Bought a Wizard of Oz to start my pinball hobby in late 2021, I still think it is the most well-designed machine I've ever seen, between the playfield art, the digital assets, the sounds, music, toys, and all other details. I'm still partial to JJP machines, but now branching out to some Sterns and realizing some of the more interesting shots available on other machines.

I also recently started tinkering with mods. I 3D printed and sepia-tone painted a tornado for my WOZ. Most recently I printed a Ghostbusters Terror Dog, painted it, ran a red LED to its eyes, and successfully tied in to to a GI on my machine. I tried making an iPhone facade for Dialed In, but couldn't quite make it look cool enough to make permanent. Always looking for new ideas! :D

Located in the San Jose, CA area, and happy to be meeting the local community!
