Here's few pics I took for anyone interested in how the warning text gets screened on the back of a pin head. Yeah, it's a bit of a pain to do and a hell of a mess to clean up, but so much easier than shipping them out to get done.

Thanks again Bryan for explaining in detail how to do this screening process. I would be interested in getting a screen too. Please post who has these. If this is top secret information, please contact me :)

I just posted a few pics yesterday of my masking job on the back on an IJ. A little different than the "box out" mask, and not near as nice as a new screen:
One question, though: Are the Warning texts on the back of heads centered differently? My IJ text seems to be centered slightly lower on the head. Were there some that are higher and more centered like Bryan's pics?

Mark,
The text on the back of WPC games will be all over the place, low, high, left , right , crooked and even smeared .

Thanks, Jim!
So centered would probably be the preferred re-screening position.

no problem bryan, glad it did work out and glad to see it was worth the hassle. the major problem with the backbox screening situation is the cost of shipping the backbox back and forth and also the set up, not too mention the ridiculous mess it makes to just do one game at a time.
if anyone noticed there is also the smaller lower cabinet screen I had done as well and included, so you actually have both screens for the back of your game on one screen.
I would think this might be something cool to be offered at a show, where guys could bring their backboxes and save the shipping costs ?
This was just a private project I did for myself and bryan, if anyone is interested in the screens, just give me a shout and I'll point you in the right direction. It was extremely hard for me to find a place that was willing to set this up for me as it's a rather outdated process that not alot of places are doing anymore.
I do feel honestly that if you are only doing one game, it is definitely probably not the way to go, but if you just want to be self- reliant or you do a bunch of games. it is available.
also working on getting the proper paper-like labels done which are located on the backbox and game, as they are not true stickers, but rather paper applied with contact glue and/or applied by a heat transfer. however, most WPC-95 games have sticker like labels, so this is mostly interesting for WPC-S and earlier. Once again, I am not a business of any sorts, just trying to get my restored games redone to look as original as possible.
Jim is so right. It's kind of like a box of chocolates.
Please, before anyone sends me another private Email, please read the part of my post where I got the screen from someone else. I did not have this made.
Looks like the Gman needs to get a bunch made and sell them.

Thanks for sharing, Bryan. I've been contemplating a similar project for System 11 games. If you, are anyone else has already made a Sys 11 screen, I'd love to know about it before I get around to reinventing the wheel.

here are pics of the screens I had made. The transparent sticker copy is just an addition and can be used as a guide to check placement before screening.
for those who are/were interested, I was able to get the pricing together if you do indeed want a screen or everything included, however we will need at least 10 screen orders and at least 5 complete orders to get started otherwise individual set-up and burn fees get rather expensive.
