Re-assembly Part 1

Made some progress today re-assembling the play field.  I am missing a few things, like some rubber rings (the kit I ordered was incomplete, as I found out from here: http://www.pinwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Terminator_2:_Judgement_Day_Shop_Guide

I also am by some unholy act missing some screws, even though I went to great pains to label them and keep them all in their own little drug baggie.  Oh well, screws are easy to come by, just annoying that it holds up my progress.

The materials for the pop bumper rebuild are on their way (pray for me).

Here are the latest pics:






Missing a rubber here.


Missing a screw here for this metal ball guide.


Missing one of the machine screw/locknut combos here that go through the hand.


Shopping List:
  • #4 x 3/8" sheet metal screw for ball guide
  • Machine screw and locknut for the hand plastic
  • More rubbers!


Cleaning the parts

Here are come pictures of the cleaning process for T2. 
  • I tumbled the metal parts using Walnut shell media I got from a pet store. 
  • I degreased and Novus 2'd the plastics.
  • I used 'Neverdull' and steel wool on the metal wireforms and ball guides. I think they turned out pretty good!




















The carnuba wax is hard!
