    Well, Now I Own A Pinball Machine Too!

    Last pic, hard to see, but the flipper plastic is broken. Also, cracked rubber. And there you have it! Whaddya all think? Again, any advice, I'll take. Complete noob here, so start me off slow. I downloaded the instruction booklet, that's a start. I found this website...

    Well, Now I Own A Pinball Machine Too!

    The 'star' on this side pops up at wonky angle. It can be pushed back to normal, but as soon as a ball rolls over, it goes crooked again. It works though! Targets don't have even spacing between them. Hopefully easy fix? Some warped plastics. I believe SKILL_SHOT knows a method to flatten...

    Here's some close-ups. You can really see the table wear. I think that's my number 1 thing I want to know if and how that's fixable. Left slingshot plastic is broken off at bottom. You can see the upper right pop bumper has a broken piece of plastic at the bottom. Is it just me, or is...

    And now what you really wanna see, the playfield! There is zero shine on this thing. Layer of dirt, the inserts don't let much light through. I doubt in the 15 years the guy owned it that he ever cleaned it. Looks like I'll need a little 1x right there!

    Coin door is in decent shape, I think. Plastic on the front is cracked, the coin return door is rusted. The lock is new I believe, or so it looks. Gives you the beginnings of understanding how the cabinet looks too. Speaking of...

    Well, Now I Own A Pinball Machine Too!

    You all ready for some pinball porn? I snapped a whole mess of pics, and I welcome whatever comments you make. I honestly have no clue where to start on this machine, so those in the know, start pointing me in directions! If anything catches your eye, good or bad, it's all info for me to digest...

    Actually he was holding a fire sale because she drained the bank account and he needed to save his house. You could tell he was barely keeping it together. Said he was out of state on a turkey hunt (uh, okay?) and got home yesterday to find all her stuff completely removed from the house. Then a...

    Well, Now I Own A Pinball Machine Too!

    Look at what is now sitting in my garage... This was completely out of the blue for me. So I was given a "gift" of $500 from my in-laws. We get these time to time, and they come with rules. Rule #1, money can't be used to pay bills. Rule #2, it has to be spent on something fun. So...

    Stern metallica pinball

    yeah yeah yeah. The only one I'd consider going to is the first one, as it's closest and has 5 machines. Still a 30+ minute drive though.

    Stern metallica pinball

    Well, you're assuming I've actually played an AC/DC table! I'm dying to, but I haven't. Don't know where one is in my area. No, I'm basing it entirely off of looks and what game play video I've seen. The music is a wash for me, as I like them about equally.

    Tournament!!!

    I wound up coming in at #33 Was really hoping to get inside top 20, but just couldn't make it happen. I knew Big Shots would be my doom, same as Gorgar, but really surprised myself with my Black Hole positioning. Where I really needed to make up ground was in ToM and TOTAN, and I just couldn't...
