hi all, (hi Herm as promised here's my finished work for now) Bought a used super chexx in march this year, been working all my spare time on this since then. It was pretty dirty when i bought it, but overall it was still in pretty decent shape. its a 2005. It came with the classic ugly red & blue players so i had to remedy to all that. Before you ask, theres approximatly 30 hours of work in there. And you wont see these changes on the pics, but I also upgraded the Coin Doors mechanism so they now both work with canadien 1$ looney. I changed two, 4’’ inch metal bolts, underneath the ice surface near the face off spot. All of you regular players probably noticed that too while playing, theres a few spots which retains the puck because of magnetism. So does the puck ejector solenoid but this one i am stuck with it so far. So I decided to replace them with two 4’’ inch brass bolts instead. Now theres 2 less magnetism spot on my ice surface, and the puck no longer deviate when it goes over the brass bolts. Next step, i am going to make, all the STICKERS around the cabinet, both 16'' inch diameter stickers (montreal & boston LOGO) to apply on both side of the podium, plus the side ones on the table, and the center ice Montreal Bell center logo....if any of you have ideas for me, i am open to any kind of customising.. Again enjoy the pics…. Attachments:

thanks herm.
Hell YEAH he's black!! i couldnt miss this opportunity ! Next step is all the stickers around the cabinet,
my dream come true thought would be to add a small flashing light right behind the net. I'll check to see if it would be possible to do. I have friends who are electro technicians, maybe it could be connected with the goal detector somehow, i have to see.
i watch all youre video on youtube with your gopro camera, very funny !
talk to you soon

Oh nice, I'm glad someone watches them, I have fun making them. Just a silly time waster. I know i used to search for good super chexx videos before I had a table and I couldn't find squat. So just trying to promote the game!

Its kind of funny that you mention that, i was also searching everyday back a few months ago for Super Chexx videos, and the ones on youtube we're pretty old, and you couldnt ear all the sound with all the bells & whistle, and you can't get a clear shot at everything the table has to offer.
It would be fun to make one, with a fast editing, different camera angles, and keep the original sound in there without hearing all the bang of the handles. along with the original sound you could also add maybe a few other classic's Rick Jeannerrett's commentaries and more crowd noise in there just for the fun of it.
Anyway have fun ! i'll keep watiching them
