    TIP Don't let your TOTAN fade away

    Drano you are insane. I mean that as a compliment. Just reading your posts made my hand cramp up. You are an artist.

    Dr@No's fun filled (and often long-winded) restorations

    This is just plain cool. My only question would be how do you colour match a Sharpie? They come in many colours, but some colours even Sharpie does not make.

    Original themes and women's titles from Stern?

    One word: Frozen (by Disney/Pixar) as a pinball theme would sell.

    CPR Repro Plastic Sets

    Oh man, I must resist... Those F-14 repro's are beautiful! I'm lucky I have no way to rivet the clear plastics back together due to them being those special rivets.

    PAPA Pinball Video Search Tool

    Thanks for posting. This search is soooo much faster. Is it just me or is the PAPA search deathly slow?

    What movie deserves a pinball?

    Blues Brothers for me. Some great sound effects and music in that one. This theme might be a bit out of the demographic though. I have a few years on most of the members here. :)

    Pinball licencing 101: how much, why – and Harry Potter

    *Reposting here as I didn't get any reply or comments over at MAACA. Very cool read Pavlov. I've wanted to know about licensing forever. Glad you asked him about Harry Potter, although most of us already knew the answer to that one. It does seem there is a glimmer of hope there thought. I...

    Eyeball madness (Pin-bot conversion kit...)

    It's kinda cool. I hope they didn't use a decend Pin-Bot for this conversion.

    What Do You Do? Promote Yourself!

    Both. I did not have a permanent rink that I worked at. I started off on Zamboni and then moved to Olympia. Olympia's were cheaper, but more reliable to work with so the City slowly converted over and sold off most of the Zamboni's to High School's.

    CPR - New CPR Playfield Preorder System Launched Today

    I've never used CPR in the past but I have browsed their website often. I'm surprised their old system worked for as long as it did. I appreciate the trust factor they had in order commitments from customers, but as a business model the old system is terrible. If CPR had a board of directors...

    Do you let pre-schoolers play your pins?

    I'm surprised Geoff doesn't have to replace the coin doors on the games at TARG. Every time I've been there all I see are kids going from machine to machine looking for rejected coins that have been left behind.

    Do you let pre-schoolers play your pins?

    I just rebuilt my flippers. I played a game without any issues. Then let my 5 year old have a go. He blew the flipper board fuse in less than a minute. The best way to test your pin for durability is to let those pre-schoolers play. :)

    DIY - Light Up LED Flipper Buttons

    Yeah I didn't like the bleeding either which is why I reversed this. I do like your idea of tying it into the START button. There is a similar thread over on Pinside where I asked how people controlled the bleeding. Most responses were "what bleeding?" or "I just left it" which were less than...

    I'm a lab specialist for R&D. I work in television now (production switchers), but worked telecomm for 15 years prior. Prior to that I worked 10 years in the silkscreen t-shirt/promo business as a printer, and I also worked part-time with the City as a Zamboni attendant (yes, I was a Zamboni...
