    Troubleshooting dead dmd

    thanks, I'll update this thread as I'm able to try things. Mike, so you're saying that all orange dmds are the same? they can be swapped? I know that the new styles are not plasma. But anything orange should swap?

    crazy pinball video

    I've been to Australia, drove over the bridge looking at the opera house. It's amazingly less impressive in real life. but this is way cool.

    Troubleshooting dead dmd

    My dmd is black on my ToM. I'm not sure what happened. I double checked the connections and fuses, everything checks out. Would I need to borrow a spare dmd from someone to test that to see if its the problem? any suggestions for trouble shooting?

    putting token mechs on machines

    Thanks, Eric, for replying. Can you explain how tokens work? I guess they are all minted in different sizes, and you can set the mech on the machine to accept that specific size? One mech will accept any token though? I'll worry about the dispenser later. Any leads on who sells them at all...

    Stern Metallica

    what is the difference between sparky on pro and sparky on le? the pro of this is looking like a real good value though. the game is not fundamentally different. People like to beat up on Stern but they can still produce a $5k pin.

    putting token mechs on machines

    yeah, well, if i was worried about wear i dont think i'd be letting anyone play them :). Doug, any idea what a token machine goes for? I guess I'd need to source a Canadian one that can handle loonies and toonies as well as bills. I already thought of that, would be cool to have.

    FS "Not Mine" Pinball Machines For Sale

    Having been in the hobby for 9 months or so, the one thing I can say is there will ALWAYS be another one for sale. Whatever the title. I'd be patient and make deals with people you felt good dealing with. No need driving into strange areas with thousands of cash on you.

    Would you rather...?

    This is a crazy hobby.... MANY of us here have spent far more money, bought far more machines, in far quicker succession, than any of us would have dreamed when we started. It was hard for me to buy the 1st, a lot of humming and hawing about it.... but when that damn broke it was all over. 5 in...

    Would you rather...?

    Whatever you do, take what you learn from here and don't overpay for a pin. Then you can turn and burn through them and not have to eat a loss, no matter what the game. For me, besides playing, I do have a "pride of ownership" with my games. That is part of the equation, so I won't buy just...

    I'm not a maaca guy, only posted there once or twice for lack of time, but I do have to say, as an outsider, I've seen plenty of snarkey comments aimed at maaca. Going right back to the very founding of this forum and regularly since. Just calling a spade a spade here. If the people doing...

    Pinball News: IFPA WORLD PINBALL CHAMPIONSHIP 2013

    everything overseas is more expensive. not to mention, they pay a premium just to buy the machines and have them shipped over. Still cheaper than buying a machine :).
