This page shows pictures of my Flash games as well as a Flash restoration effort.  I bought two games with one going to my friend Jeff.  The game had some missing parts and didn't work when I got it.  Ended up spending a fair amount of time troubleshooting and repairing the main CPU board, sound card, power supply and card, lamp display board, and the 6 digit displays.  If you know anything about Flash, you realize that's every board found in the game.

This web page shows pictures below starting with some flipper voltage readings, game flyers, score card sheets for both 3 ball and 5 ball games plus instruction cards you can download, an original target scan, another version created by Cody Chunn, my modified version of the original target decal, an 8.5 inch wide version of 300dpi targets plus spinner decals, and then I follow up with some of the restoration work on Jeff's game starting with the initial condition of the game and moving towards the end of the restoration effort.

Note that I have added an example of Cody Chunn's excellent Flash Decals that you can buy at a very reasonable price.  You get a complete set of target decals that are laminated that will last you longer than you will probably own the game.  Send Cody email for details!

My Original Flash Target Scan.
My modified version of the original Flash target decal.	Target and Spinner decal sheet at 300 dpi, 8.5 inches wide. Send me email if you want the high quality stuff instead of this optimized version.  Cody's decal (shown a few pics up) is actually much brighter and colorful than mine due to spending lots of time and adding more colors.
