    We just moved our exercise room into the craft room. I guess it's a family affair, since my wife gave up her craft room so we could create a game room for the kids (us included). Now I've got to get my other two pins on the other side of the room. Thought I'd share just for fun.

    You will have a hard time keeping the dust off the TZ with the other two pins in your collection

    I probably would agree. Dr. Dude started the collecting / restore habit though, and my kids say that "He is part of the family!" After restoring Dr. Dude, it was time to move on to other projects, TZ and MB, then 2 new really awesome Stern Games.

    TZ and MB get a lot of play among the family.

    Neat. I had to give up my photo studio for my "repairs room".

    Nice game room!
    I would use the TZ as an ironing board.

    (The AC / DC is awesome)

    A great collection of pins in a cool looking game room with a understanding wife that's allows you to do this to her craft room. What more could a man want in life!!!

    Looks nice. Thanks for sharing!

    Nice game room Tarp, you actually had a couple of pinsiders bashing TZ when you were showing your new game room. You handled it with class including your Dr. Dude response. Your wife is cool as is mine about pinball . I expanded my game room to fit 8 pins instead of 2 and my wife was all for it. Enjoy.

    Thanks for the kind words. Here's a couple pictures of the other two in the kids lounge. Soon to be pin-less, as they are moving tomorrow to the game room

    As a side note, I'm in the love TZ camp. It is an awesome pin. Love the few times I've been Lost in the Zone. Awesome jackpot sound, and it is one of the family's favorite classic TV shows. I do realize that there are lovers and haters of the pin, but I guess that is why there are so many to choose from.

    Peace and Happy 4th to all.

    Exercise sucks, more pins

    Yeah! You get enough exercise when you move them. Just keep rotating the collection=exercise.

    Looks great - Congrats! I am excited also because I was able to convince my wife that we no longer needed a guest bedroom and that it didn't get used enough - Working on moving my pins out of the garage and into the new "pin room."

    Looks great, why is the game room shrinking though? Eyeing replacements or just thinning the collection?
