Yeah look great. You're much better than sulzerned.

To be precise it's actually alkaline and you use acid ie vinegar to neutralize it. A lot of folks use vinegar but I've had bad experiences with silk screen lifting in the past so I won't use it. I prefer something neutral like IPA. Apart from that the amount of boards I get in smelling of a fish&chip shop......

Well they are too bright despite me buying a lower output warm white set - back to bulbs I recon 🙂

This is defo worth a watch if you have not seen it, Rob will give you an idea whats involved stripping the cab down - its an older MPU2 but same cab as Nudges Unlimited

Well it’s finally happened after two years of searching for one and missing out 3 times ☹️ I finally got a fantastic offer from a very generous member Mike B 😁, who had had the machine for 5 years but had never got round to fixing it up the machine had never even been unwrapped from where it had been sent by courier as the silver sprint courier label dated 27/02/2016 was still attached to the shrink wrap that was undisturbed around the machine , so I was not going to miss out a fourth time and it was off to sunny Cornwall on Saturday morning it was a 600 mile round trip that took 11hrs in total but well worth it as this was the perfect 1st rebuild project for me , so after I had met Mike and his wife we loaded the machine up into the car I thanked Mike once again and I set off for home , once I got home straight away the shrink wrap was off to check the machine out I knew the cabinet has some damage as you could see in the photos Mike put up there was a few bits damaged but I hopefully have a donor cab lined up so that didn’t worry me ,as expected the cabinet was too far gone to be repaired as the chip board had got damp and swollen and cracked in a few places on the sides and the MDf base had seen better days like most machines of this age so it was time to start the strip down ,anyway that’s enough for tonight I will do another post tomorrow night with some more pictures of the strip down in progress ,thanks again Mike it was very nice to meet you and your wife and I hope I can do this machine proud and give it a new life thank you MPU Mecca and very kind members cheers dave 🍻

Or alkaline 😁 See I said I wasn't an expert lol.

I think it’s 200

I'm pretty sure MPU3 is 48-step, the same as MPU4 and pretty much everything else except early JPM.

Pretty sure it's 400.

Just a tho John,, if you need any reel motors or sensors I have a few if you need any ,, 😊

Great job, really looks good. All your hard work has definitely been worth it. Thanks for all your posts showing the progress. Good Luck.

I was going to ask about the board and battery. Wow that is mega lucky but get it snipped off as soon as you can to avoid any further attack from the killer battery. If there is any corrosion get it neutralized ASAP

Here’s a few photos of her all finished , I will try and do a couple of decent videos over the next couple of evenings and put them up for anyone interested in watching with some BIG THANK YOU’S to everyone that has helped and offered to help me with this project cheers 🍻

yep you are right player , I did think about doing that but I had the deck powder coated black so I would have had to touch up where i moved the bars , and then I had my little brain wave with the washers and rubber grommets which I gave a go and it’s ended up looking ok , I now have a spare deck mount in good condition with no rust which I might swop over eventually 👍

Sorted guys, seems i just needed to set up a password for windoze

Here’s a copy of the conversion manual it might help some one else in the future
