TL;DR

Dead Flip restores vintage pinball machine with new flipper mechs and tilt mechanisms from Pinball Life.

Summary

Dead Flip streams a restoration workday on a Starboard pinball machine (appears to be from the late 1970s), installing new flipper mechs, tilt bob, and replacing bulbs. The host visits Pinball Life, receives parts including custom 3D-printed flippers from Matt Scott Danesi, and documents the detailed technical work in an informal, chat-interactive format. The stream focuses on hands-on restoration work rather than game analysis or industry news.

Key Claims

  • Matt Scott Danesi is developing new 3D-printed flipper designs with improved durability using a new plastic compound and manufacturing process

    high confidence · Host states Matt Scott is 'working on a new method and a new plastic that he's going Tee'd Off be printing with' and is building 'old style and new style' flippers

  • New tilt mechanisms in modern pinball machines are the same design that has been used for decades

    high confidence · Host demonstrates the new tilt bob and states 'This mechanism you see here is in there brand new machines that are out today. And this game came out in there, like, the late 70s.'

  • Graphite tilt rings are preferred over metal for tilt mechanisms

    medium confidence · Host discusses coil sleeves and notes 'The old ones were metal. The newer ones are graphite.'

  • Goo Gone is an effective adhesive remover for pinball restoration

    medium confidence · Host uses Goo Gone to clean residue and notes 'Goo Gone is legit, man. It gets the Goo Gone.'

  • Coil timing for flipper mechanisms must open at approximately the last 20% (80% engagement) to avoid burning the coil

    high confidence · Host and chat confirm 'It's opening at like 80%. Too late and you cook the coil.'

Thank you. What's up, Amosa? Your Rooting Magic has caused this stream to go live. How dare you. Where's my fun box of parts? Tater, what's going on, baby?
1:41
Tater and Sad Girl. Uh, no, we still have to attach the head and all those cables, so I'm not sure we're going to fire it up today, maybe tomorrow. Or maybe we'll actually play some pinball tomorrow. I don't know.
2:00
How's the delay? Looks good. Cool. How was the pilgrimage? It was awesome, EP. This is where I do electrical work and try not to get electrocuted.
2:45
Hell yeah, most of us said beat up, dude. Let me get my bag of knitties. Oh, right here. I hung out at Pinball Life for a while. It was pretty rad.
3:04
We're going to be on the homepage today? I did hang out and chat with Terry. It was rad. That dude is amazing. That was my first time there, which is stupid. Or was he busy being a grump?
3:18
Handsome-ass pinball table, even handsomer man. Aw, Slice Major, love you, buddy. So here is what pinball life hooked us up with. I wanted to pay, but we got hooked up. So props to Terry.
3:35
Props to Terry. What's up? All these wires everywhere. props to wires everywhere. What is this? Sorry, there's like wires freaking everywhere. Alright, cool. We're good. So, number one.
4:06
Brand new tilt bob, ladies and gentlemen. Check it. brand new freaking tilt bob. So we got our new tilt bob mesh.
4:19
Flippers. Now people on the internet were like flippers with no backs. I'll explain to you why these are flippers with no backs. In a second. Oh, they go on to shoes. That's the explanation.
4:32
Varying flippers coil sleeves. I'm sorry, varying coil sleeves of different lengths and taper. Is it metal or graphite?
4:45
And then this bad boy. Sniff, sniff, sniff. It. What do you mean, it, Wonko? The, uh, the tiltmech? I don't know.
5:05
Yummy. You have two shoes I do have two shoes yes Pretty we just got to take this one off. This is like snapped shattered
5:38
Come on, Tara. That's a dirty rag. The old ones were metal. The newer ones are graphite. The rings are different. Oh, right on.
5:54
Well, I told Tara what I was using it for, so we'll see. We will see. All right, so we're going to install some flappers. Actually, what time is it? 4.30? We'll give it a minute. Let's sit and chat. for a little bit. I talked to the dude that's making these flippers, but custom for dead flip. My boy Scott Dinesi.
6:38
How was everyone's day? What's the ETA in those slippers? Amosis, though, Scott said that he's working on a new method and a stronger plastic that he's going to be printing with. Dude, hell yeah, EP, absolutely.
6:57
He has a new process and a new plastic that's more durable that he's going to be printing with. Durability wasn't necessarily a big issue. It was because we broke a little bit of a sliver off the top of one of our flippers that he had printed out. So he's fixing that. And also, he's building, oh yeah, the old style and the new style.
7:27
And what else? Something, something is going to be good. Oh, I also got word from... If you do custom VF caps to go with the slippers, I really should, man. I'll talk to Scott. I mean, he's putting them up. Or I know Measlemods wants to work with me on something. Maybe we'll have Measlemods do that. That'd be fun.
7:49
So let's clean these shoes off. Let's clean these shoes off. Alright, there's a few things happening today. We're going to put the new flippers on, we're going to put the new plumb bob on, we have coil sleeves that we're not going to work with right now. We will in the future. We also have, we're going to put the new plug on the end of the cable over there. Outside of that, we have to put the head back on, connect everything properly, and hopefully it works.
8:26
We're into the archival stage of the table mod now. What's up, buddy? No, we've done a lot of soldering underneath. We rebuilt the flippers, rebuilt the pop bumpers, rebuilt the drop targets, put new drop targets in.
8:41
Going to do something with the pop bumpers soon. About to put the flippers on. And change the insert. like well Slinky Tater Salad Tater, I'm gonna need you to remind me of that like five or six times dude, please. I love you.
9:06
Change the bulbs, that's gonna take a while. Good shit, educated, we got it. Yo, Stinkface, how you doing stud? How are ya? Thanks for coming. I love you too, pal. I love you too. Oh, these are original Stern shoes. You can see, let's see, Ray... See that? That's awesome. And let's watch a grown man rub it out.
9:47
Please. How's everything look? Is everything still smooth and awesome and beautiful? Yeah. September 29th, I get to order my first pin. Hell yeah, St. Faze, what are you going to get, buddy? What are you ordering?
10:13
You'll see the new flipper bat fits just like that. Ta-tang! I'm glad that even though that other flipper was busted, you don't move as fast as a pinball this time. You think a ghostbuffer's nice, dude?
10:36
Yo, Ms. Zombie, how you doing, babe? Babe? We finally got flippers. I drove all the way out to the frickin' Burbs to go to Pinball Life. So I could pick up a new Tilt-Bob.
10:52
New flipper bats for my shoes. Those will go right in there. Come on. Come on, baby. Come on, baby, get in there.
11:20
Come on, baby. Frito-y! What's going on, bud? What commandeer training is there, buddy? Vet 1? I'm so confused.
11:37
You just got dinner in the oven? Aww yeah! Dinner's in the oven, boys. I hope you brought enough for everybody. These are filthy little critters, huh?
11:54
So we're going with the thin orange on this. People said to soak it. I'm fine. I don't need to soak nothing. It just goes on like that.
12:08
Oh! Looks like a damn creamsicle. Those are going to look so freaking hot right there. I need beer in my oven. What?
12:24
If you catch what I'm saying. No. Put their shoes in the tumbler for 48 hours. That would be exciting. We're going to watch all these metal pots tumble.
12:39
Yeah, this orange is like beyond on point. Look at that. Oh, my God. Perfect. I just want to eat it. Okay. So that was stupid of me to do. Put this down.
12:54
Oh my god, these are beautiful! Those are gonna look so fresh! Look how fresh that looks. Damn, oh damn, oh damn, oh damn. You know what this, you know what this dream needs? I think I need to up the contrast to the camera. That's alright, whatever. We do need to turn the music up. Can I play the other thing? Are you... Cosmic Boot, this is my studio where I only work on and play pinball machines. That's all we do here. There's a whole green screen set up over there for when I play difficult pinball. There's machines all over the damn place. I could plug in my room camera to show you what's going on, but I have not. The stars are looking pretty darn good. Thanks, Pinball Wiz. It's really getting there, man. It's really getting there. All right, we've got We've got to bolt down these feet, or bolt down the flippers.
14:22
There's one thing I want to do really quick. Does the playfield look kind of low quality? I think it does.
14:34
Let me try something. I feel like the plate feels quality has dropped in thickness here. Maybe not. I may be looking at his trunk. I just realized I got spaghetti on my shirt. Thanks dude. Keep it classy buddy. Looking good. Keep it classy, buddy.
15:14
Lookin' classy. Alright, uh, there's... Okay, here you go. Keep it bigger. We're gonna up the contrast with the cam just a little bit because it's a little low for my face. Oh, I already did. Never mind. We're good.
15:34
Cool. Alright. I'm gonna trip on this 50-50 chord. So we're gonna bolt those in. Alright, we need a piece of paper so I can make a list.
16:06
You're scared you'll break it and not be able to fix it? Showbot, honestly, at the end of the day, everything has been broken and fixed on a pinball machine and has been recorded on the internet. There's no reason to freak out at all. Alright, so, same here, pinball machine, steam, hard to fix. This has been easy peasy. Alright, so, flippers. Tilt. Um, underbowls.
16:43
Coil sleeves we're not going to worry about. Oh, can you see that? It's all good. I don't care. Um, I think that's it. Underboob? Spinner decals too? Yeah.
17:16
Sunjac, water bombs. Yeah, I'm okay. I don't need those. We don't have a way to accept packages, so it's not the end of the world. Alright. Crap. Goo Gone. That's what I meant to grab. Son of a bitch. I meant to grab Goo Gone. Um... Damn it. Damn it, damn it, damn it. What do I do about this? Where like... I think I'm going to repaint this. Where some of the paint left and then re-steal this piece of metal. Because some of it is broken off. You can barely see it, but some of it has rubbed off a little bit.
17:54
All right, let's tighten these on, shall we? Remote stream to the GoGum store? You know what? Hold on.
18:03
Internet, talk amongst yourselves. I'm going to run right next door. There's a bodega right next door.
18:17
Thank you. That didn't go well. The people next door, I was trying to explain Goo Gone, and they kept trying to sell me glue. They didn't go over very well.
19:52
So we're good. Glue gone. Glue? You need glue. I don't need glue. I don't need that glue. Where is my thing?
20:11
I'm excited to put this on. This is for sure. I retch a little at the orange stinking thought of the smell of Goo Gone anywhere. The orange stinking thought. You don't like Goo Gone?
20:22
Goo Gone is legit, man. It gets the Goo Gone. Whoa. So once we do this, we'll get to this in a second. Once we do this, oh, someone said spinner decals, correct.
20:58
I pounded a five hour energy for some dumb reason, I'm like freaking out. Literally, what the hell did we just say? Spinner decals.
21:13
When I worked at an arcade, we called that stuff enog. Oh. Enogood. That's cute. That's cute, EP. Just because it's funny to say. Enogood.
21:33
Enogood. Yeah, I'm freaking out, folks. I'm freaking out. Hold on. I need a second with my body. I need my body to calm down. Let's clean this.
21:48
Ooh, I'm buzzing, baby. I'm buzzing. It's Goo Gone all the way down? Yeah. Goo Gone is like... It's like cleanest, you know? It created its own market with its own name. It's like, hey, go get me some Kleenex. Well, what kind? Oh, I don't know. Not the Kleenex, friends. That's usually expensive.
22:24
How much for a PIM refurbishing service if you travel to Florida? You know what, Malt? Let's go, buddy.
22:30
I think if you pay for me to stay in Florida for a week, I will shop your pin out, and we'll just get drunk and have good time. Cosmic Boost, I'm in Chicago, Illinois.
22:44
The home of pinball. Chicago, Illinois. Am I using the right right? Yeah, it seems freaking disgusting.
22:54
Where are you located, Cosmic? We play pinball, too. We just, uh, we made a conscious decision to work on this game.
23:10
The guest room's trying to pay for you to stay. Little annoying, what's up? How you doing, stud? I've been having a very serious problem with my streaming computer.
23:24
And that problem is every time I shut it down and open it back up, all of my settings for streaming are gone. The layout, the cameras, the graphics, the settings, all of it's gone. So when I come here, I have like 15 minutes to set it all up, and it takes 25.
23:45
Southern Cali, to be exact. Nice, dude. Cosmic, if you type exclamation point pinball, there's a lot of good pinball out by you, dude. A lot of good pinball out by you. What opinion? Yeah, it's super crap.
24:09
Put it this way. Have work in a couple hours at the happiest place on earth. Oh, my man! Nice! Taco Bell? I love Taco Bell. at the Happy Hip Taco Bell. Orange County, huh?
24:32
Alright, so we're going to flip this over here because we have to lift up the playfield to bolt down the flippers.
24:43
Yo, Nave, how you doing, stud? I'm going to kill myself on this discussion for you. That is hard to turn.
24:53
Hollywood has the best pinball? Heck yeah, Cosmic 82. Go to 82. There's other places also, but I have acquaintances that work at 82, so that's the only one I tout. Get it tout. 82 dude, sick!
25:14
Uh, there was one other thing that we were missing. I don't want to do and the coil sleeve that's not it I do want to replace all the sleeves goog on decal what the hell was that last thing I needed to do that here Someone having sex on my pinball machine? There's a good view right there. Cool.
26:26
Duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh. Did you pick the chime yet? No, I did not. Uh, it needs a screw.
26:42
Oh, I think I found it. Is that it? That's it! Ha ha ha! It's fuses and... It's all too quietly, huh?
27:14
It's a little wubby, that's okay. The flipper mess... Oh, the new flipper mess! Finally, we get to put these in.
27:26
I was JK. Okay. So we agreed that it's on the inside, yeah? Yes, that is what we agreed. Okay, we don't need the spring just yet.
28:05
Come here, come here. Don't put that collar on us. Well, you put me on upside down. Get on there, you dildo.
28:40
There we go. Alright, it has to go in first. Alright, we need a spring. Are there transformers getting in here now? because of all the wub wubs. Too much wub wubs. I've created a problem. Okay, that goes all the way in.
29:37
Jeff, take the coil stop off. Remove the coil. Put the plunger... Oh, no. We're good, man. It's in. Got it. Yo, fail games. Thanks for the host, bud.
29:59
Shut the bowl. Oh yeah, oh yeah, we did it. We did it. New flipper mechs, holy moly, it's sexy. I just like doing things the hard way.
30:39
I do have to make sure this is up against the pin. There we go. We are up against the pin, folks. Come on, stick that.
31:03
What are you beefing on me for, bud? Are we beefing right now? Beautiful. The cup that has the bits in it,
31:24
it's part of a third party website, man. This makes donating more fun. Donating more fun. That's what their slogan should be. It truly is way more fun.
31:40
Cool. Yep. Nailed it. Demented. What's going on, dude? It's Amazon. Fail games. How you doing, bud? Boom! It works. We fixed it. The cup is operational, ladies and gentlemen. Hmm.
32:10
Now, what do you think this bag is for? Um. Yeah, I don't know. Oh, that was for the, uh, okay, it's for the coil stops, for the, yeah, we're good.
32:37
Once you have the plunger linked tight, push the plunger all the way in and make sure that the end switch...
32:47
It's opening it. Fully, but at the last possible second. Looks good. Well, if I have to readjust him, that's okay.
33:14
How early is it opening? Let's see. But zero to a hundred. It's opening at like 80%. It's opening at 80%. Too late and you cook the coil. Yeah, it's opening at about 80%. I'm Roku. Good to see you. How you doing, bud?
33:54
Should be okay? Yeah, cool. There's actually pins on the table that are helping decide like how... Come on. I'd like to do shit the hard way. Of course you knew everything you I'd like to do shit the hard way. Of course you knew everything you were talking about. There's little switches here. So you see these little leafy things here? If you look in between them, they're connected. And at the very last minute, there's a piece of metal that pushes them apart like that. And you need it to happen at the last possible second apparently, or else you're going to the coil right here. The coil is what fires off the signal for the flippers to go. And then when it separates, it goes to low voltage, if I'm not mistaken. Am I saying that right, guys. Come on you dirty little bitch. Me fun, thanks for the bit bud. There we go. Nice and tight. Coriolis two voltages, a flip and a lower hold voltage. Yeah, that's what I was...
35:28
Oh, shit. Right there. Cool. So I farted! I farted! No one wants a burnt coil. Exactly. If we can avoid breaking anything on this machine, we'll be in a good place.
36:18
You know what? I think I tightened the shoe down on the flipper too much. Parts will never not be funny. 100% correct. I think I parted it. That scared the shit out of me. And the spring wind somewhere. Great. I thought something like electric fired off. Yep, all new coil sleeves. Well, that sounded bad. Hey, ya fucko! There was just some mechs falling down. What He's saying about not breaking his foot.
37:23
All right. Now, we have a rope spring around here somewhere. That could have gone anywhere. So this fell out, and the spring went that way somewhere.
37:46
Time to go hunting. Help me! Ten hours later, I found the spring! Yeah, we might just have to forge ahead and do something else until we find that spring. Because that's what you could be literally doing.
38:33
Where do you think it went, boys? Where do you think it went? Shout out to all the ViewBots here. Hey, what up ViewBots? How you doing guys?
38:44
Thanks for botting. Thanks for viewbotting. We're looking for a spring. Oh, found it. And we're back. Yo, hello from Poland. Hey, what's going on? Hello from Chicago. It went on the floor. Alright, there we go. So, let's get back to it, shall we? I can feel you helping! I love that all these playlists are like, let's take the same sentence.
39:37
I found it. Technically, you weren't lying. You were correct. It was on the floor. You are, you're mostly right.
39:46
Destroy this human. He's operating on my brother. We shall remove your robot penis and replace it with a bigger robot penis.
39:58
In Poland, we have a knight. Whoa! Is that coil-taper? Your mom's paper. What? I don't know what that means. Wonko, come on, buddy. You know I don't know this stuff.
40:18
Yeah, that was right. If you bought a cruise with a bigger robot penis. No, I think we're good. Yo, cooking. Cooking.
40:37
I can feel your heartbeat. You about need to compensate. Big words scare him. What's tupperware? What are a tupperware? Cool. Cool. We're in. So flippers have been installed. Is that like Tupperware? You mean taper wands? Okay, we're going to take a look at our Chime mech here. Flippery flippers!
41:55
Oh, there's coil sleeves missing off of... Oh, weird! Wait, is it close enough? Maybe, maybe I can't tell. Yo, what's going on? Yay, Slippers! Got it. I do not understand these chimes. So what we're going to do is take off the big one to try to detect what's going on here.
42:43
Okay, number one, I can tell that we need a washer. And this thing is a spacer. So that's what this is. Good. I'm glad it was inside the cabinet. We found the spacer for that chime. I think that's all we needed. That's a bigger... Alright, cool! Big fit.
43:10
Is this cleaning to try and make it sound different? Um, maybe. Something ran across the middle of the screen.
43:30
Yeah, I think you're going crazy, dude. Also please don't freak me out. This should be kind of loose. Maybe not super loose. Yeah, a little looser than that.
44:22
I think it had something to do with the resub notification slightly being borked yesterday. Yeah, there was there's a little bit of weirdness going on yesterday with push alerts
44:43
But that's okay give a tip and donations yes, I do there is a To take This guy's missing a washer. This is like up and off.
45:16
Okay, that's not right. You need a washer, buddy. I don't know that I have one laying around. there's probably one inside of the cabinet though.
45:30
What? A little annoying filling it up. What's up, stud? Thank you, buddy. You're the man. Fill the cup with your butt. Get it up.
45:45

46:50
This feels right. Okay, what's next on the list? Flippers. Tilpout. $20 from Ben Dragoon. Why is there any preaching out? Like, my thing doesn't even update anymore, dude. Hello, stream. Good to see you here. Aw, thanks, dude. Why didn't it talk? I'm so sad.
47:19
Very sad. much said. Ooh, Jackpot! You know what we're going to do? We're going to open this up here.

Thanks for coming back. I told you we'd continue working on it. Yo, Busty, 3,000. Good night. Love you. Love you in love with you.
48:05
Aren't you terrified that painting will steal your firstborn? Vigo? Yo, Vigo's harmless, man. He's just a pinball enthusiast. He's not here to screw anything up. If anything, he's been helping me.
48:18
Okay. a tilt-bop. So let's aim this down and out. It's gonna be over! That's my crotch. Everyone look at my crotch. It's gonna be over! It's gonna be over! See, it's... Okay, Tater Salad, Yes, that emote is not Vigo, but that's the crazy freaking dude from Ghostbusters 2 that first enhanced that cross.
48:57
Alright, so here's the tilt mechanism, ladies and gentlemen. Let's get a better light on here so you can see what's going on.
49:05
So what this is, is a thin piece of metal hanging down from the cabinet that has a hook on it, and it's angled in between this ring here. Alright? Now this is supposed to have a weight hanging from it, and when you hit the game... Watch, I'll show you.
49:22
When you hit the game, that starts to wiggle back and forth. That's the tilt mechanism in a pinball machine and has been for decades.
49:30
This mechanism you see here is in brand new machines that are out today. And this game came out in, like, the late 70s.
49:37

58:25

75:15

76:42
I like to think that I bring a nice touch of energy to that stream. But I'm almost certain he's going to be live at AGDQ.
76:59
Almost certain. If he ever decides to drop out, I might take over for him. Because it is such a fun event. It always has to have pinball from now on. It has to have pinball.
77:10
The Adam West really got me excited. Like, yeah, right. Dude, naive backwards, dropping the bits from the books. My man. new bulbs folks new bulbs is the most exciting part of the shopping process the part that you couldn't even see because I was working on it below the cameras viewing angle So if we did more to this game, here is what we would do. New flipper coils, new flipper coil sleeves, and maybe even new coils for all these things. These mechs are fine, I swapped out the drop targets.
78:05
We need to put new posts on the top side. They look fine. Actually, they look pretty good after I cleaned them. But new always looks freaking sexy.
78:15
Some of these switches just need to be cleaned a little bit. I got that. Let's get over here. Oh, this is a mess.
78:31
Slipper coil sleeves should have been re-built. Oh, they were a wonka. We put new sleeves in. What I'm saying is these coils, okay, the coils for the pop bumpers, the coils for the drop targets, could all use new sleeves also. And what's cool is Pinball Life gave us a whole bag of variety sleeves to put in there. So we got this. Show us an old bulb and a new one. Okay.
79:08
Can you guess which one's which? Yo, Running Man, how you doing, stud? Man, the focus on this camera is incredible.
79:22
Who fired it? See, it's all the same damn songs. So we got this. Oh, we're over here. It's the Who Farted song every time. Thanks, Dad. You got a sweet face.
79:43
It's a bop-a-dee, bop-a-dee. Kind of epic machine you're working on now, Jack. We're shopping out a Stern Stars pinball machine and doing an awesome job of it let me tell you we wait to see the top side of this it's this thing was dirty AF and now it's clean AF there you go sneak on in there bud so we got all these and then down in here hey Jack you still have a shit on the ceiling you lost the microphone no you didn't Mike's still working. Yeah, the poop's still up there. Those drop pockets are, yeah, dude, they are freaking gorgeous. Let's put them back up. I might want to tighten this higher, actually.
80:52

81:17

82:42
All right. Dropping them hard. So, the part that I'm most nervous about is hooking the head back up to this thing.
83:02
Baking from your buns, I believe is what this song's called. Baking from your buns. Alright, we got all this. Now we need this area. Keeping this stuff straight. There's
83:22
so many freaking bulbs, man. The plugs should all be keyed. The plugs should all be keyed. What does that mean, Wonko? I need layman's terms, bub. Bubba. Bubba. Oh, your name is Evan. I get it. Name backwards. Oh, the plug cell be key. Oh, cool. Thanks, dude. Thanks, Wonko. Yeah, man. I'm hoping. Someone actually took a Sharpie to all these. Look at this. They took a Sharpie to the connectors.
84:14
So I think it's going to be easy to hook this thing back up, honestly. I think it's going be okay to hook this back up without any going. Replace these. Guys, what if we plug this thing in and it just sings? You know? That's what I'm banking on. Like, we did everything perfect. There's no problems with any boards or any crap like that, and this thing just cooks. Like this bracket feels a little like it's going to snap. The bracket feels real loose. How long until you plug it in and test it? Maybe today. Maybe today. We have to hook
85:19
the back box up, power cord. You know what? We might just stream until we can plug this thing in. How does that sound? It shouldn't take us very long. We're just doing bold crap right now. We could literally just stop doing this and hook the back box up.
85:36
Come on, you dirty piece of crap. Oh, you're the worst. I need you. I think you're going. Alright. Oh, my fat ass fingers, guys.
86:03

So this kid finds this car. So the movie opens like this. There's all these 50s cars being produced on the line. They're all white. One of them is red. Some guy gets in the car and he's like finishing up the car. The car kills him. This car has a mind of its own. It's possessed by the devil. Anyone that owns it is possessed by the car and just starts killing everybody. And it is incredible. Definitely check out the movie Christine. It's pretty sweet. Storytime with Dad. In a book, it's a Plymouth Fury. In a book it's...oh nice. Yeah, it's a cool movie guys. You should check it out. But I'm saying we do that in pinball porn.

98:03
Okay, power cable. Power cable looks good. That looks good. Do what? There are ton of holes in the back box. Cheers all the way tonight, have a beer. Oh dude, absolutely. Would LED ones work?

Look how freaking pretty this thing is. We had to take everything off of here, clean it, every single little piece, screw all of it, and put it all back on. Look funny. You look funny.
102:21
Re-re-re-recognize. Damn orange rubbers though. Dude, MeFund, right? Those orange rubbers, oh my god, they're freaking gorgeous. Where's the apron? I left it off. You know what, fuck it, let's put the apron It's apron time boys I mean blanket
103:12
So these go through the top Now these are supporting the bottom. So these are screwed into the table.
103:33
They're screwed in top to bottom, which was weird. Triplepecker, what's up dude? You and your boss name dude. Such a boss name. Triplepecker. Triplepeckerpecker! So many washers, good gravy. We gonna cook something? Pinball is always so hard as a kid. I haven't played on a real table in like a decade. Misco Amor. I'll tell you, we do a lot of instruction on how to play pinball and how to get better at pinball. And I promise you, I can have you playing better in just like one stream. Just watching me stream one day when I'm actually doing instruction, I can have you playing better, hands down, no joke.
104:37
Can someone, oh, yo, also, Misco, if you type exclamation point tutorials, you'll see a complete list of flipper mechanics and flipper moves you should be learning in order to get better at playing pinball.
104:52
Exclamation point tutorials. I think it's with an S. I'm almost certain. Yeah, totally, Miska. That's what we're here for, bud. That's what we're here for. It's all about being Clutha and helping everyone be super awesome. Cheers, Jack. Yeah, man.
105:28
Anyone named Jack is alright in my book. Get more beer. Hurry up. Okay, where the hell are you? All about that center post. Dude, we finally got a rubber on the thing. You feel it? We finally got a rubber on the center post.
105:54
Shoot again. Yeah, where my view box at? Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for being here. Thank you for all the follows, the subscriptions, the donations, the beers, the cheers, the jokes. If you haven't already, please click follow. It's free to do and I'll love you forever. I still have no idea what's going on really except pinball and I have no idea about pinball. But I'm astounded that this is interesting.
106:32
Quantum, I love you, buddy. Thanks for being here, dude. Well, you know what? Keep smoking, buddy. When's the first power test? Hopefully soon. What time is it? You know what? Hopefully soon. We're going to put the apron on. We're going to recut the... We're going to put a new plug on the back. We're going to hook up the head. We should be close, actually. I'm hoping today.
106:59
Okay, that's to hold the apron up. Oh, this thing needs cleaning too, but it's going to rip all the paint off.
107:10
Shit. You know what, we're going to leave it dirty. We're going to leave it dirty. Novus eats paint off of metal. So, that's what we're trying to avoid. Eating the paint, obviously. Wait, what is pinball? You just keep the ball? Yeah, I saw that hitbox. Pinball's all luck anyway? Oh, what? It's between this and social media? Dude, watch your own blood here, buddy. Already having a great time. First time in your stream? Ah dude, Jack Rapture, thanks for coming buddy, I appreciate it. If you were having a terrible time I would expect you to tell him so. Could just use soap and water, I think that's what we're going to do. But we'll come back and do that. We'll come back and do it.
108:12
Now I'm addicted? Now I'm ejected. Aw, same phase. I love you, bud. For me, finding pinball is all love. Hit pause.
108:22
Exclamation point pinball. There you go. Meatball just did it. I promise you you can find some pinball.
108:35
That is a promise. All right. Apron is on. Let's turn this off. It's blowing it out. Oh, yeah! She's looking like a pinball machine again.
108:59
Looking up where to find it on Mixy's header. Don't be sad. Aw, whoops. It's like, yeah, there's a pinball machine near me in every douchey bar that's ever been douchey. Son of a douche.
109:14
It's time to replace this. What part is a pain in the ass to replace fixed? Um, the biggest problem I had was the drop target assembly. So we had to take apart the drop target assembly to get these targets out. and that was probably the biggest pain. But really, this hasn't been too bad.
109:45
Finding parts is generally not hard for pinball machines because the hobby is so well-guarded and well-maintained that there's generally always replacement parts.
110:00
Ah, hit pause. It sucks, dude. Yo, Quantum, thanks for the follow, buddy. Everybody, thanks for your follows. What part of America are you based? I'm in Chicago, Illinois, the birthplace of pinball, ladies and gentlemen, and where the last surviving major manufacturer of pinball machines exists.
110:17
Stern pinball. So many wires. So many spiders. So many spiders, folks. In before spider babies fly out of here.
110:36
There you go. always talk to the owners, man. If the machines are in disarray, and you... So, good job on that then. Thank you, class.
110:47
I said major pinball manufacturer. They're the last surviving one. There's new companies that have popped up for sure.
110:55
JJP is only like five or six years old, but they've only produced two machines. Man, what idiot bent down Oh my god Someone found the ground on this thing and like bent it down Snip off the old plug I wanted to I'm trying to get my hands dirty with everything I want to see what every little bit is on this bad boy Spooky has produced now their third machine I'd say you need maybe five to not be boutique.
111:34
That's just me, personally. I think you need like five machines to not be boutique. Like if you're a car company and you made one car,
111:49
are you a major car manufacturer? No, you made a car. If you make two cars, no, you just made two cars.
111:57
Oh, I'm not saying they're not a real business. Mad respect to those guys. I even worked on the Wizard of Oz pinball machine.
112:09
They're good kids. I got a lot of friends that work in the Illinois office of Jersey Jack Pinball here. Not too far, actually, from where we're located. Look at... shit.
112:25
I'm glad I took a photo of this. Hear that, Tesla? How many cars does Tesla have? They have like five or six machines, don't they? Five or six tables? Alright guys, everyone wants to argue. It's fine, I love
112:45
you. We're all good. Um, I need to look at the photo of this because I just forgot what the layout was for this cable.
113:01
All right, here it is. So green was ground. All right, got it. I know Stash and I were talking about you working on Waz last night on a stream. Yeah, Goran, I did the Wicked Witch animations on the Wizard of Oz pinball machine and designed the entire back end of all of Jersey Jack's pinball machines. So that menu that you're using when you're back there, I created that look.
113:29
Where's the other plug? Oh, there it is. Listen to me fun. Wait, what happened? Jack, the new plug will have instructions. Black is hot. All right, cool.
113:44
Yeah, and I got zero credit on that game, too. Don't cross the street. Black is hot. Yes, it is. I still have the Wicked Witch outfit from the actress that we hired to model it for the pinball machine. I'm still trying to figure out what to do with it.
114:10
If you folks have an idea. I mean, donating it would be cool. It'd be awesome if there was an actual pinball museum museum. You know, everyone says they're a freaking museum, but it's just like an arcade.
114:26
Commute complete. I'm back. Welcome back, buddy. It's always the same. Always the same. I have an idea. Smell it. Oh, cool. Auction for kids. I think that's what I want to do. It's like stuff...
114:42
Mother... Oh hey buddy. Thanks for following. Chatterbait Scream incoming. Give to top donator. I think that's a great idea. Yo, dropping screws, boy. Crit camp, what's going on, bud? Thanks for coming. No, we got... I have magnets everywhere now just for that reason.
115:20
I seriously lulled. Please no lull. I can't wait to plug this stupid game in. All wire screw. So that's in. All right, green, black, and white. Cool. They even color-coded the screws. Look at that. That is a green screw. You buy your first pack in our Cobra Fest? Dude, hell yeah. I've been searching for you. Oh.
116:19
So what do I just put it? Go. In before green screws, you know what I'm saying? Even you can build this, basically. I thought red was... Shut up.
116:48
Alright, so here's... Wonko, are you here? There's like a plate in between here. Do I just wrap it around the screw and tighten it down? Or does this plate fucking have something to do... Eh, fuck it. I'm just going to rip it around.
117:00
Donate to kids. Sorry about the burp. Wait! Well, now I have tetanus. Now I have tetanus. Put it between the plates and tighten it down? That's what I was guessing. Twitch feel highlight number one.
117:36
Good job, Butterfinger. It stabbed me. I'm bleeding now. You piece of shit. This thing cut me. Or stabbed me, I should say.
117:56
Put it between the butts, Jack. Alright, got it. Can do. Motherfreaking butts! Ugh, you stupid... Oh my god. Calm down, you piece of sh... Stab me again. Watch what I do. Watch what I do. In before tetanus, boys. In before tetris.
118:24
Listen, I recently had a tetanus shot, so we're good. I recently got a tetris shot. Nobody wants Tetris, you know what I'm saying?
118:40
The copper might be too long. That's what I'm guessing. Yeah, I think it is. Trim the leaves. I'm going to bend it.
118:57
Actually, no, that's perfect. It's perfect. It's perfect, boys. It's actually, it couldn't be more perfect. Couldn't be more perfect. Just re-strip the new lines. Nah, we're good. It's perfection.
119:22
Welcome to Deadflip 101 power supply rebuilding. Nailed it! NERDS! Oh baby! It's been like 20 years.
119:51
The apron graphics where they're worn off? Definitely. I'd like to do a lot of that stuff, spotted or a Moses sorry the chat was moving
120:15
did you feed the line through the other half of the plug first yeah I did I did I did. 100% yes. Wack-wack-wink-wam-wam-wam-wam.
120:46
Blue, not red. Oh god, what have I done? What is your favorite color? Blue. Okay. I want to buy a screw that cooperates. Thank you.
121:16
Get on in there, bub. Excellent, excellent, excellent. We're getting there. This is so freaking exciting, so close now. Yeah, we just gotta put the head on, connect it. I might put the legs on too, just in case.
121:33
I don't want this thing falling off the cart. I like blood red with a twist of lemon. Dank Man TV. So dank. So man. Why you so dank, bro?
121:49
How'd you get so dank, bro? Yo, we in here, boys. We really out here. We really out here getting this done. Doing it. Bringing it to life. Why so dank though? Come on up. There you go. Boom! Where's the other entrance? Come on up.
122:31
Like a boss. Like a freaking boss. What is the best height to be to play pinball? It's certainly not 6'7". Let me tell you that. I've had my ass kicked by a lot of seven and eight year olds in major competitions and I think being short has something to do with it I'm getting fog champ ready
123:16
curse these beautiful eyeballs I have I would say C level yeah, C level is probably good get ready Hello?
123:38
Think McFly. Is there a reason why you're just spinning and not grabbing? You have me flubbergusted.
123:55
Get ready! Yeah, get ready. Did I put this on wrong? God damn it. Yeah, it wouldn't be a deadflip stream if something didn't get fucked up. I gotta rotate it. The height of your head is at, yeah, dude. So Lyman's feet is a great example of like, oh, here we go. Boom.
124:30
Getting down to the perfect stance because his stance, his head is level with the, just above the glass. It's insane.
124:41
Show the class. There's one. Two. And we just got to cap the bottom and this thing theoretically will be safe to plug into something. Three. You grab this part, it goes around the cable like this. Top it in. Screwzy doozy.
125:25
Man, we should celebrate with some beer tonight, you know? Who wants to go out drinking tonight? Who wants to come with me to like a barcade or something?
125:35
I haven't been to a barcade in like a couple of weeks, boys. It's been a minute. You buy? Let's go, Jake, man. I'll buy you your first two beers.
125:57
I'll buy you your first two beers. Internet? God damn it. Yeah, boy! Booyah! Get rekt, nerds. We did it. Plug it in. Look at that. We all about that plug life. This got a man. I don't need no effing fire extinguisher. What we are going to do, though, is put the black song. You know what? No, I'm not. I lied to you. I'll never lie to you again. I apologize. I'm back. I have beer. Hell yeah. Let's do this for back box connection time. Alright guys, hold your lunch. Hold your lunches. Hold on to your butts, ladies and gentlemen. tables for days alright I'm going to put the back legs on just to be safe
127:41
I'm going to have to jack the game up a little bit. Do you think it's safe to put the head on without the legs? Yeah, we're fine.
128:12
We're not gonna put it on. We're not gonna put it on legs. Dead backlash, though. Oh yeah, this is my animation studio. This is also my pinball place. Awesome. Oh fuck. Stink face, we're fine, bud. Alright, so this does not have keys. Delicately putting it here. Oh no. Delicately putting it next to the track. Next to the track where all the interior changes are. Delicately throwing the box there. I just wanted to... Oh my God, it's beautiful.
129:30
Is that some tangerine you're hiring? I know a guy. It's me. I'm going to say I love you. Hey, I know a guy. It's me. I love you. So, this is going to, we're going to have to do this an interesting way here. We've got to drop this through, and then we're going to feed them up after the fact. We've got to make sure this, though, is through this little notch right here, so we can put the back box on top of it. Can we see inside the back box? Yeah, we're going to, because I have to connect all the wires.
130:04
Oh, Jesus Christ. Oh, this thing is not light. Um, well. So where are the head bolts to this thing? Oh frick, where's that bag? Oh there it is.
130:49
Alright, head, don't go anywhere. So let's see. There's a sound of a pinball hitting the ground. Amateurs lifting with your back. Um, Amosys, can I tell you something? I'm 6'7". If you could tell me how to lift with my legs being that tall, I would gladly do it.
131:10
Alright, we got the head bolts. Oh. Okay, we're going to have to approach this from the other side. Then after the approach is from the other side. You're going to get on your way to the light. Then squat. Alright, just a little scoochie back.
131:59
There's the hole. Jesus Christ, this thing is heavy. Like trying to find the hole. I'm trying to find the hole, boys.
132:24
Oh, is that it? Oh, I think we got it. Is there a back hole? There's a back hole. I think we'll go back hole first unless there's more
132:59
All right there, oh, thank you come on Sorry guys, I can't reach out right now. I'll be with you in just a moment
133:14
It actually looks super clean in here, holy crap. Hole not confirmed. Uh, Gorin, you gotta find out buddy, why is that? Good, there's another head bolt in here. Thank goodness. So that's two, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Alright, we got all the leg bolts too. I posted a link to IPDB. Oh, sorry buddy.
134:13
Uh, yeah, someone... Go on, you can be trusted. There was no reach. Where's the wrench? Here comes the end of the route, so... I'm still using the wrench.
134:39
Oh wait, I don't have to. Wait, did you buy a thing that retracts? Oh, yeah. Alright, we're using the roof.
135:24
Move out, get into the bedroom, sir. Move out, spend time to time some pizza. Uh, internet, I haven't already said it. Thank you so much for being here. I love you, and I'm in love with you.
135:39
God, you smell good. Oh God, you smell so good. Oh, that's a fun little... ...freakin'... ...piece of metal sticking out. Man, if I didn't have tetanus... ...already, my jaw's getting kinda tight.
136:09
That face when your jaw's getting tight, you know what I'm saying? Lockjaw. Oh, my hand. Everything's bleeding. Okay. So I was told that this ground wire is very important. Oh, did I have to put a bolt over there instead? God damn it. Is that what that's for?
137:11
I didn't pull the head off of this thing, so I don't know where any of this crap goes. The clench. Can you guys see what's going on? Should I zoom out a little bit?
137:26
And maybe turn this light on? There you go. You're supposed to use vice grips. Alright, we're good. Hey, bitch, go play in the steps. So, Wonko, it's a bit dark. Not anymore. So, I'm guessing, Wonko, here, let me look at this here. that this right here, zoom.
138:09
So that's a ground wire, okay? Right here. Is this supposed to be underneath a bolt? Like bolted down? Or does this go somewhere else? Because there isn't a lot of slack on this. I think it just had to go under here. So we might remove this front bolt and put it over there.
138:25
Oh, that was pretty late. Professional AF. Yeah, I think that's what we're going to do. We're going to remove this bolt and put it over there, underneath the ground wire.
138:50
Finger screw, finger screw. Hey look, high voltage. It connects to the metal plate in the back to the ground. Uh, what? There's no metal plate. What are you talking about?
139:09
Wonka, what metal plate do you see? Jack, the ground braid needs to connect to the back of the head. Um, where?
139:19
This is how short it is, and it looks like it had a nail holding it down underneath a bolt right there. You see that?
139:29
The entire back of the head is metal. Yeah, so what I'm going to do is I'm going to take a bolt like this, put it here to hold that down.
139:43
It looks sheared. Is that incorrect? Behind the bolt. Where back here does that go then? That looks sheared off. It looks flat like it was underneath here. Okay, the ground braid, see the ground braid at the front of the head? I'm holding it here. This here. This is the ground braid. Right here. This guy. This is
140:36
the ground braid. I have no idea. I still yet can get my... some of the screenshots in circle. There looks like there was a bolt here and that this braid was being held down right there. At the front of the head. This here? I see what you're saying. Oh, so it was sheared off. Because it was like nailed in right here. You see that? Okay. There's also a screw missing to ground it over here too. Oh. So there's no hole. There used to be something screwed right there. Here, I'll zoom in for you now that I know what I'm looking here. It used to be right there. Here, let's tighten this up. It used to be right here, but got sheared off, right? It was, it was touching this. So I just need to tuck it underneath here and like nail it down essentially. Got it. Yo, internet, internet. We're freaking We're doing it man! We're figuring it out man! We're doing it! Where the fuck's the screws? Where's all the screws? I'm gonna try to stick my hand in here even though I've been in here like a million times. Yep, spider, got it. Found the spider. Okay. There's that. Let's see, where's the other spider? Oh, gross! Yeah, this has been marked with Sharpie. It's amazing.
142:39
And if you answered your phone, I'd talk you through it. Oh, I don't know where my phone is. Baby steps, boys. We got it. We will plug the ground in in a second. Let's connect all these fun things first. This looks like fun. We'll come back to the ground in a second.
143:00
What a... it's a nine. It's a six. Three. Eight. Where's nine? One, two, three. What? Owl Anonymous, for 16 months in a row, brother, thank you for maintaining a member, because typically you get your amazing. I love you, buddy. Mission freaking accomplished. Flip flip. Flip flip. Love you buddy. Ladies and gentlemen, flip this and buzz up for my boy. Flip flip. Uh, nine. nine there's eight um wherever it is it's far away and we'll come back to that okay this is five right there easy buddy don't bend any pins mama please be nice let's go get on there why are you You'll be in such a deep...
144:36
Hashtag never answers phone. Got it. This is six, so that goes... right here. Okay. Moving right along. Dude, everyone should Sharpie their pens. This is amazing.
144:57
Look at that heat sink. Bazaar. Two. There's two. Scrooge. Okay. This is unlabeled. I'm guessing it goes here.
145:17
We're just guessing here, folks. This is a fun game that we're playing. It's called, how far can you move the wire away? Oh, not that far. It probably goes here.
145:29
Okay, here's seven. Five...um...seven. Where you at Seven? Three...eight. That suddenly sounded like a phantom lord.
145:47
What's crackin'? Dude, bunny beanbag, how you doing, Stud? Okay, do you see a number seven anywhere here, folks? Just looking for number seven...number seven... Numbers...seven. Let's just look for more pins. The other pen here is 8. Alright, here's 8. Oh, this must be 7 and 8. Got it.
146:12
So that goes right there. Scrooge. You really don't want to go on there, right? Scrooge. Okay. Definitely not 7. This.
146:32
It goes right here. This is... it's like a dangerous game of Legos. This... goes... somewhere... somewhere.
146:56
Fire extinguisher. Upper right of the board, bottom right of it. Upper end of the board, bottom right. Oh, seven! Yeah! Good job, guys. That's too tall to see that.
147:13
And it's on. So that is everything, except for the ground wire, obviously. We got to get that ground wire. Alright. So, how would you suggest we put that ground wire on? With a nail? They're usually keyed so it's idiot proof. Yeah, it was pretty idiot proof, I have to say. Oh, my beard. Oh, my magnet. Hit the power switch and look for smoke. I gotta fix the ground first my man. Gotta fix the ground first. So should I dig up the nail that's in the ground wire, move it, and then ground it in with a machine screw? Okay let's see. Is there a machine screw in this?
148:08
Do you have a self-tapping screw? I don't even know what that means. So this is literally held on with a nail. There's also a screw missing over here to hold the ground thingamajig in. So we're missing the thing with the jig. Hold on. Can I steal a screw from somewhere else? That looks like a screw I can take, right? Can I take that screw and put it here for the ground? Yes I can. Dude, Berryman, hell yeah man. That's what we're here for dude. We're just trying to show this stuff off. For you with coarse threads. Alright, hold on, let me get this down first. I don't have any screws anywhere for anything. You think, how old is this thing? Yeah, it's about thirty... late thirties? It's about in its late thirties? Okay. So. Wonka, let me show you what is holding this together. So this is using a dildonic nail. It's right here. It's literally a nail holding it in. Can I just up that nail and put it back in? This was made when I was born, hell yeah dude.
150:02
Self tapping. Tap there. Jack, that is what is always used. Oh, just a nail? Just wrap the cabinet braid under the head braid for now. Alright, done. Can do buddy, can do. Wrapped. Wrapped and crapped. Oh my God, folks. We're ready to... I think we're ready to turn this thing on.
150:33
Everything looks plugged in. Hmm. Wait, what the hell is this thing? Oh, no, that's good. In before fire, boys. In before fire. Plug it in and hit the power. Let's make sure the power's off.
150:56
Alright. Alright, you guys ready? I've never been more afraid of anything in my life. I have children.
151:09
I have children. Wow. We are plugged in. Oh my god! Oh my god Oh my god Oh my freaking god. The whole thing works. All of it. The light. The drop target. It all works, boys.
152:04
Sleep drops work. We did it! We fucking did it! We fucking did it. Little annoying. We fucking did it. Oh my god. Guys, hold on. We fucking did it. Tilt, oh you want me to test the tilt, Bob? Uh, yeah, I'll test it.
152:45
Sorry, I didn't mean to swear, I'm just like over the moon. This is what I was... I can't... I can't freaking believe this, guys.
153:15
This is IN-TAN-IT-A-CY. Oh my god. Uh, no, it's an EM. They didn't have music. Everything fucking works! Everything works! Everything works! It's amazing! Yo. Where's that star? The 2000 light is out? These lights aren't turning on either.
154:22
The 2000 light is out. Where's 2000? Oh, down here? Okay, I'll take a look at that. All this right here isn't lighting? coin door and push the little red button on top of the coin max open the coin door
154:49

155:38
Alright, we gotta take a look at the ding-dings. There should be a light test. Test button all the lights come on. Oh, so hit the red button and then hit it again. I don't know what red button I hit. Is it on the coin door? I'm getting... On top of the coin, man.
156:26
Where's that necklace? Oh, that? Okay, the lights are flashing. The lights are flashing. So it looks like that's out, that's out. Got it. All right, all the bulbs in the back are doing their thing. Yeah, this looks great. So, oh, there's a, we gotta put a bulb in the pop bumper too. Our ding dong. Cool. What's all this crap? Okay, so, we've got to put a light back in here. Let's do that right now. Where's my screwdriver? There it is. How exciting. This is awesome. Awesome, awesome, awesome. the drop targets will come up at the end of each ball, right? Are they supposed to pop up automatically?
157:53
Here, watch. Drop targets are up. See? They come up. No targets come up. Guys, how freaking exciting is this?
158:20
Confirm most exciting. It's beautiful. It really is, guys. It really is. I'm so elated right now. I've already got it out. Jim's Arcade.
158:40
I could change this on the fly right? Holy shiz! Thanks Double Danger! I feel like our baby's all grown up. We did it folks! Pants off! Let's go! One of the wires broke off? Oh, you think so?
159:28
Dude, come on! on. The track mode is kind of unusual for an early solid state. Well, here she is. So, let's take note of the lights that are out real quick, and we got to look at the drop targets to make sure they're working. These screws, we have leftover screws, obviously, because you're supposed to have leftover screws. Every time you fix a pinball machine, my wife is impressed. It's huge, man. Thanks, Amosus. I'm over the moon, honestly. This is exciting.
160:08
This game was like, we didn't, oh, guys. I'm going to cry. I'm going to freaking cry. Best to turn the game off the play field. I'm not going to, I'm just going to take note of the lights that are out. I'm not gonna...
160:34
Yeah baby! How the hell do I get in here? Oh wait, this bulb works! These bulls were like, no, wait! Let me stay!
161:07
Whatever. The R is... Screw you guys. The R is... I don't know if you do that. Are you familiar with the R?
161:26
Oh, that's just like weak. It's like a weak socket or something. Or is it supposed to be half dim like that? Another one stopped working since the last test. Yeah, those are supposed to be at like half power.
162:03
Some of them, like all these, are the same dimness, and then these are super bright. I think it's on purpose.
162:13
Oh, you can't even see those. I'm sorry, guys. You can't even see what the hell I'm doing. No socket is supposed to be half power, really? You sure?
162:32
Because it seems like everything within these is half power. How the hell do I get my hand in there?
162:50
Hold on, let's look at these old rubbers because we need the old tip of the plunger. Different one? Oh, that could be. Alright, I'll look at it. Plunger tip, plunger tip, where the hell is that plunger tip? It's gone a whirl. Where are you buddy? Where are you? Come, come up here. Come up here. Got it. Tip only, boys.
163:56
Got it. All right, so you're saying there's a line in the GI that's probably screwed. All right, we're going to take note of what's going on here because we need a... So, top, top left bottom special.
164:37
What is this area? Top target special. in lane. And top two stars. The spinner. Awesome. Guys. Holy crap guys. Are you kidding me? How dope is this?
165:14
All right, let's take a look at the line going to the GI here So How do I check this Follow the yellow... The yellow star is probably loose. Probably loose. This thing's plugged in now, so... Now that it's plugged in, um...
166:00
No, all the GI is fine, it's just... The lights that are in these brackets here... There's like... The ones that are following the same line are like... dim.
166:19
Under the playfield? making sure all these are in properly I mean it all looks good use your tongue multimeter yeah here won't go I'll show you what what's happening. All the bulbs that are inside of these like little pockets, well now they're not coming out at all. Oh there you go. Oh no we're fine. I kind of fixed it. Okay, we gotta hit start. We gotta see if it feeds the ball properly. Yeah, the drop targets. Oh, they seem to be registering just not fully. Yeah, I see that.
168:01
Alright, the yellow came back on. So for sure that red one is busted. It's loose, that's what's wrong. Yeah that's not giving points, so something's a little screwy with that. Yeah, test mode wasn't pushing enough power. Problem works. Yo, hell yeah, give me all them points. Alright, the chimes are a little goopy also. We're going to have to check those.
168:51
Let's pull this stuff off. for 14 months in a row. What a boss. Lethal Frag, how you doing, sexy? Thank you for maintaining your membership to the league. You're amazing. Ladies and gentlemen, flip us a bus up, my boy Lethal Frag, if you could. Frag, we did it, buddy. We brought this thing back to life, cleaned it up. It's only got a couple of quirks with some lights and maybe the drop targets with a wire, but dude, holy crap we did it. We flippin' did it. Flippers and bows.
169:33
Oh, get the ball out. Get the ball out. Flippers and bits. It's like it came together awesome. Dude, it's clean and all the bulbs are kicking. It's just freaking amazing. So, with the back box on, this actually won't go back anymore. So the wires have like these protectors on them.
170:18
Don't de-solder unless you have to. That's what Wonko said. So they're going up okay. I'm sure they're just not registering. So when they come down... Oh you know what? on. You know what it is? They're not connecting all the way. They're not connecting the switches all the way. I don't think these springs are strong enough. We might need new springs.
171:04
I did pull it out and lean it back a bit. It's, uh, there's a ledge, so... It's hard to explain. I can see your trying problem right now. Oh, yeah.
171:24
Well, there's your problem. The rubber broke. Time for a lethal swister. Oh, dude, I have one lethal frag. I bought one of those just for this build. Leafs Twitch Adjuster Tool. Wow, this really,
171:43
uh, this really broke, huh? That must be the one that's getting all the action. Okay, you stay there. Leafs Twitch Adjuster Tool.
172:03
Leech switch adjuster tool. It's an old rubber weird thing. Yeah, it straight up chimes. So here's a leech switch adjuster tool. Okay, I didn't notice that it had these little, It had a little hole in it. Use bubble gum to replace the rubber. Got it. Hell yeah, Chinese equals cool. Okay, for bolts, I'm going to unplug this. You do not need to adjust the switches. No, the springs aren't strong enough to pull the switches at, or pull the drop targets at the switch, Wonko. That's what's happening.
173:02
These switches here are not being pushed down far enough to make contact. It's just the springs aren't pulling it all the way down is what's happening.
173:35
You're binding along the bar. I can see right now that there's play. The bar, the spring is not pulling the spring down far enough. Or the spring isn't pulling hard enough. because they're spitting off right now
173:54
three two one contact little annoying with the 50 bits what a boss here I'll show you let's get a better angle of this here We gotta drop this way down.
174:33
You have them probably at springs. So, they're just not being pulled down to close the switch all the way.
174:56
Like this one is way out of alignment. Look at that. I can't even push it. The target won't even go down enough to make contact. This one is easy. This one is not pushing down enough at all.
175:29
Okay. I see the problem. It's my fault. It's... What it is is this bar was put on at a weird angle. So I just got to loosen it up and straighten it out. That's all that's happening.
175:53
It can all be done right here. I see exactly what the problem is. Look at that screw. Easy fix, easy life, that's all I'm saying buddy. No like this side of the arm isn't coming down all the way. There we go. Almost. There it is.
176:28
Boom. Closed. Don't you fucking fall. Donate to kids. Sorry guys. Sorry for swearing. Closed.
176:48
What the hell music are we listening to right now? Yeah, I'm gonna check the other side. Isn't mechanical stuff cool? Mechanical problems are amazing. Fix E. Delay.
177:42
Should be everyone hitting at the same time. Awesome. I still think those springs could be ti- Uhhhhhhhhhh, nope. I still think those springs could be tighter. We'll see. Perform open-heart surgery! Yeah man, we'll get there. Pym Tech School via chat, who knew? Zentron is an engineer. Yeah, the switches could use some cleaning. Alright, now that they're all... See, now this one's being pushed down properly.
178:23
You're pushing just fine. These other springs are wobbly, but this one's good. Alright, we gotta make sure this bar is good to go, which it's 100% not. Drop targets are never fun.
178:48
Well that sucks to hear. They're fun to hit. Yeah this explains why they were sometimes firing off. It's coming up.
179:15
Yep, gravity boys. Cool. We'll see. We'll see how this goes. We just want to make sure this bar is straight. Across. There's no T in the word across.
179:34
Alright, let's see how that works. Let's see how that works. Hashtag gravity boys, hashtag gravity. physics!
180:07
you like physics? your chat keeps dropping? so let's replace those bulbs while we're under here while we're here Oh, and the chime, too.
180:32
C&K, are you telling me that I did something right, or are you asking a question? Oh, uh... Adjust what in a stroke switch? For the flippers? The flippers are fine. These guys, Wonka said don't adjust them, so I'm not going to. If I did adjust them, it would work great.
181:13
But, uh, I'm going to take Wonka's word for it. Alright, Tater, have a good one, buddy. Yeah, we got the flipper EOS, but these have EOS switches, too. Whatever.
181:43
So, the in-lane, which is here. Seems that bulb looks a little weird. You know what? Screw it. Screw it!
182:11
We just want to get these sprout targets working. Oh, a washer! We found one! Yeah, this was in Upside Down also. Washer, rubber, plastic bit.
182:50
Right there. Flap, flap, flap, flap. That should spin right in there. Put it in the center. Or just signal switches? Oh, cool. Or just signal switches? Oh, cool. I know what you're saying. I know what you're saying.
183:29
Oh, you're telling me shit. Bending switch is the last thing you want to do? Oh, okay. Last thing you want to do. First thing I want to do is fix the damn thing. There we go. Piece of crap. Why are you loose?
184:17
Who taught you to be loose? Alright, there we go. Got it. Play field decapitation. It's coming. Alright.
185:06
Four times, buddy. Here we go. She is a beaut. Alright, the chimes are fixed. Pop-upers came up. Let's see what they do. Oh, no ball. The middle one can be adjusted. The middle drop target didn't fire off.
186:03
Alright, we fixed the lamps. That middle drop target didn't work. We were proud of you, but I'm over the freaking moon.
186:24
Five out of six. We're almost there. Look at the lights, they work! Watch this. Alright, so we just gotta fix that last one up there. Oh my god, this game is loud.
186:56
So this game has a cool gimmick. Check this out. When the game is level, that ball will bounce off of there and come up to the next slipper. It's amazing.
187:09
Cool. I think we... I think we're good, fam. Awesome, we got it. We got it. Sounds like your old doorbell. Hey, we lit. Wow, look at that.
187:54
Let's see. Got it. Guys, gals. It worked. This is insane. We did it. Yo. Shake my freaking hand, Internet. I love you so much. Yep. We work now. We working now.
188:30

Internet, thank you so much. Holy crap, this has been amazing! Pinball! Now I'm going to do a super cut of us working on this thing and post it to YouTube so you guys can see what I did. Because everything I did. Literally, if I can do this, I promise you, you can do this. The soldering is fun. Tearing it apart, cleaning it. We learned a lot of things. Tilt display test comes on. Hold on. Let's see if we can tilt this thing. See if we can tilt it. Is it still balling This tilt doesn't work. Oh, this tilt, um, I forgot to hook one of the wires up. Celebrated extra, hell yeah. Now we need some before and after photos. Oh, I got them, trust me. How does the tilt work? There's a ring and a plumb blob. A plumb blob. It's a plumb bob. It's like a thin piece of metal going around with a ring around it. And as it rattles inside of there, that's what gives you your warnings. Tilt the crutch. Yeah.
191:46
Wow, guys. We shopped it and it worked like a million bucks. Wait, how does the tilt work? Ha, ha, ha, ha. Thanks, Chronostory, you son of a bitch.
191:57
You take a plumb it. Alright, now there's nothing left to do but put the glass on and throw the lock bar down
192:08

Get the legs on it. Yeah, let's throw some legs on this bad boy. I got some cleaning to do, my man! Lock, bar, Jones. Now I can't wait to see him blow it up, dude. I cannot wait to put some scoring on this bad boy. Oh my god. God. She's beautiful. She's beautiful. She's beautiful. She's so beautiful. Oh my man. She's so beautiful. Probably worth ordering a new sheet of glass. Absolutely. Absolutely. It's filthy. It's freaking disgusting. Um, crap. What time is it? Oh, that only, that didn't take long at all. We built a new plug for it. Oh my god, it works, folks. Let's play a quick game. Let's play a quick game. No, we gotta put the legs on the damn thing. I don't know what I'm saying. I'm just like, I'm giddy. So, we might have a game to stream tomorrow, folks. We might have a game to stream tomorrow. That's the new name of the game. Fix it.
194:05
Stream it. It's gorgeous! Hello, stop rotating, please. It's freaking gorgeous. Don't forget about tilts. Eh!
194:28
Yeah, we got a bonus light out. That's alright. It's not the end of the world. Here's what we're going to do. Let's make it all super sexy.
194:37
Ooh. You're pretty. I like you. Put 2,000 lights out. Oh, right here? Oh, okay. I'll take a look at that.
194:51
You know what? I'm not going to wrench the legs on tonight. I am going to play a quick game of this, though.
195:00
Let's zoom out a little bit. Alright, we're at full zoom. Alright, let's rotate it up so you can see my score.
195:16
Score's bottom left, folks. Score's bottom left. Up! 500 points! I got a free 500 points. We gotta look into it. Oh my god, that spinner's gonna make... Uh oh. Is the slipper too tight or something?
195:40
Why would that slipper be sticking up like that? Did I screw it on too tight? Confirm or deny anybody?
195:49
Wonko, are you here? I love you. It's like dropping all stupid slow. Too tight? I love that there is a rollover up there. Is it touching the playfield? Doesn't look like it, no. They're both kind of ding-donging.
196:38
It's got brand new springs on it. It's got brand new springs on it. So I think I just gotta lift them up a little bit.
196:46
Guys. Holy crap, thank you so much, Internet. All right, let's make a note of that. So the 2009 is out.

198:09
No, that is out of... You are out of trend. Is that more of a controller? Um, I don't know. A bad ding from a dog?
198:25
It might be a bad wire because it's lighting up a little bit. You see that? I think the socket needs to be cleaned. The socket needs to be cleaned.
198:56
The, uh... Also, this test doesn't push out enough electricity to make it, like, amazing. How do you stop the test?
