they look crazy exactly the same.
    107:25
    Pictures, pictures, pictures, yeah baby. I'm trying to take as many as I need just to, I'm not swapping a play field but we're just taking everything off. Making sure all these, okay so there's that. I'm going to take a photo of this to know that this is the bottom piece. Clamp. clamp
    107:57
    okay you stay there with your screws because if all these screws are the same we're gonna package them all together
    108:19
    Wee-pant-pant. Okay. Same screws, same screws height. Cool. Retrocade, I have done that before, yes and I could do that right now I didn't now that I'm thinking about it
    109:07
    So if I could take this camera and get it in there. We're still learning how to do this. Zero, what's up, buddy?
    109:50
    Jack, so how about that Cubs DJ that got fired for playing Smack My Bitch Up? Oh, really? I don't know, dude. The night he forgot to remove the lapel mic before we were going to the bathroom trip was bad enough. Yeah, that was, uh, guys, we're fine, okay? We're fine. People do stuff, you know? Calm down. Let's take another picture of this, shall we?
    110:40
    Uh, Retro, we're gonna make this baby shine. So that I'm guessing is Is there something underneath? It's a bag.
    111:08
    Okay, I figured there was something underneath. Let's move you. Figured there was something underneath.
    111:19
    Alright, lock you into place. Can't wait to see you play it like a pro. Dude, I'm excited. I'm excited.
    111:28
    Over the moon about being able to shop this bad boy out. It's gonna shine. It's gonna be shiny clean.
    111:45
    Did Jack drop something on the playfield? Nope. Jaden, are you just trying to get me in trouble? What's going on? You just here to get me in trouble?
    112:01
    Right there. Boom boom. Okay, so this thing has soldering points on it, so we're going to leave that on for now. Does this have to come off? Probably. I'm here to supervise. Thanks, David. Retrocade, there's no head. There's no head on this. We don't have the head on here yet.
    112:53
    Yeah, well if you can 3D print a lot of stuff, you can print a lot of stuff. 3D print a lot of stuff. Cool, this thing's neat.
    113:16
    Alright, so. Oh, right on Retro. Wonko says I would not remove anything else, so we're good here. We can replace these ding-dongs. So, We're good to start cleaning this then, yeah?
    113:37
    I mean, this thing's filthy. So let's put it back in. Oh, excuse me. Time to clean, boys! Novus. Rotate.
    114:20
    This thing is actually kind of clean. So how do you keep score with the heavy Dexter I love you dude I love you Dexter So how do you keep score
    114:36
    Is this thing just... This thing's just filthy on its own. I feel like we're going to need more Novus than what I have picked up.
    114:51
    I'm just rubbing certain parts to see what we're feeling here. So those are just swirls in paint, good to know.
    115:02
    That's actually coming out clean. Yeah, this game's actually pretty clean for its age here, holy moly. Let's find a super dirty spot. Like right here. thing's actually super clean. You will remove paint trying? Alright, so we won't try to do anything hectic. Oh my god, yeah, look at that. Wood! Yeah, the numbers of Novus, I only got number one because yellow, but I don't think you need Novus One.
    115:55
    It's like weird stains in this thing. All right, so we're going to start bottom left, work our way in this direction here.
    116:06
    The yellow's going to look so dope. Yeah, baby. We've even got some really red. So we bought some flipper rubbers. Check this out.
    116:22
    We bought red flipper rubbers to put on the flippers. Okay. I thought those looked pretty good next to this red. But they also sent us glow-in-the-dark green, which is what it is. But then they also gave us the thin. they came out with these thinner rubbers. They sent this orange, which holy balls, does that look good. If that is coming right down onto the flipper, that might look fresh to death. Yo, Steph, what's up, buddy?
    116:56
    That might look fresh to death. Orange for sure. That's what I'm thinking, man. that orange looks so damn hot.
    117:13
    So I'm just going to take a pressure washer to this thing, I think. I don't know where to put these. Where's that trash can?
    117:33
    So, so he doesn't glow in the dark for my Ghostbusters. Dude, they're yours. Come get them. That thing is dirty. Yeah, it's filthy, bud. Actually, it's kind of dirty.
    117:47
    All right, take it back. It's filthy. I'm just going to put the Novus directly on here, and we're going to rub it in.
    118:00
    Oh, ouch. That hoit. Now comes the fun part to watch, I guess. I don't know. Novus 3 is like sandpaper, man. That is not stuff you want to use.
    118:27
    Novus 3 is like deep scratch removal. Do you think I tilted? That's fine. It's a good thing we got a million of these, huh?
    118:57
    What's great is Pinball Life even sent me a little note on there that says, Hi, Jack! Ouch. What a bunch of ballers.
    119:11
    That hurt my finger, yo. I think I'm gonna bleed. Oh yeah, that's hot. There's a Novus 4? There's no way there's a Novus 4. Why would it exist? Is it just rocks?
    119:38
    Is it just rocks inside of a bottle? Come on, Switch. Be cool.
    120:05
    I use Novus One for weekly cleanings and machines on Rufus to wipe off the loose dirt. Novus Two once a month. Okay. So, should I Novus One this thing first and then Novus Two, Wonko?
    120:21
    Just to get the initial dirt off? I can feel a heartbeat. You're happy, you're happy! Yes to Novus One first, alright. Yes to the Novus One. Yes Jack, I've tried to tell you three or four times now. Wonko, I'm telling you, I can only do so many things. Novus won first, gotcha. Novus won! The first Novus. Magic eraser with simple green sounds like you're begging to ruin the machine. That's just me, I don't know. Alright, we'll just this in really quick to get it off the play field a little bit and then we'll drop the Novus Uno on it. Novus Uno. Filthy, nerdy, dirty. Wubba lub, wubba dub, wubba dub, wubba Alright, here we go. Novus One time.
    122:09
    Did I just douse the machine? Did I just spray this all over the table? I've actually never used Novus One before.
    122:22
    Hoppy, you hoppy, you hop! Shake it before you use it. Just spray it, my man. Oh man! Goodbye dirt! Alright, we gotta start in our corner here. Yeah, we're using these little gauze pads which work really well. Alright, cool. So let's get back down Down to business down here. This area is looking good.
    123:04
    Move on over here. Get some of the grime out. Move this Mr. Walkman here. Jerry Walkman, I believe, is new.
    123:18
    Oh gross. Ouch. I can see myself in that reflection. Thank God. Ouch. I can feel a harpy.
    123:55
    There's going to be a little bit of paint coming off it looks like. It's a little bit of paint. Just a tiny little bit of paint. Alright, we gotta get into the dingy area here. Oh yeah. Microfiber. You're a dirty bird, aren't you? You're a dirty bird. I'm trying to spray that on the cloth and it's literally just blasting my finger.
    124:51
    I can feel your heartbeat. Works like magic on clear coated machines. Clean room wipes. Oh yeah, looking good, looking good, looking real good. So we're just using Novus 1 to get the base dirt off and then we're going to go with Novus 2 and clean it up. strong Lord Squeak. He can't draw 6% Yikes, kid.
    125:41
    Waaah Wow Oh, toothbrush comes in handy? Don't forget the shooter lane. Yeah, my man. I can feel a heartbeat.

    127:58
    It's pretty hilarious. I'm going to go ahead and close the door. that white back to that color. That's fine. I'm not too worried about that. I'm not too worried about that. I just want this thing to shine. I want it to look like someone took care of it, you know? I want it to look like someone took care of it. We want it to look good. Oh hey cat. Capa, capa, capa.
    129:25
    Easy leak. Easy switch. As long as it's clean it'll take right, yeah. I'm just going to spill all my parts onto the floor.
    130:12
    Oh yeah baby, that's... look at that. Look at that shine. Dang, gauze, you look good. It already looks a ton better, hell yeah. I agree. Once we get the Novus 2 and then some wax on here, oh ho ho ho, I started. I started. So I do this with each of my machines en route every month. Nice dude. Thanks dude.
    131:01
    Oh, every six months, cool. Well, looks like we got a new hobby every six months. Maybe we'll take a little break shot of her.
    131:19
    See if she's gonna kill us. Push that dirt down in the cabinet. How much does a route machine get in a month? That's a great question. Is that something you'd be willing to answer? I know it's subjective, but to the location and such. I wouldn't mind knowing that myself.
    131:58
    Who farted? That's what she's saying. Who farted? Confirm the Who Farted song. Who farted? You do a full topside every six months? Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. That seems bonkers. 6 to 800 a month right now? Dude, that's great.
    132:37
    They eventually pay for themselves, huh? Eventually. This puff under cap is freaking filthy. Oh yeah, get that off of there. Oh yeah. Dude! She's shining bright like a diamond.
    133:16
    Shining bright like a diamond. Carlos, he just gives me a headache. A surgeon is coming your full name job really needs concerns… Oh yeah, right there, that's good. You can't see that, but that was a dramatic improvement right there. That was hot.
    134:09
    It's like a turd right here. What is this? It's like a turd. Did that come from the ceiling? Is that my turd?
    134:21
    Oh, it's coming up. Got it. Cool. Alright, so that was Novus One. Now it's time for Novus Dose. I got tired of working a full-time job for a third of minimum wage. Yowza! Yeah, man. I could see that sucking a little bit.
    135:09
    The Wapachi, the Wap, Wap. All right, start it from the top. Oh my god, that orange is popping now! Oink, oink, oink. I have a feeling my fingers are going to start hurting. Alright, leaf. Thank you.
    136:42
    Okay, leaf. I can't wait to wax this thing. Holy moly. I'm just going to give it a once over up here to make sure I get all the novice in. It's looking a little dull in places.
    137:59
    So the wax is going to make this thing just freaking shine, I'm guessing. It's just going to light up.
    138:26
    Yeah, I got that blitz. We'll be getting into the internals of this table today. Yeah, Marlon, we just stripped all the parts off.
    138:38
    We just stripped all the parts off. Now we're cleaning it because it was filthy. I have never waxed a table before, no.
    138:47
    Is there anything I need to know? Confirmed, Wonko's about to tell me something I have to do that I can't do.
    139:12
    Get your plunger out. My tubes are cold. My man. Have you waxed a car before? Circular motions. Yo, Berryman, what's up?
    139:29
    Pops are important to clean. There is no under part to this pop bumper. I can't really, I can zoom in to show you, but the pop bumper doesn't have a bottom. It's an empty hole.
    139:44
    It is a chasm. for the gathering. Watch the karate kid before waxing. Can do. You wax in a circular motion.
    140:18
    Not that I'm waxing. I don't know how to wax, but I have seen the gratitude. Mylon, it's how you been, man?
    140:55
    Stop coming off paint. On the grind today, Claude Vaughn stroking my way through some serious code. Dude, so is that your job there? You're like an engineer, by the way? I guess I never really asked what you did.
    141:37
    Or maybe I did ask, and then I completely spaced. Oh my god. This game is going to be so freaking beautiful.
    141:58
    This is what I call nothing flipping. Skyline, what's up? Keyboard cowboy, I like it. Yeah, Playfield looks great on this game.
    142:13
    This song is still... is everyone just remixing the same... crap? Vigo creepin' over your shoulder. He goes a real piece of crap, ladies and gentlemen.
    142:44
    It does look good. When did you get it? We got this a week or two ago. Chicago house in San Francisco? My man. No, I don't think I have.

    144:41
    I think we're good. I think we're ready. Alright. Until you take a knuckle off, that's what I'm looking at, man.
    144:54
    Oh, it's shiny, look at it. Look how shiny it is. Wax will take a while. You need to let it haze before you buff it out. Okay, cool.
    145:30
    So, I'm going to put wax on, and I'm going to wax off. Wait, I just looked at something that I saw I had to fix, and I can't remember what it was.
    145:48
    Everything looks great. Nothing. Okay. It looks so good. Okay. So, here we go. All right, Wax. Do your thing.
    146:09
    That's a beer break? I agree. Wax things against the U.S. Waxing may be good for tomorrow. What time is it? 7-11? You know, let me call Laura real quick and see what she's about.
    146:30
    Let's see. Hey, bub. I might be super late. this is too fun. Swing by if you want. Okay, cool. All right. So here's the deal. Do not try and wax with the little gauze pads. All right. Good to know. So I do need a microfiber cloth. You need a microfiber cloth. All right. Good. I'm glad you said that. I'm glad you said that. Never mind. I need a microfiber cloth from the garage. I bought one and I didn't bring it. Oh man, this thing feels good. Should I? Why is this all wobbly? That's That was fine. I can feel your heartbeat. Jack ain't got that microfiber. The list I sent you has a full pack of them included. My man.
    148:03
    The plunger tip. We've already got a new one of those. Somewhere. Pour in. Hold on. Where are those flippers?
    148:29
    Yeah, by the way, these flippers look dungy, dude. Look at these. Look at these flipper... One of them is metal.
    148:44
    The other one is hollow plastic. Look at these flippers, folks. These were on the game. Okay, so I need to buy flippers.
    149:04
    Mother fudge. They're not even the same. The shoe and bat is original. Look at these. That is ridiculous. blip blip blip blip blip blip all right so Wonka before I wax this thing discrepancy detected before I watch this thing are you are you uh I only need a microfiber cloth right one maybe two and I'm going to wax this thing,
    149:46
    let it haze, buff it out. Do I wax it twice? Once? Twice? Yeah, the fat one is the original one. There's still some dingy places I could clean in here too.
    150:04
    Like I can feel your heartbeat, you know. One for waxing, one for wax removal. Okay. So I bought a handful of microfiber cloths for washing my motorcycle, and I don't use all the cloth, so I think that's what we're going to do. Well, you know, I think we're done here, folks. If I can't wax this thing, I don't know what else I can do right now. I don't have a soldering iron.
    150:38
    We could try to replace the drop targets really quick. You know, let's do that. Let's replace the drop target.
    150:46
