Cabinet is in base.This is where I spotted the problem.

The shooter rod cut out was too high for this game.On Medusa they lowered it because the front sits lower.What you see in t

The stencils for the head are identically matched so it will not line up and fit behind the frame of the back box on one si

This is the right stencil for the head.
What I will do is make them match and go with a more symmetrical look from side

On the right side the gap between the lower pattern and start of the column is about 3/16ths of an inch.

On the left side it is the same.Nice and thin.

On the stencil the right side gap is 3/4 of an inch.
