    Anyone have an extra PCB they’d sell?

    #379 3 years ago
    Quoted from AmokSolderer:

    Of the shaker board?
    I never ordered boards, but just etched one for a friend of mine. As it is so simple it could also be done on a breadboard.

    The main APC board.

    #382 3 years ago

    I like assembly, so more through hole. Count me in on the next group of boards.

    #385 3 years ago

    I mainly just want the latest version.. in whatever form

    #388 3 years ago

    Whatever the popular group buy is i want in that list.

    Quoted from Compy:

    I checked my parts racks, and I do have 4 blank v2.4 PCBs if anyone could use one.

    What’s the big difference between 2.4 and this latest?

    Getting close, thanks @compy!

    Target machine is this. But if you want someone to help test the sound overlay board shoot me a pm and I’ll do what i can.

    I’m finally getting back to this project, dragged my feet doing a cabinet... should end up looking kinda neat.

    Quoted from AmokSolderer:

    Is this Gameplan HW somehow compatible to Williams or do you have to build some adapters?

    I’m running sys11 boards and mostly Williams mechs, i think the only gameplan bits are the pop bumpers. Would be neat to try and run gameplan hardware I spose, but I never had any.

    Quoted from AmokSolderer:

    Looks good. What are you using, PinMame, MPF or C?

    C
    I just hacked the pinbot code to run my coils and switches and have the ball trough feed a perpetual game. Once I rig up some sounds and wire the rest of the switches I’ll work on a proper game.

    Quoted from ThatOneDude:

    I finally got around to finishing my new APC board.
    Just in time to pick up some sys 11 playfields with intact wiring harnesses.

    Nice score!

    Quoted from AmokSolderer:

    Yeah, at the moment I have problems to get populated boards at all.
    I just got a mail from JLCPCB telling me that my pre-order for 74HCT573 ICs failed as they're unavailable.
    That means I have to choose another brand now and try again.

    From the tiny bit of electronics stuff I’ve done, the worst most tedious part is reworking a finished design around parts for price/availability.
    I’m many revisions behind the latest. Count me in on the next North American group buy.
