    Best Canadian places for electronic parts, bits and pieces?

    $8 is the standard for small parts. I was thinking of picking up a $9 magnetizer ( http://www.digikey.ca/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Detail&itemSeq=189031235&uq=635900018867169772) and shipping for the part is still only $8. I'm not sure why you would have been charged $20. Are you sure you...

    Switches double up or go to optic

    Hey BM, I cannot believe the problems you are having with this pin. If I had the cash I'd buy it back from you. My son misses it quit a bit. I enjoyed it a lot too. You should not have to double up a switch or switch to optics. The pin was designed to use only one switch and it works using...

    Inkochnito's Labels - I could use your expertise

    What are you guys printing these on? I'm looking to do up some coil wraps, and some serial number labels and was wondering how everyone prints these out. Is there a preferred paper that is easily wiped down or are you just using Avery labels? What about the different coil wrap colours...

    Best Canadian places for electronic parts, bits and pieces?

    Digikey if you want to pay low shipping and pay in CDN dollars. They usually have everything. If you can't find it, then you aren't using the correct search terms. Their shipping is so quick sometimes I'm still be entering my credit card number and the doorbell will ring.

    Embossed Graphic Overlay (Membrane Sticker)

    I figured someone on PREV might have had to do this before. It's not gaming related, well... I guess it could be. I need to recreate the control panel sticker for my dishwasher. The one on there has crapped out. It's not a standard sticker. It looks more like these...

    White Water - MPU Issue?

    So the only way to trouble shoot this is to switch out all the EPROMs? Aren't there 3 of them? What if I take a sound EPROM off another game and put it in? Have 2 from White Water installed and 1 from another WPC game. Do you think the MPU would be smart enough to realise it's the wrong...

    White Water - MPU Issue?

    I guess I could always pull each EPROM off one at a time and then start up Whirlpool Challenge and try to trigger the music myself. Well, it's a place to start! I'll report back in a bit...

    White Water - MPU Issue?

    So I'm in Test Mode. I figured I would try to understand the signal path the music is taking. In Test Mode I see T.7 Sound + Music but inside the menu there are only a handful of music and sounds in there. The one I'm looking for its not there along with a bunch of others. There doesn't...

    White Water - MPU Issue?

    I've narrowed down the sound bite that is randomly playing. Each and every time it is the Whirlpool Challenge music, but more specifically it's the LAST CHANCE music for the Whirlpool Challenge. It's the faster, higher tempo music.

    White Water - MPU Issue?

    For giggles, I'll try turning the flipper sounds OFF and see if I'm able to activate them 10 minutes later. Good point on the MPU. What you're saying makes sense to me. I'll try disconnecting ribbon cabling from the MPU first.

    White Water - MPU Issue?

    There is a separate option to turn off flipper activated sounds. Right now I have attract sounds OFF and flipper button sounds ON. I'll start with the ribbon cables. Might post this over on *gulp* Pinside as well to hear what they have to say. I'll post it as a generic WPC - Sound Issues so...

    White Water - MPU Issue?

    Hi guys, I've been having an issue with the music on my White Water. It happens randomly. I have not been able to reproduce it. There are two things happening, but I believe that both things are related to the same problem. Here is what is happening; 1) Pin is on. Attract sounds are OFF...

    SW Force Awakens pinball?

    Nice. I've seen a Frozen gingerbread palace but not the Falcon. I checked the condom aisle at Shopper's Drug Mart today. No Star Wars condoms... yet. Here's hoping!

    SW Force Awakens pinball?

    "General" you mean. We might have a new winner with the coffee whitener. At least with the orange's they are BB8 shaped? Ha! I guess the container is kind of Bobafettish. I guess I should spell it Bobafetish. :D Limited Edition... I can just see all the Star Wars geeks at home thinking...

    SW Force Awakens pinball?

    Okay, that one is just odd. I thought Frozen was bad, but Star Wars is on more shit than Elsa and Anna and Olaf combined. I'll put it those oranges up against an R2D2 Cool Mist Dehumidifier I saw at JYSK. I didn't think to take a picture.

    SW Force Awakens pinball?

    I saw a Darth Vader toaster today at Bed, Bath and Beyond. When you put the toast down it burned STAR WARS into the toast. Disney is definitely whoring out the license. I wonder if Lucas is enjoying this new era?
