    Happy Birthday Drano (and his Wife)

    Only by marriage ;) Get this. Our twins were born 3 days before our birthday. If only she could've held out a little longer huh? Now that would've been weird!

    The Hobbit Full Playfield Posted by JJP

    Gotta say, I like what I'm seeing. Much cooler layout than WOZ and conducive to some faster gameplay. The alternating FT style ramps look like fun and I wonder how the Smaug dragon toy is gonna play out. Looks like the left wireform circles around it. And, despite it being a total MM rip-off...

    Heighyway Pinball brings on new designer...

    Well, either way, it would be great to see Dennis settle down and actually design a new game.

    Newbie!

    Don't do it Jim! Mike's place (aka The house of the rising sun) has been the ruin of many a poor boy. Ignorance is bliss. Welcome anyway ;)

    The Pinball Diaries (what did you do today?)

    Nice haul. Always loved Seeburg jukes. What model did you get? I'm sure speedy will be all over that vinyl :) If you've got any early 90's BW coin doors in those parts boxes, let me know. I'm looking for any with the 2-slot 1-return configuration.

    Need Board Work

    I know a lot of guys scoff at Rottendog and other replacement boards... but if you can't do your own board reapirs (or have a friend who can :) ) the money you might spend on sending a 30 year old board out for repairs is usually enough to cover most, if not all, of the cost of a modern...

    Pinballnews.com - The Hobbit Latest Update

    It looks a lot more "flowy" than WOZ. I like. I'm also a sucker for trolls :) The chopping action axes on the slings look like fun. Looks like I may have to seriously consider this one. Here we go again :FP:

    IFPA: Currently Casting: THE PINBALL PROJECT

    Yeah. Now that's a reality show I'd watch. I like that they're going after everyone and not just "competitive players". There are some pretty unique and interesting folks in this hobby. Yeah, a lot of weirdos too, but that's what's led it interesting ;)

    Check your batteries in your pins lately?

    I've had a few games folded for a while and should really get on this too. It randomly pops into my head but, with the renos and move, I just haven't had time or space to set up games. Probably te first thing ill be doing across the board in the coming weeks after I get all the pins in...

    So I get an email....

    I use EMTs all the time. I think my bank (TD) sets a limit of $1500 per day so that is a bit limiting unless you're buying EMs or early ss games ;)

    FS PDI Glass Now For Sale in Canada!

    I only saw JJP's in Allentown and not in a side by side comparison. What I've "heard" is that PDI is better. And this makes sense since the glass PDI sells is highly proprietary and patented. We use it at work also for high end museum showcases. The film is embedded right into the glass sheet...

    All my pins under one roof - the TRUE holy grail!

    I still have a bit of messy work to do in here with all the trim and casings... so I'm only going to set up a handfull of games in one corner for now... but soon!

    All my pins under one roof - the TRUE holy grail!

    Yeah, I've been using those for years. They're awesome! I know I have a big bag at home, but I'm sure that my recent gameroom growth spurt will leave me short. Thanks

    All my pins under one roof - the TRUE holy grail!

    Okay. baby steps. Got me some flooring! This is just a rolled vinyl product but I think it goes nicely with the faux brick. Just need to do some trim around the baseboard and the ceiling... case the windows and I am ready to rock! I finally got to set up a wedgehead just to verify that my...

    The Pinball Diaries (what did you do today?)

    Yup. Walt did me a huge favor and helped me move around a few outgoing games this week and bring a new (old) EM home. Thanks Walt! I think Scott 'n' Walt's Pin Hauling has a nice ring to it :) I've been the beneficiary of many a free ride this year. Always greatly appreciated. As for what I...

    WTB: another EM machine

    Hey Tim, get your mind out of the gutter :D Guess I'm passionate about EMs Just picked up my 6th wedgehead last week (1977 Golden Arrow). If anyone would have told me last year I'd have any EMs at all, I would've laughed at them.

    Is it the long weekend or something?

    With major renovations to our kitchen, master bath and basement just winding down, I'm spending the entire weekend cleaning up and getting the house ready for move-in. Not exactly a fun way to spend a long weekend, but still pretty excited that things are moving along.
