Addams Family Machine - from scratch
« on: April 19, 2021, 11:18:56 am »
Well, almost.  follow the build thread here :)

https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/addams-family-scratch-build/page/42

I am getting VERY close to powering it on for the first time, so here is hoping.   All this from having NEVER seen the inside of a pinball machine up close in person. so if I can do it, YOU can do it.

Really cool project. 

Also, Whippany or Cedar Knolls?
