    Ramp fabrication, which way to go?

    I may as well get the general opinion on my problem. My DE Checkpoint is going to need a new ramp before I consider selling it (after I am done playing it to death). The upkicker shooting the ball out onto the ramp a few times per ball really takes a toll. This has really done a number on the...

    LF/WTB DE Checkpoint ramp

    Looking for a ramp for DE Checkpoint. I have to at least test the waters before I got down the route of trying to fabricate or replace/replicate with a wire form ramp.

    Ultra Rare or just a scam? I say BS (link)

    I was cruising the Pinside ads and typed in Alien Poker to access the US only e-bay sales and there's an "Ultra rare, only one known" AP backglass for sale. It's simply clear with the design in black. Now to me this looks like something that could be done pretty easily in this day and age...

    Reference for the Amherstburg kijiji seller !?!

    Does anyone know the "pinball dealer' in Amherstburg with the current kijiji ad? There isn't a real section for references so I'm throwing it out there. I don't know if this person has the machine I am looking for but at the end of the day I may not be the only PRev who may inquire. Always good...

    Message clean up....

    Just spit balling here.... Does there really need to be 60 pages to the machines for sale thread? A little thread cleaning of older 1+ year old posts could free up some space on the server. Disclaimer: Hey you're looking for suggestions....

    WTB plastic set DE Simpsons

    My brother has a DE Simpsons and it came with a bunch of broken plastics that are taped together with black electrical tape. I don't even know how the previous owner managed to break the plastic on the lower lane guides by the flippers but who knows... On a side note my brother had the cooling...

    Shipping Classes??? what a pain...

    I am currently looking at a machine in Wisconsin. The seller is trying to help with shipping arrangements and I have sent out a few requests to shipping companies for quotes. (they sure take their time responding) I would really like to use the online tool to figure out the costs but I keep...

    W: Xenon project machine

    I have a friend who is into electronic and board repair that is looking for a Xenon project machine. I am not too sure about his ability to repair playfields, backglasses, cabinets. So, I am looking for a machine that at least looks good cosmetically. Looking to "enter the Xenon" Thanks. Brad...

    Crowdsourcing PFs

    I am just wondering if this has ever been done. My brother has a DE Simpsons that will no doubt need a playfield in the future but due to the licencing I am confident that CPR wouldn't want to have to pay licencing fees. One of my pinball associates seems to believe that these kind of projects...

    Multicade game title availability

    I have seen a number of cocktail multicade machines for sale but I am always not happy with the selection of titles installed (who needs 4 versions of pac man, etc.). Just wondering how difficult it is to have different titles installed on a machine. sure there's only limited memory space but is...

    Machine acronym identifier

    I love to see what's for sale etc. but the acronyms really throw me off sometimes. I noticed on pinside that if I cursor over the acronym the machine name comes up. It a pretty good idea for all of us non-hardcore people. Just a thought...

    Where to find proper springs

    I recently did some work on my High speed kickback assembly. I figured what the heck, why not just get a rebuild kit like a flipper kit. Seems that I can get the coil, switch and the plunger.. But the proper spring..... no dice (at least by PBR) I swapped out the weak looking spring with a spare...

    Allied Leisure Rock On

    I was checking a persons EM on the weekend and he had a Allied Leisure Rock On. Thank god it was working as I hear they are very hard to get parts for. I have not seen too many non major label machines. Too bad they couldn't have got better licensing as I did see a fake Jimmie Walker...

    Working on a G High Hand

    A friend of my brother-in-law has a High Hand that I took a look at on the weekend. WOW, it sure isn't my old Bally Wizard but I figured how different can a Gottleib EM be... Anyways, I open up the machine and right away I spot some plastic coated wire spliced in at the back on one of the...

    WTB: Alien Poker

    I am looking for a nice 8+ original Alien Poker. Much like the one listed in December on kijijii I would also consider a modded multi-ball version (that may be more played because who's gonna try modding a nice PF) if someone out there has one for sale. I am currently awaiting a quote from ToPEC...

    Anyone played a modded Alien Poker ???

    I recently freed up some space and I am in the market for a Alien Poker. I do recall there was a really nice one on Kijijii around x-mas and I am looking for either a really nice 8+ original machine or a lesser machine with the multi-ball mod I have seen online installed. I know that ToPEC has...

    Machine value: Alien Poker

    I have been in the market for an alien Poker for a while. Finally made some room and am ready to proceed. I don't have a Mr. Pinball price guide so I was wondering what the machines book value may be. I have seen a few recent machines on kijijii In December there was a really nice looking one...

    Playdium auctions

    I sure miss going in person to the auction and actually seeing the merchandise. That being said there is an upcoming auction for woodie woodchucks. I don't live near the GTA so I thought I would ask if anyone is aware if they had any pins I always loved going to the auction. seeing what was for...
