Six tables in six days

Today's table is one that I picked up in a "two beat up EM's for $300" deal a couple of years ago.  Restoration included a repaint of the cab/head, new backglass, mechanical fixes and a lot of the playfield  repainting and clear coat.   I scanned the playfield and plastics before selling the machine so the geometry of the table is spot on.

@scottacus Can I ask what you did for restoring the cabinet art? Did you re-stencil everything or just touch up?  The end results look great!

I used a projector to display the art on  a piece of cardboard and traced the artwork onto the cardboard to make multiple masks.  These were then used to airbrush the stencil so that I got some over spray around the stencil.  The cab was base painted and flocked before this.

That's really something, thanks for sharing the process!
