    The Pinball Diaries (what did you do today?)

    Yes, that's why I'm planning on doing the rebuild. It's definitely not happening as often as before, but it's still happening, so I'll probably replace the nuts, clean the gearbox, and reflow the solder joints. If THAT doesn't work, who knows. Just waiting on the parts to come into starburst...

    ACDC Pro

    Maybe I just need to spend more time with it, but this game hasn't clicked for me yet. What I like about LOTR or TSPP is that you're advancing the game for more than just raw score, and ACDC doesn't seem to have that. Probably just a function of the theme, but it's part of the package, so it's...

    5 Awesome NES Facts!

    Neat animation. Still have my original NES hooked up, and amazingly it still works. Other than having to clean the contacts every so often (and them being a little flaky to begin with), it's lasted much better than any of the disc based consoles... Funny how that whole design was just so the...

    The Pinball Diaries (what did you do today?)

    Nice-I'm planning on doing the same once I get the parts. I ordered both through Starburst Toronto, so hopefully they get in before Christmas. I think I'm also going to take apart/clean the gearbox at the same time, since I've read that can be a real improvement as well. How worn did the nuts...

    Foxconn Intern Claims to Have Sabotaged PS4 Manufacture

    From the sounds of things these aren't impossible to find, but are people really paying $2k for one now? Maybe I should have kept that preorder... I had both the PS4 and XB1 reserved, but ended up dropping the playstation. No need to own both yet-not enough time to play the exclusives for...

    Smokey and the Bandit Pin ~ update

    Great job-are you doing an entirely new PF from scratch on this, or just working on top of the old one that was there?

    World Poker Tour

    Didn't Jim buy yours? Neat game that you don't see too often, and kind of amazing that it's a stern with that many drop targets. I think there are some alternate translites out there that make up for at least some of the bad art.

    Questions about stripping a playfield

    Thanks-I'll give that a try next time. As for the apron, it looked to me like it was screwed down in the middle as well, almost directly on top of the flipper mechs, but now I'll have to take another look.

    Has anyone rigged something up to keep a playfield vertical?

    Re: Has anyone rigged something up to keep a playfield verti Good call on the clamps-I'll have to try that.
