Opened the coin door for a fraction of a minute and Sugar wanted to inspect my next project, Williams Laser Ball.

Just came back from having to put down my buddy Lucky... he was a stray alley cat my wife took in before we met - he spent most of his time while in the house laying down under the games... he lived down in that basement when it was an unfinished hole, and when it became the house arcade. I am going to really miss him...

Love tuxedo cats! Sorry for your loss.

The little guy (Artoo) is apparently inspired by the back glass...

Edit: He looks like he’s saying “mmmm warm incandescent glow...”

This is Gato. She has never been interested in any of my pins until now.

Apparently, she has decided that my Liberty Bell playfield sans glass is a good place to take a nap.

Edit: I saw something moving after I took the pics. It turned out to be the coin door. Gato had figured out how to push the door open. And then she climbed from the playfield into the cabinet! She didn’t get very far - there were too many parts in the way. She jumped out before I could get a pic though. . I think she has claimed this pin as her own! That’s okay. I have plenty more.

If you ever want to part with that Flip Flop... holler.

Quoted from Clytor:

I will holler from here to Richmond. I just moved it to garage to make room for Mustang Premium. Room only holds 5 pins at a time. Almost got the ok to move all pins to largest room in house. That happens I will hold on to it longer. But a good friend wants a pin of mine. So I'll sell him anyone he wants.

I know our cat would be in that box, asleep. Doesn't matter if it's a big or small box, in closed or open with no lid.

If anything becomes clear from this picture, it's that The Prince of Darkness is no match for feisty little Pinky. She actually sleeps on his tomb.

Keep Cat Away From Mini Playfield .......

#1450 5 years ago

Not 1 but TWO inspectors in my current Laser Ball, project. The funny thing is the machine has sat in this state for almost 2 weeks as I've been working on the playfield and not once did either of them show any interest. As soon as I start stripping the guts of the cab, this happened!

Then, one of them discovers the recently cut cab stencils. SHEESH.
