    OK not pinball related but I know there's a lot of Pinside crossover with Midwest Gaming Classic.

    I'm doing another workshop this year, same project as the last one in November.

    https://www.midwestgamingclassic.com/event/ben-heck-make-a-gamebadge/

    The goal is teaching people about surface mount soldering skills (which I guess does apply to modern pinball) & microcontrollers. You get to build a cool mini badge that plays games and I even have lanyards this time so you can wear it at show!

    It's a four hour window starting at 1pm the Friday of the show. And if you want I can tell Jpop and Deeproot stories and do impressions

    That's awesome Ben.

    I hope you'll video the class and post a condensed version up here for those that can't attend. That'd be a great learning tool and watch.

    My girlfriend's brother is interested in attending. I bought him a ticket on the condition he helps us set up in the arcade hall. He does game console repair work for his friends at the age of 15, so I'm going to guess you guys will get along well!

    If someone wants to film it that's cool, but I'll be too busy to do it myself.
