TL;DR

Grazley Garage tour: Whirlwind 2.0 near completion, CPR playfield issues and upgrades documented.

Summary

Mike Dus visits Grazley Garage to document Kevin's pinball restoration projects, featuring a nearly-complete Whirlwind 2.0 Total Chaos with premium finish (four-layer clear coat with wet sanding and polishing between coats), CPR playfield work on Medusa (defective 10-year-old screen-printed playfield being replaced), Stars restoration for JC, and Evil Knievel upgrades. The video showcases CPR's expanded aftermarket offerings including plastic extension kits, custom toppers, and specialty components.

Key Claims

  • Medusa CPR playfield (10 years old, screen-printed) experienced delamination where clear coat and artwork separated during population.

    high confidence · Mike noted CPR's 12-color screen-printing process on old Medusa playfield; explained CPR no longer does screen printing and now uses digital.

  • Whirlwind 2.0 Total Chaos underwent four layers of clear coat with wet sanding and polishing between each coat for premium finish.

    high confidence · Kevin confirmed: 'Yeah. And then like wet sand and polished it in between each uh coat' and later 'wet sanded and then polished it.'

  • Reese (associated with Flipping Out Pinball podcast) no longer makes custom rails due to seasonal/weather constraints.

    medium confidence · Mike noted: 'Reese was like um part of what was it? This flipping out pinball podcast and used to do this on the side for quite a while...he is no longer doing these from what I understand.'

  • CPR plastic extension kits exist for at least Stars, Evil Knievel, and other classic games with shooter gauges, oneway gates, and promo pieces.

    high confidence · Kevin showed Evil Knievel and Stars plastic upgrade kits with identical component types (shooter gauge, oneway gates, coin inserts, promotional stickers).

It is Halloween and tonight is the night that the Toronto Blue Jays are going to win the World Series in Toronto. So, that is happening. I'm going to head over to the Grazley garage as well. Snoop around over there. Kevin's been working on a bunch of stuff and um went there last night actually, a couple of us, and uh shot some chat, drank a couple beers, did a little uh investigating of what's going on over there. And I'm going to head back over there and show you what he has been up to. I think in the last episode, the whirlwind 2.0 0 was nearing completion and it is basically done now. It's just waiting for the topper and then it will be officially finished and then Kevin has moved on and started some other things. So, we'll head over there, check out the action. Happy Halloween and let's go Blue Jays. Well, hello there doggies. What did you bring me Maynard? Hey, give me that. Aw, thought you were bringing me a bone. What's going on, dude? Oh, not much. Freaking trains every time Oh, not much. Freaking trains every time I come to your house. Seems like ah, this one wasn't so bad. Seems like ah, this one wasn't so bad. What are you working on today? Cars. Cars. Oh, yeah. Okay. I figured as much. Oh, yeah. Okay. I figured as much. Yeah. Time to get it ready. Yeah. Time to get it ready. Yeah. Well, here is what is going on in Yeah. Well, here is what is going on in the garage. We've got $6 million man. We've got Medusa stars. Obviously, the Mario Brothers cabinets. That's uh probably what on the back burner for now. Pretty much everything from me is on the Pretty much everything from me is on the back burner. Yeah. All your stuff. The cobbler's Yeah. All your stuff. The cobbler's shoes. What is it? The cobbler's wife has no shoes or something. That's how the saying goes. I usually try to squeeze have a project in my end, but we got to get rid of some stuff. Yeah, it's pretty tight in here. Um, Yeah, it's pretty tight in here. Um, yeah. So, there's the other fighting cabinets. And then, of course, evil conval. So, and high speed. and high speed. Oh, yeah. High speed. So, how many Oh, yeah. High speed. So, how many machines is that right now? One, two, three, four, five. And see which is going more. And see which is going more. Oh, yeah. That's right. So yeah, because Oh, yeah. That's right. So yeah, because there was a little bit of a hiccup with the Medusa. You started on that first and then uh well and then uh well kind of ran into a little bit of a problem. So this is like a 10-year-old CPR playfield. And uh normally that wouldn't be a problem. I mean it's still brand new, but it's 10 years old. And you started to populate the playfield. Hi Mabel. So, you stuck in a post looks like here and here and here. That's as far as I got. That's as far as I got. And then um I don't know if you can And then um I don't know if you can really see, but the clear started kind of coming off. And the artwork too, right? Yeah. Yeah. And so you kind of like smartly paused And so you kind of like smartly paused and said, "Wait a minute. This might be a problem." And sure enough, if you look down here, you can see it is definitely a problem. Not sure what happened with this playfield, but yeah. What do you think of that, Mabel? That's not supposed to happen. I got it. And uh And uh yeah, yeah, you can't really you can't really you're not really supposed to be able to you're not really supposed to be able to pick off the clear and have the art come with it, but um absolutely. Kevin reached out to CPR who absolutely. Kevin reached out to CPR who made this playfield. And uh even though this is a 10-year-old product, they have been awesome to work with cuz this was back in the in the days when they were doing screen printing of playfields, which is kind of amazing cuz this is what like 12 colors. That would have taken a lot of passovers to make this. So, uh they don't do that anymore. They do digital printing. So, they're going to send you like a shipping label, right? Y Y and then you're going to ship this back and then you're going to ship this back to them. They're going to strip it right down to Barewood, uh, digitally reprint the playfield, clear coat it, let it cure, and send it back. So, Medusa is kind of on hold. So, thumbs up to CPR. Yeah, thumbs up to CPR for sure. They Yeah, thumbs up to CPR for sure. They came through like a 10-year-old playfield. They're going to redo it for just the cost of whatever, you know, it cost them to do it. Few hundred bucks. So that's pretty awesome. So that means that Medusa is going to be on hold until that playfield comes back. So this is Sean Bennish's machine. So like you said, tomorrow he's going to bring his sea witch so that you can do while uh you wait for the Medusa Playfield. And in the meanwhile, you uh moved over to stars. to stars.

This is like a whole CPR episode. It's This is like a whole CPR episode. It's turning out to be. Eh, let's see what this thing looks like.
    15:39
    I had an evil conval plastic set back in the day and I used, you know, all the plastics except for that like extra bike jumping over the evil conval like standup thing. And I ended up selling that on eBay and I don't know, someone paid a pretty pretty good penny for that alone. So, Let's see this. Okay, pretty cool. Color me lucky. And then it kind of looks sort of like a signature there as well. So, it kind of looks like a signature. it kind of looks like a signature. And then, yeah, you just break off this And then, yeah, you just break off this top piece and voila. Got yourself a topper. Got yourself a topper. Way up there. Way up there. Yeah, that'll be up there. Yeah, that'll be up there. All good. You going All good. You going I'm like, yeah, that was close. It I'm like, yeah, that was close. It didn't uh didn't fall, so we're safe. Okay. Well, that's a lot of goodies back there. And there is more. But, uh, did you want And there is more. But, uh, did you want to get into back glasses or you want to save that for later? I will save that for later. I will save that for later. Or safe. Or safe. Yeah. Yeah. Good idea. Safe from people Yeah. Yeah. Good idea. Safe from people like me. So, there's the highspeed. This is also on hold for now. Yeah. Well, kind of on hold. Yeah. Well, kind of on hold. You might deal with the cabinet. You might deal with the cabinet. Yeah. Well, it's got to get painted Yeah. Well, it's got to get painted anyway, so might as well just do that. Yeah. The rest of that is uh Yeah. The rest of that is uh over here. You already did the playfield swap. And I'm sure I have shown this in a previous video, but this thing is just gorgeous. Yeah. Yeah. Again, CPR, right? Again, CPR, right? Yep. Yep. CPR playfield. Thank God for CPR, CPR playfield. Thank God for CPR, though. Eh, no kidding. I mean, what would we do without him? I mean, what would we do without him? So, that's the rest of uh that. So, there's the old playfield. looks like there. Yeah. Yeah. And then there's the old stars back And then there's the old stars back glass. But uh I think Oh yeah, terms of Medusa. This is pretty cool. These are the Reese rails. Reese was like um part of what was it? This flipping out pinball podcast and used to do this on the side for quite a while. make these custom rails brand new and it was very seasonal too because you need the right weather to do this. So, it was uh you know was a bit of a tricky operation and he is no longer doing these from what I understand. So, these will look gorgeous for Medusa. And yeah, so that is basically about it that's going on in here, right? I think we covered everything. Yeah. Cool. Okay. And um what was the last um episode? What was the the status of the whirlwind 2.0? Do you remember? I'm guessing it was just cabinet and I I'm guessing it was just cabinet and I was working on Sorry Shane, he's calling me. And every Sorry Shane, he's calling me. And every time you call me, I'm recording. I will call you back. I promise. I called you earlier today to try and call you back from last time and I didn't get a hold of you. So I will call you back. All right. So, I'm going to turn off this flash so I'm not blinding you. But, uh, do you want to go check that out? Yeah. Cool. I think that'll be a good Yeah. Cool. I think that'll be a good way to wrap up. You got some children to pick up from school and stuff like that, so we can't just muck around with pinball nonstop. Oh, yeah.
    19:12
    We do have some adulting to do from time to time, but here is the whirlwind 97% complete. Just waiting on the topper. That's it. That's it. And uh I think And uh I think not only should we have a look, it should be plugged in, right? But uh we should have a game before Jean comes and takes this away. Now, Jean asked you to make this the nicest whirlwind 2.0 in existence, and he was like, "I want it to be the best machine you've ever done." And you know what? You may have actually pulled it off cuz you took a bunch of extra steps on this. Hey there, choosy game. Hey there, choosy game. Um, including Um, including again, brand new CPR Playfield, but you added what, like four layers of clear coat on this thing. Yeah. And then Yeah. And then like wet sand and polished it in between each uh coat or is that like in between each uh coat or is that like a finishing thing? Just finished. Just finished. Oh, okay. Oh, okay. I wet sanded and then cleared it. I wet sanded and then cleared it. Yeah. Yeah. And then wet sanded and then polished And then wet sanded and then polished it. So, how do you even how do you polish So, how do you even how do you polish that? Like with a buffing wheel. Yeah. Yeah. So, that's like a lot of extra hours So, that's like a lot of extra hours that you put into reccleing the play field. Yeah. He said he wanted it like a piece Yeah. He said he wanted it like a piece of glass. So, well, it certainly looks like that. It is uh probably the shiniest playfield in here. And uh yeah, man. I think you really pulled it off. This thing is uh next level. This may in fact be the nicest whirlwind 2.0 in existence with the full art package. Got the art blades. And I mean, we went over the exterior before, but doesn't hurt to do it again. Did I tell you? Oh, yeah, I did tell you that um Loose Flip, it's a German pinball content provider, was kind of like streaming a Grazley Garage episode and uh I don't know, somehow like converted my voice to German. So, it was like someone clipped it. It was uh Stew sucks, I think it was. Clipped like a minute or two of the stream and you can kind of hear me speaking German in the background. Uh so shout out to Loose Flip. That's cool that they uh stream your uh episodes from time to time. Maybe they'll do it again on this one.
    22:36
    I noticed the the clip that they took was like the shack attack. I know. Out of all the machines that are I know. Out of all the machines that are in here, he kind of zeroed in on the shack attack. At least for the two-minute clip that that uh we got. I don't know how long he was streaming that for, but this thing is basically new top side, right? I mean, new ramps, new pop bumper stuffs, new pop bumper stuffs, um, new plastic set, drop targets, um, new plastic set, drop targets, rubber, of course, LEDs. Every one of these star posts is lit too, which you had real fun disassembling them all, desoldering them all and then removing them all, then resoldering them all. And then uh also you had painted the entire inside of the uh cabinet. So that was an extra of the uh cabinet. So that was an extra little touch Jean wanted. And yeah, love this apron decal. That's pretty cool. It's just a big magnet that goes over top. I've seen that before. And then uh yellow powder coating throughout the playfield as well. You got the wire form. And then the uh I guess that's about it for powder coating inside. Not much on It's not like it's full of, Not much on It's not like it's full of, you know, wire forms or anything, right? So, right? So, uh how we doing for time? uh how we doing for time? Uh we're okay for minute. Uh we're okay for minute. A minute. Okay. A minute. Okay. Now we're good. Now we're good. Quick game. Quick game. Y Y enough time for that. Okay. All right. enough time for that. Okay. All right. Well, let's uh play some whirlwind Total Chaos. But yeah, that's it. Topper to go. And um Topper is sitting waiting to get picked Topper is sitting waiting to get picked up. Oh, perfect. Oh, perfect.
