Congrats on getting it going! :applaud: --- End quote --- So want to have just one more go lol but I won't. It gives me even more of an incentive to get my cab finished now :) |

It works both ways. She has her hobbies which are dog agility and gardening. I make her agility equipment for her and one of our major projects this year was a pergola so she is a happy camper. Even when building your own equipment, agility can get expensive. |

The thing about buying the pinball machine is that it isn't mostly just money down the drain (like if you bought a new Jet Ski or something), it is just parking the money in pinball form for a while. As long as you pay a fair price for your pin and maintain it then it isn't going to lose any value and is even likely to go up (unless you bought a brand new pin, in which case you are going to take a little bit of a bath when you resell it 5 years later). |

I don't own anything newer and my machines vary from 71 through about 95. I actually enjoy them a great deal. |

It's been a long long time since I've played a genuine arcade game using genuine arcade controls and I absolutely loved it :)) Felt like a kid again lol. Can't wait to get my cab finished now. --- End quote --- I remember that feeling. Its a fantastic sensation. When I first powered my CP, it had been about 20 years since I had last spend any length of time with a proper joystick and buttons. Amazing. Incidentally, we live in a small house. I am building a bartop at the moment. My wife understanderbly said she doesnt want me to build a full size cab until we have more space... Our house in now on the market ! |
