Looks like the price has gone up. I remember paying $159 on sale.

Here's the one from princess auto. It's got a 660lb rating and nice big castors that make moving pins around a dream. The wheels on that bike lifter seem awefully tiny and low to the ground. I used a couple of elbows to get the handle out of the way and it pops out easily for storage. The unit...

Strange thing about the extra ball. I've owned my pro for maybe 6 months now and in that time I have seen maybe 1 or 2 extra balls total. I finally got Ecurtz's fiber optic ramps all tweaked and set up nicely a few weeks ago and had my nephews over last weekend. Of course they wanted to play...

Re: TAF chair scoop rebuild/restoration I suspect the owner will likley still use a Cliffy, but I wanted to make sure it was perfect anyway. Minwax is basically a two-stage product with a hardener and a base. It smells like it has an epoxy base so it's pretty rigid and stable. You have to...

Wow, first game too! Congrats. Mike, you gotta jack that game up :)

Like others I think I'll wait and see. I'm not thrilled with waht I see from a design perspective from JJP. Throwing the kitchen sink at a widebody table isn't my idea of good playfield design. I'm not a fan of the TSPP school of pinball layout and stop-and-go play. At least that's what I would...

I heard there was an unreleased code update that appeared on a Tron pin recently used in a show or competition, but it only had very minor changes. Aside from that, I've only heard that Lyman is working on it on his own time. Nothing concrete. The next big updates from Stern will be XM and TF...

Re: The "What did YOU do today?" Thread Transfered switches and flashers to my new WH2O ramps so I can finally get this project finished!

Re: TAF chair scoop rebuild/restoration Sure. I can walk you through it and help out as needed. You teach a man to fish and he repairs his own pins... or something like that ;) With cabinets it's 95% prep and 5% application.

Good point. Who needs a backyard? Why do I have to be such a city boy?

Holding out for that EL Dorado. Space doesn't grow on trees apparently.

Re: The Pinball Diaries Mike was taunting me with all that talk of late night Dim Sum this weekend. I think I would've driven across the city for some good har-gao and shui mai. My favourite spot in the West end got shut down a few months ago :( Next time you're near the Pinball Cafe drop me...

Re: TAF chair scoop rebuild/restoration Thanks for the vote of confidence Mike... but after seeing Chris' work on that TOTAN today on Pinside, I've got a long ways to go to earn that title! The artwork on this TAF chair scoop is luckily pretty straight-forward. When I start working on my CC...

Re: TAF chair scoop rebuild/restoration Sure am. No other way to do it. Not sure why the pics are behaving badly in the post, but you can make out the cut lines made with the scalpel

Re: TAF chair scoop rebuild/restoration

Just thought I would share the latest project. I will start by stating that I have never attempted to repair anythign quite this bad before, so there was a bit of trial and error. Hopefully any of you who are considering doing anything like this yourselves will find this informative. I promised...

OT Tim Curry needs to dissapear off that speaker panel. Congo translite too! I may start a "boycott Tim Curry and his bad one-liners from pinball" movement :) Nice score BTW!

Nah, I vote Plants vs. Zombies :D
