    "Dialing In" your pin

    Brewmanager's HS has an especially frustrating side ramp. It's very telling that Steve Ritchie's Rollergames, which has nearly the same layout as HS, has a magnet to help the player with the side ramp shot. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    "Dialing In" your pin

    I've always found this shot particularly difficult, as a non-HS owner. Hard to gauge the sweet spot when you step up to one you've never played before. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    Inviting price-police -and all others! Setting prices on used games...

    I price my games fairly, with regard to what I paid for them or have into them, and for the most part, respect handshake deals regarding buy-backs and dibs. When I take a game to a show for public sale, only then are all bets off. I've adhered to this policy so much so, I've only had to sell...

    Grail found - My first Pin! Long Night!

    I've got exactly three in white. And some in amber, whichever you prefer. You can PM me your address and I'll drop them in the mail later in the week.

    Grail found - My first Pin! Long Night!

    I should have a couple lying around, too. I'm just looking for replacement value for them. On second thought, if I've got'em, I'll throw them in the mail for ya. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    LED questions!!!

    In my opinion there really isn't a whole lot of value in a wholesale replacing of all incadescent flashers to LED flashers. They tend to be on the expensive side and the colour flash is so quick and infrequent a regular incandescent does the job just fine. However, I do understand this is your...

    Looking for opinions

    I'd keep it original...with a high polish. But I think black would work, too. Any of those other colours are kind of gaudy (IMHO) and may hurt you down the road if you ever have to sell the game as its a very acquired taste. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    SOLD Bally Eight ball

    They still $4.50USD at PBR. Steve Young tends to not jack up prices as much as the others. A five-pack of the stickers can be had from Big Daddy Enterprises for $20USD. Little things like that are certainly the cherry on top of a machine, and a must for a high value restore.

    I'm a lousy player too!! What are the chances of two lousy players living so close together??

    3 spots in Pinball for Change this Saturday

    Emphasis on "relaxed"! I'll have beer, water and some snacks on hand. If you require sugary drinks or a specific type of beer, you are welcome to bring your own. Looking forward to having the Pinball for Change return to Burlington! Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    What Really Matters

    I'm with you. I didn't get asked to join in and lend a hand either! Oh well, we can save our backs for the next big collector move. Congrats on the new space.

    Color dmd

    Never been a fan of the upscaling. Looks like everything is made out of Play-Doh or melted wax.

    Here is the display. I'm certain it works 100%, just need Rollergames back up to take a proof photo for you. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    WTB Displays for Riverboat Gambler or 16 digit glass

    I've got an extra. Just waiting on a board to be repaired by Menace to make sure the display will work 100% in my Rollergames...if you can wait a week or two so i can test it, we can work something out. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    Spiroagnew's SPRAY & PRAY Cabinet Re-Stenciling

    Painting cabinets into November! I could probably keep going and pull another game from my pile of projects to tear into, but I think it is time to shut it down for the season. I finished off with two projects I did simultaneously. Drano’s Williams Heat Wave This game had been repainted at...

    TOP THREE PINS on your Wantlist!

    How do I not remember starting this thread? Glad to see it has some legs. I got two of the games on my original wantlist, Creech and EATPM, and I've decided BOP just isn't for me. My tastes have changed greatly, too. Here's my new top three wanted for what it's worth: 1 - Gottlieb Kings and...

    Pinball machine parts

    Starburst/Playdium at the Ronson address above has a parts desk...you can go in and talk to a real person during business hours! They'll likely have the basic parts you need on hand...and they can order the oddball stuff. Other than that, you can try Pinball Medics, relatively new to the...
