You guys buying overseas equipment take a good look at this! It's not a given that you will receive this type of equip., but it's a real good possibility! TABLE BEFORE! [img]/content/btubb/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/mad.gif[/img]



Table after. Now don't you guys make fun of the colors! After living with Battleship grey for 10 years and nicotine coated aluminum for almost 40, cut me some slack and let me enjoy this!

Not completely finished and waiting on parts, thought we'd post it anyhow.

Kingram,

Curious....do they glow under blacklights???

I bowled in a center in the early 80s that had 8 lanes painted red-white-blue tables and I always thought it looked pretty sweet.

Looks great! Never thought about the posibility to paint the table. How many do you have to to still in your center? Keep the good work going.

Great job! I always paint the aluminum parts silver and all the other parts black. The parts clean up very easy down the road. I've never had a complete table to paint, but yours is the ultimate paint job. It shows that you care about your work. NICE !

Thanks Jerry, amfpinboy and Pinch.
Also painted the underside of the table. Have only done one so far but since we have finally gotten around to rebuild the tables, it should only take us a couple of months.

Looks like the cutaway turbine engines from school, chrome plating the cups?

How long before you finish the whole center?

With 24/7 summer coming up, we are shooting for 20 machines in 2 month, and that will be pushing it.

A very nice job. Given what you had to start with, it is doubly impressive. Congrats!

Yes, aluminum can be chromed, they plate it layer upon layer with other metals first so the chrome will stick.

Or maybe GOLD plate.......
