    My shaker motors arrived. Planning on looking the shaker in my Star Trek Pro tonight. Should give me a pretty good idea on the wiring harness design. For the board I have not decided on making or Pinball Life. Can't wait to try this out in my AC/DC.

    Love to put a setup in my Congo and trigger it off the Volcano. Not really understanding the board design difference between Stern and AFM Pinbits shakers. I know at a very basic level the Pinbits is hooked to a flasher to trigger it.

    Very nice, I hope to complete my build this weekend.

    My build came in at about $70 due to a high cost for the board from pinball life. But it sure made the project easier.
