It's All Your Fault FARSIGHT

Mails HERE!

1 red #555, 2 orange, 8 warm whites.
3x flex green #44's I also 2 more reds and did a stop order but that didnt work...last time there was a mis up I got freee bulbs, but those where the ones I need now. DOH!
My brother orderd this for me, I flipped through it really quick and learned a few things.

It has alot of info from buying to fixing.
If I can somehow copy it without infringement, I'll do my best.

I modified my buttons to resemble the ones I replaced by removing the spring and filling a groove for the C-clip and removing imperfections. Theye were binding and sticking out a hair too much. Removal of the spring and a run around with a jewler file set did the job, since I had it open.
LIGHT SHOW!

replaced the regular bulbs with ULTRA BRIGHTS! from left to right. WW-OR-RED-OR-WW it looks like fire!
I also replaced the white skulls whith super bright #555's here you see regular Vs. super LEDs

Hey Kevlar look at these! Im going to 2 stores wednesday to find these, if only I could find a way to hook up tp my flashers but I'll probably run into the same dilema 1 or the other.

 

[Kevlar]

There's lots of those led strip/tape lights on eBay, really cheap too.

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

I dont want to wait

Ok so I went to stores today looking for these and NOTHING! So I may have to go internet shipping route and wait. Today one ofe my dream pins came on CL in my town at a ridiculous price! I was even emailed by my friend who knows I love this table! After i had replied, I cant let this slip through my fingers not this close! I will offer another $100 if they get nultiple offers or $150! If you know me you know what game Im talking about In the mean time Ive been playing with the lights i do have and have stopped half way because I would like your opinions.
I put a green flex under the cannon plastic on the right side only. My original plan was to have one between each target with corisponding colors green gaurds=green lights red gaurds=red lights but it affected the color of the art like red/blue 3D highlighting only those colors, so i moved it after some thought and came up with this.

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

My initial thought was to have red on the left and green on the right but then I thought that might be TOO much red and break up the cimetray of the lights and table...so, should I go green left and right? As the green will make the red targets look darker it may be unbalenced that way too as red dosnt reflect green very well wich can be seen in the last picture.

It looks far, far better with the cannon lit up green. The one thing I've been thinking about your table pis this entire time is "It would look so much better if those cannons weren't so dark and the upper playfield wasn't so red."

I definitely vote for the green cannons!

 

[Metalzoic]

Or make the GI lighting on the left Green with a red cannon.
And the GI lighting on the right red with a green cannon.

Or some other asymmetrical color pattern.

I think a colour that would really tie in the lower and upper playfield lighting colour schemes would be by using yellow lighting for the cannons.

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

yellow is the least bright LED and green LEDs under red will make it look black and I dont have that many extras. I'll try one of my extra warm white star post lights. The machine that I seen on CL was gone within hours and no response. I knew it was too good to be true.

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

Ok heres with a red flex and as I suspected too much red on one side isnt going to visually pleasing.

and here I put a star post light warm white nowhere near as bright but brings out the detail of the gunner.

I think it will look best with greens both sides.

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

Ok heres both greens. I like it.

 

[Kevlar]

That's how I like it, nice and symmetrical.

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

Yeah me too! and it lights up the backside of the flippers!

 

[SilverBallFiend]

Symmetry is important I agree. Not feeling the green though.

 

[Carl Spiby]

I think we need an updated video of this in action.

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

Alright I'll update video. First I got to button it up.

I like how it highlights the cannons. They should be a focal point on this table. Big thumbs up!
