Well, yeah, I guess I'm just showing footage now that's completely out of order. I don't know, maybe I'm Star Wars now or Firefly, whatever it was on TV, just showing you in episodes and there's no order to it, you know, bullshit. what's up guys and welcome back to my channel my name is kerry hardy and i talk and do everything pinball so if that sounds interesting to you then hit that subscribe button down below so i was going through all my video footage that i have on my computer and i stumbled across something that I lost and that is the footage for the Addams Family complete restoration that Jason is performing pretty much as we speak right now. So this footage is actually a prequel to what I've already shown you in my previous update so I'm going to try to categorize this as update uh I don't know I don't know how I'm going to categorize this video basically it is footage that you have not seen an earlier footage of basically him doing the whole process of rebuilding the cabinet and i know there's a lot of you out there that would love to see this so here is this footage of the basically process of him rebuilding the cabinet all right so we're going to give an update on adam's family restoration and progress so this thing is pretty much disassembled cabinet wise for sure yeah plate filled still all in total but uh there's the guts to the cabinet right there luckily it's very rare that transformers go out so i'm thinking it'll be all right so any issues that have arised up that John Youssi that you're concerned about or what well we know that DMD's probably shot anyways change it out we'll try to get a Marco Gold Series glitter playfield 4 a bedazzled blade field. And you have disassembled this damn cabinet to the point of a whole new front customly made. Already cut and got your start button hole and your chute room. All new bottom. Look at that. smooth looks damn good man still need to do a little bit of finish sanding in there but it's just about done still got to cut out the you got to have the before right here so that people can look at this shit yeah this is the before this is the one that had the tree growing in crap anyway that the bottom look like it got some water in here oh yeah fist in here or whatever yeah that one anyways it's junk so time to change it out and get fresh sides look pretty decent Still got a little bit of tackiness from the glue on there. Get that tackiness off. Sand her down. Just bring some sanding sealer on. Sand her down again smooth. Take a pocket full of money to TPF and hopefully come out broke with a whole lot of parts. Yeah. Just walk in there. Who's selling all the Addams Family shit? Where's Marco at? Where's Marco at? Yeah, this thing was pretty ratted out. It was just pretty well shot. Vendor drilled out a big old hole in it. Veneer was peeling up. So, just decided to make a new one. It's better off just to make a new one and be done with it. three days into it so now we're pretty much just waiting for glue to dry and nice cleaner up I probably got two more days on it and then it'll be ready to put the vinyl on we gotta get the vinyl that'll be another thing we'll be shopping for you gonna do gold or not I'm not going to do gold. I didn't realize there were so many differences between gold and gold. Yeah, you'd get like a whole different type of a bookcase. Yeah, a little stuff here and there. I think I'm just going to leave it as a standard on the vinyl. But the good thing about this machine and stuff is that since it's so common and so sought after, there are reproductions out the wazoo. Yeah. I mean, you can get almost every single damn thing on this damn game. Somebody's making it or has it. It's true. I was looking all the parts and everything up, and I was like, my God, he can get pretty much every damn thing for this thing. Both of these motors, I mean, are good, except for that's a more expensive one. Mm-hmm. So any concerns that you discovered that we didn't find during the... Not that I've seen. Good old... Yeah, we got to do something with that. That's the only thing that I've found really. A couple of wires here, you know, there's an orange wire here. The levers definitely need to be rebuilt. This machine was on the route for a while, you can tell. The playfield's pretty well trashed on the top side, every cliffy hole. Show them the wear on the cliffy holes. Okay, yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna get a letter of light on that. Yeah look at that wear boy Yeah That bad boy is warm Ow That almost termite damage on that one there not bad but that one right there yeah just straight ahead right in the flippers yeah so there's gonna be a lot of stuff to get replaced cleaned up on this bad boy anyways yeah we got some broken turkeys right there someone sells this might be what I'm talking about right here but there's a shielding that I've seen online I'll have to give you the website but there's like a metal shielding that can go over your ramp entrance okay for better protection protection still got a whole lot of work ahead of us man as far as the wire harness what the hell did you cut off right here that's everything that came out of the machine oh god so as far as wire harness goes with all the cut wires and stuff like that is as bad as it looks Not as bad as what we originally thought, but we do have some work. That's about the worst of it right there. So, we'll figure all that out a little later. Take the play field on. It's just got a couple of small spots on it. It's not as bad as I thought. That's pretty well the ground of it. Oh, yeah. Right here. some of that I think I saw yeah that's pretty easy fix got enough extra wire I'm part is gonna move everything back I'll put a new connector kit on it and you know all this crap to be cut out and brought back to here so all the hearts still being good shape to just cut out the bad stuff and shorten everything a little bit okay oh you go by Lowe's and see if I can get something material like that from a cabinet it looks like you got another wire out there it's gonna be fun going through all that yeah As far as I can tell, nobody makes a harness for a TPAF. TAF. TAF. The Adams family. Anyways, it's a busy play field, man. Yeah, I was playing one just recently. I thought I was doing so good on it. and then my score came up and then I was like nowhere near where everybody else was that I was like nope I guess I wasn doing that good oh yeah sign my name right there in that yeah so she had a lot of wear on it man This thing was routed out I'm going to assume I guess you're probably going to do all new rails again on this one. Probably. Yeah, that's what the plan is. You know what's sad is that I bet once you strip it all down, I bet you can still sell it to somebody. Maybe. Get you some money back for your new play field. Get you about $100 or $200 out of it. Yep. I'll just hang it on the wall next to the centaur. Make some wall art in here. There you go. Yeah, if I get this done, I'll get some legs. Nice chrome legs. I check with pinball plating makes some nice legs for it man it's like Chris royalty over there and he does all the good plating and stuff like that I've been wanting to get some stuff done inside rails a little bit of a dent in there I'd like to get some chrome plated ones. Do a chrome plated lock down bar. We'll get it all figured out. It's just money and time. That's all it is, man. It's just money. Money and time. Translight okay? Yeah. Looks like decent. Just needs a little cleaning up. Just needs cleaning up. It's real dusty. Yeah, it's salivable. save a hundred bucks yeah and there it is there is your prequel a little bit more in depth from what it looked like whenever we basically before he got the new play field and all the stuff put together before he could actually play it this was what the machine looked like and gave you a little more idea of the before and this next video that i'm going to be showing you in the future shows you more of the after and how pretty and long this machine is coming. I'll give you a little bit of a sneak peek right here. It's looking good, huh? Yeah, it's looking real good. So yeah, that's going to be coming up in the future, so stay tuned for that.
