[QUOTE="TerryRed, post: 240424, member: 5962"] Well, now it is time for more upgrades.... as a result this is what happens in the middle of a project upgrade... total mess everywhere which makes my wife sooooo happy! [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFvVJGNi0gM]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFvVJGNi0gM[/url] [URL=http://s92.photobucket.com/user/thagerty/media/project%20mess.jpg.html][IMG]http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l34/thagerty/project%20mess.jpg[/img][/URL] I always wanted to add in a plunger and a big LAUNCH button. Can't easily find either in Canada, and buying from the US is costly with our crappy CDN dollar and costly shipping. So, I found a place in Ottawa that does repairs and sells parts called Pinball Medics. [url=https://pinballmedics.ca/]https://pinballmedics.ca/[/url] Since I was taking my daughter to Ottawa Comi-Con, I was able to stop by his place and buy what I needed from him. He had everything except for the mounting plate for the plunger, which I didn't need anyway. He's a great guy and had a fantastic Pinball collection which I sadly didn't have time to check out.... :( Here's a video demonstration of my plunger setup: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QM7a84cmRTU]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QM7a84cmRTU[/url] [URL=http://s92.photobucket.com/user/thagerty/media/plunger%20update.jpg.html][IMG]http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l34/thagerty/plunger%20update.jpg[/img][/URL] Hopefully I can maybe make a couple of custom tilt-bobs to work as a digital nudge type of setup. Then, I'm off to update the control panel with a different button layout, a third 4-way joystick, and all three joysticks will have BAT tops instead of BALL tops. After all this is done, its just a waiting game for all my parts to arrive from China, so I can install feedback via 10 solenoids. I'll also be installing led strip lighting to act as 5 rgb flashers, addressable led strip lighting / matrix for animation, white strobes, and red / blue beacons (LED strobe versions).
