    Bringing a board to Ottawa...

    I still have that pesky driver board in my R911. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=822&hilit=tim%60s+R911&start=100#p10382 Even though Doug explained how I go about testing it, I still haven't been able to track down the problem. I was thinking of bringing it along with me to Ottawa, hoping for the chance...

    Ottawa PB & GR Show... anyone want to split hotel?

    I'm hoping to go to the Ottawa Pinball & Gameroom Show. Is anyone interested in splitting a hotel/motel room? If anyone wouldn't mind a roommate, I'm even happy sleeping on the floor on an air mattress! I'd rather not spend the $$$ on a room to myself, but if I have to I will. Let me know!

    Tim's JOKERZ! thread

    That's right, it's finally home!! Talk about an exercise in aligning schedules. :FP: I wound up borrowing my dad's SUV and paying the neighbor-kid to come along to help load/unload the machine. I don't know if it's because the machine is a bit lighter than my R911, or because I've learned...

    Who has a Hard/Race Drivin' machine?

    Does anyone know of anyone with an Atari Hard/Race Drivin' machine? I used to LOVE that game. I'd think about looking for one, but I'd like a chance to play one again, in case it's not as awesome as I remember it. :)

    This may be a stretch, but...

    I don't suppose there is anyone with a vehicle capable of picking up a pin that has nothing to do today, and could help a brother out? I was hoping to pick up my Jokerz from Carlisle (near hamilton) to my place (Mississauga) today, but it turns out I've only got the car today, and not the truck...

    Thread rating?

    I've just noticed some threads have a rating of stars under the title. I'm just wondering how that works? Is it tied to thanks or something?

    HOW TO REDUCE PHOTO SIZE FOR THE WEB

    Before I upload any photos to the web (my site, Pinball Revolution, FaceBook etc) I like to reduce the file size. This makes downloading/viewing the image faster for everyone, not to mention is a little easier on the pocket books for guys that run the sites like this. (bandwidth usually equals...

    22awg wire good for 18v?

    I've bought some LEDs and 22awg wire with the intent of doing a nifty mod to my Heli on R911. What I want to power them off of is 18v, with 6 or so LED's connected in series. It will only be powered up for 5 or 6 seconds every minute or two. Is this gauge OK for use in this situation, or should...

    It's official! My next game is...

    Williams JOKERZ! I pick it up in a couple of weeks. It needs a little cosmetic work, and a bit of work under 'the hood', but overall it's in pretty good shape. Yay!

    SOLD - Canon Rebel XSi (DSLR) + lens + stuff

    SOLDSOLDSOLD This is more than a feeler than anything, so I am pretty firm on the price. (I'll consider very reasonable offers) I'm looking to see if I can sell my beloved Canon XSI. (this is a digital SLR camera) The camera and lens are in very good condition. Not a dead pixel to be seen...

    Definition of "shopped"?

    I see the description 'shopped' used when people are selling a machine. I would figure that it would mean a complete restoration, to make the pin look like it did the day it was manufactured. But now from other people's use I'm starting to think that it means less that that. (tune up vs...

    Opto switch alternatives/mods?

    I have an incredibly flaky opto on my R911. It seems after every handful of games (maybe ten at most) I have to lift the playfield to adjust the sensor that triggers the top kicker. It's not a loose screw or anything, but I still have to readjust it every once in a while. Has anybody ever...

    IMAX 3D.

    I've never seen a 3d movie. For that matter, I've not been to a movie theater since 1998. (last movie I saw in theater was the X Files movie :lol:)

    I've cracked open my R911 machine to get my first really good look inside a pinball machine. I'll be posting lots of pics and stuff on my site as I go. I'm going to use this thread to ask any questions that I have as I go along. http://www.multiball.org/ So many people here have already been a...

    WTB: Gottlieb legs

    Last night Brock told me the legs that were wrapped with my machine were normal length legs, and not the longer Gottlieb legs my R911 should use. Before I buy new ones, I thought I'd see if someone happened to have a set they'd be willing to part with. Thanks, Tim
