All plastics (except for the middle top rollover plastic).

as soon as you get a stripped pf i will start this one, already started hankins howzat table too, redraw is about 50% and build about 30%
"thanks to destruk again for the howzat resources, how an american can have so many pics of a purely australian table and theme was a huge surprise"

my dad worked for hankin in a far away galaxy long long ago, so i want to get a few of these done i just wish he kept all the original flyers and stuff from back then.

howzat was a sweet table, maybe cause it was a dennis lillee table, would have been great if hankin hung around for a warney table instead of making video jukebox's.

Sorry Freddie .... I have sold this one on to some local collectors. We have someone local that can get it working, but they can sort that out.
They are trying to collect all 5 machines made by Hankin.
I will still have access to it but havnt had the time to completely strip it.

Phil, I can probably help with pics of the other ones as they come in.

Freddie, I will have 1st offer to buy it back and will let you know.

Dedrok, those pics of the PF look a little noisy. I checked details & your ISO is set to like 800. Maybe you have ISO set to auto & did have bad lighting? However, I'd still stick with a manual low ISO setting, like 200 or less. Then even if the pics turn out a little dark, its nothing a little photoshop can't fix, but more importantly you don't get all that noise in the pic.
I've enjoyed my pinball pics much better since using ISO of like 100 in good lighting. I like using flash as well, for the most part. I would only NOT use flash if I had great lighting and/or a tripod. & even then I'd probably still take some with flash. & there are always tricks you can do to work around glare.
Just thought I'd mention it cuz I had thought you maybe used a cell phone camera for these, but you got a nice Canon & IMHO these are the best for pinball pics. Just might need to tweak a setting or two.

Talking to the new owners of ESB the other day, and they have it stripped and are getting complete stripped playfield pics for me.
I should have them sometime soon.
They had it fixed and working last week ..... it was great to play it again .... especially with the improved flipper strength.

@ Phil .... they will have these ESB ones, also they have 2 Howzats and will get more stripped pics of that.

They intend to get all five Hankin machines collected, strip playfields and give me pics.

We recently just missed out on an Orbit 1, and may have a lead on some FJ's for a good price.
There has been a few Shark's about in the past few years, so hopefully it wont be to hard to grab one of them.
