    Tim's Rollergames thread

    Just finished setting up my RG in the new basement. A favourite of visitors...I believe I posted an ode to my love for the game somewhere on the site. How is the plastic above the lock drop targets? Mine was destroyed and obviously unattainable...so I cut one out of Lexan and printed out the...

    Film with pinball connection: "Tim's Vermeer"

    Being a huge fan of illusionists Penn and Teller, I went into the city to check out their Penn Jillette produced/Teller directed film “Tim’s Vermeer”. Tells a story of Tim Jenison--a tech guy with an interest in fine art--who recognizes something odd about the technique used in the paintings of...

    Spiroagnew's basement thread

    Free........free at last! The end is in sight! Still a few days before they get set up but at least they are out. On a disappointing note, the carpet is more tasteful now that it's down in the large space. It was more vulgar when looking at small samples. This makes my wife happy. It's two...

    Metallica Pinball, Choose 2 Songs for upcoming code update

    Re: Metallica Pinball, Choose 2 Songs for upcoming code upda This is actually quite a nice "reward" for having folks wait so long for a code update. Seems that Stern has finally turned a corner--listening to the opinions of their fans (a large majority being home use buyers!) A welcomed...

    Spiroagnew's basement thread

    I think they laid things out properly...because I told them how everything was going to be laid out. On the long wall where I will be putting my pins I will have three seperate circuits at my disposal with two outlets for each circuit. That should work, right?

    Spiroagnew's basement thread

    I did look into it...but it seemed a bit overkill. I realize collections can get out of hand easily, but I can't see the basement housing more than 8 machines in it total at one time (my wife has a cap of 7 anyhow)...and I'm under the impression that what they have marked off there as "arcade"...

    Bless the electricians. They labelled the circuits "ARCADE". As if my modest collection qualifies as an arcade. At least they gave me plenty of options to plug in machines! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Awesome half-hour interview with the SKIT-B dude in the Pinheadz Podcast Episode 3 (linked above). The passion and dedication I heard in this guy's voice alone makes me want to sign up for Pred. The interview got into how he started out on the path down pin manufacturing, working with the...

    Another Coast 2 Coast...comments about the Stern X-Men update and continuing the discussion about Star Trek Pro vs. Premium...judging by the response Nate got after his support of the Pro version, there are lots of listeners out there that drank the Premium Kool-Aid. COAST2COAST PINBALL -...

    Pinball Hall of Fame/Annex, Las Vegas visit

    I've walked in the past, when I was younger. Don't do it. It's a hike, hot or not. Waste a lot of valuable pin time. Pick up the 201 bus in front of the Tropicana. $2.25 I believe is the fare. You'll see the HOF on the left after a fair drive...or just ask the driver to tell you when to...

    Production value of this podcast still blows my mind. Helps when the main guy's day job is "radio host". Give this show a listen--they have quickly become my favorite pinball podcast out there...maybe its the accents? Maybe its the fresh perspective of the hobby? PINHEADZ PINBALL PODCAST -...
