  • It's time to shop out my Lethal Weapon 3 pinball machine! With the electronics fixed up. the rest is just cosmetic so it should be easy... right? I knew taking apart a pinball playfield would be a lot of work, but wow, that was a lot of work! This episode features stripping the playfield, cleaning the parts, and cleaning and waxing the playfield. This is my first pinball "shop job" and there is definitely a lot to learn!

    One tool that I found helped with removing the nuts from plastics without unscrewing the post is Titan's Pinwrench. It's a thin piece of stainless steel with a 1/4" notch in one end and a 5/16" notch in the other. It's thin enough to fit under a plastic and hold the hex portion of the post while you unscrew the nut from on top of it. Marcos sells a similar tool under the name Stud-Buddy.

      Thanks for the tip! I'll pick one up the next time I'm placing an order. Definitely sounds like it would come in handy

    was going to make a joke about using an ultrasonic cleaner on the parts because this looked like servicing a wristwatch. then oh

    Can you link the ultrasonic cleaner and tumbler + medium you use? I'm about to start my own first project on this scale

    • @ThePinballNoob

      Sure! So the Ultrasonic Cleaner is just one I picked up at Harbor Freight, but it is pretty much identical to this one: amzn.to/4bYN06g
      For the Tumbler, I ordered a Berrys 500 model with an extra bowl so I could have one filled with walnut (better for removing heavy corrosion, won't polish as shiny), and one filled with corn (lighter and polishes better). For heavily corroded parts I start with walnut for 24 hours and then do corn for 24, with a spoonful of Mothers Mag and Aluminum polish in each bowl. For parts that are in decent shape, I just use corn cob to polish.
