    Pinball Family Tree

    My buddy mike bought a T2 ages ago. The second I walked into his basement and the idea of pinball ownership moved from fantasy to reality, I was hooked. I bought my TAF within a couple of months. Mike sold his T2 a couple of years later and I'm up over 20 games now. Don't think I've really...

    What Wax Do You Use?

    Online. But its available via a Canadian site. There must be a bricks and mortar seller somewhere, but I ordered a bunch of other stuff and got free shipping.

    What Wax Do You Use?

    Everyone starts off with some Canadian Tire wax. They're okay but most don't last long enough to offer real protection. Definitely look for something with high Carnauba content. Mothers fits the bill, but its a "show" wax and will also be gone very quickly. Try for a performance wax. The...

    Predator Pinball artwork

    Sorry, did not mention PREV, but the game was a lot of fun. I liked the art in game. Can't wait to see the plastics.

    ON shipping for Gerry's APR/MAY container SIGN-UP

    The last guy I hired was willing to do drops along his route (401) for a small fee. Since I'm using USHIP, I am not guaranteed to always get the same guy responding to my post. If you are willing to make the trip to the 401 I can put you in as tentative pending details from the shipper. Let me...

    ON shipping for Gerry's APR/MAY container SIGN-UP

    Yup, there is only one active container as far as I know. The last one has been delivered and I'm pretty sure the ON guys have gotten their games. Thanks

    Allentown Diaries - Pinheads, Parts and Predator

    How did I forget the Farmer's Market? Oh boy! Deep fried kolbassa sandwiches and ham & cheese stuffed pretzel wraps! My stomach was thanking and cursing me. Ha Ha! BM! probably not the best acronym for poor Walt... think about it :FP:

    Allentown Diaries - Pinheads, Parts and Predator

    So I can finally scratch my first pinball show off the bucket list :) After almost 8 years of collecting I made the trip to Pinfest in Allentown with some of the ON boys. Great experience! I never attended any StarBurst auctions or any other events prior to this, so it was great to put some...

    Okay, Here we go again. Thanks to Gerard we have yet another load of new pins to add to our ever increasing Canadian inventory :D Some of these are obviously going west of QC. Please send me a PM if you are interested in getting on some joint shipping to the Toronto area. To save time please...

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

    Success! I think this should do it. It's the original plan, but slighly modified and more centred. Now, up to four people can be at the bar/MAME with the post and have unobstructed views. I just stuck the rod hockey in there to see what sort of room it would take up, but I can play that by...

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

    It's not the look of the pole that bugs me, so much as the way it'll block some of the TV/MAME setup. The program is Autocad. I use it for work. Try google sketch-up. It's free and easy to use. Thanks for all the suggestions.

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

    Yeah. The space is getting very tight. Gotta be careful. I'm thinking my original plan may have the best compromise. Just gotta live with that damn post :(

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

    Okay, Here are a couple of other ideas. Option 1: I build forward to bring the screen in front of the post and make use of the space behind for drinks, storage, etc... The "bar" is now more of a console for up to 4 players to use the MAME. Option 2: I steal a little from the laundry area and...
