I came at the hobby from the angle of just wanting to play, without knowing a damn thing about fixing pinball machines or anything else for that matter. It’s surprised me how much I’ve enjoyed learning about fixing stuff and how the games work. With the help of Pinsiders and Google, so far I’ve been able to fix every issue that’s come up, although sometimes it takes a long time to get it figured out. When the day comes that I have to call someone, I’ll try to get them to teach me as much as possible while they’re here... I’m actually kind of looking forward to it for that reason!
