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

    HIGH SPEED STIFF Part 5 So I've been spending more and more time with this swap. Firstly, here's a public service announcement for anyone who has not done a CPR playfield swap. I already mentioned earlier that some dimpling on my playfeld was very faint or missing. Also, that some of the...

    Bob's Only the Basics

    Those pens are great. Not a lot of colour options, but they work well on EM playfields and will hold up to some wear and tear with little more than some waxing. They're also safe for clearcoating, so you get the best of both worlds.

    What's your favorite drop target game?

    Don't forget Special Force! :) Although, they are not very dangerous... similar to centaur

    What's your favorite drop target game?

    Seems the best ones are already listed. In order of preference for me: Countdown Joker Poker El Dorado Volley Countdown is such a great game because, not only does completing one of the 4 banks of drops make them come back for 10x their original value, but it also awards you progressively...

    Drano vs. spiroagnew

    I see we've been a bit lax in keeping this up to date. It's been a couple of weeks now but Rob and I had at least two more games. Scared Stiff - AJA Special Force - AJA The tides have turned! 21-20 for the good guys :D

    Orbitor 1: The Pinball Adventure

    I've tried to perfect that manoeuvre. Not so easy

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

    Yes and no. For something this thin and long, there is sufficient play in the material. It's printed on vinyl, which has some give. Same idea as a vehicle graphic wrap for example. Worst case, you can apply a little heat to make it form to the shape a bit better (blow dryer, not heat gun). The...

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

    Just a little more progress on that ramp decal. I've printed this on plain paper and will be hand-trimming and test fitting it tonight before I get it produced as a reverse decal.

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

    HIGH SPEED STIFF Part 4 These are a couple of days old now but here's a couple of shots of me rebuilding the pop bumpers with all new parts. I love making these fresh again but I loath having to solder all the leads underneath for the lamps :( After this was underway and I had soldered in...

    That might require a little more cleanup ;) I'll try something.... once this playfield swap is out of the way

    FOUND Neon Sign

    +1 for the signs from "GU". I have two and very happy with the quality, price and service... if you don't find anything local.

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

    HIGH SPEED STIFF Part 3 It's been almost 1 month since the last post here and my return from Allentown. The Official Baseball project was awesome but I had to get back on the horse quickly since it had bumped a lot of other projects. I think I took a week or so off from pinball and then jumped...

    Custom pinball at Museum For Modern Art

    Interesting. I'm all for modern art... But how does it play? ;) Looks like it was an Eight Ball Deluxe in a former life. Is it me or is that the Robot from Buck Rogers in the lower right quadrant of the 'backglass'? Beedee Beedee Beedee!

    WTB Heavy Metal Meltdown, Strange Science or Stern Meteor

    I guess I should've updated this earlier but I was able to locate a Strange Science. Still on the lookout for the other two but I'll content myself with SS for the time being. It was my top want of the three.

    Autodesk examines 3D Printing for pinball use

    I'm using the software that came with it and have simply been playing around with found models from sites like Thingiverse for now. I use AutoCAD and other AutoDesk applications for creating custom file. As far as I can see the packaged M3D software is no more than a print driver with a few...

    Autodesk examines 3D Printing for pinball use

    I don't know that model ME. And, to be honest, I haven't done a ton of research. Mine is a Micro 3D. These are the guys that made news on kickstarter about 2 years ago for developing an entry level desktop printer with some pretty great print quality. I was one of the earlier supporters and...

    Common/Rare Canadian Games

    I remember last year at Pinfest warlock had brought down a Volley for free play. We were instantly marked as Canadians by several EM vets because "you rarely see Volleys down here and there's tons in Canada". At the time Laniel and others probably just placed a ton of orders for the...
