Strong work so far — love watching hb’s come together! I’m a number of weeks behind you — a few weeks from first flips but can’t wait to get to that point so I can do more focus on layout

Quoted from Fortytwo:Very cool. What's your theme? If you have a thread going I'd love to check it out. I waited until I got some steam before starting a thread.
No thread yet — wanted to wait as well for a flipping whitewood and for a theme decision. I wanted to do fight club for a long time but I am wavering now in possibly futuristic original theme of some sort either another advanced world or post-apocalyptic. Once I can get some layout ideas I should be able to decide. Watching threadsike yours though keep me motivated to plough ahead— love home brews! You on the pindev slack?
Quoted from Fortytwo:Thanks. I find the community both helps keep me motivated and helps when I’m in a pickle.
Yes I’m on there practically same name and avatar.

Cool. I’ll try to check in there more.. I was watching more but switched over to the FAST channel since I’m using their system. Hard to keep up on pindev, fast, and pinside
Awesome progress! What did you use for guides and ramps - did you shear cut smaller gauge stainless sheets to size or..? I’m at cardboard/foamcore with mine and want to start moving to prototype in metal - love how fast your ramps flow!
Spiral shot is sweet! Reminiscent of Pinball magic skill shot into the hat. That testing is rather familiar lol- spent hours last weekend doing that trying to get my upper flipper ramp shot tweaked to work.
Any chance you could do me a favor and measure the total length of your 5 bank drops end to end (1st drop up to 5th). I have used one coming from a flipper football but it will be weeks and I’m wondering roughly how long a hole I need to cut to fit those in.. figuring most 5 banks are within a 1/2” or so.. what game is yours from, that an older ss stern?
The metal guides are so satisfying to hit after shooting around on cardboard! Awesome! How are those 2 balls defying gravity by the orbit gate ??
Quoted from Fortytwo:I’m moving from 22 ga sheetmetal to 18 ga stainless. The nice part I was able to adjust a couple to make the shots smoother.
Ha. Nice catch. Since my “subway tunnel” addition on the back board. It no longer fits my rotisserie. So it’s standing on end on the work bench. Adding the service rails make this easy.
Ah gotcha, that’s right you’ve got that white painted 22ga metal. I’m soon facing that same issue with a back subway and the rotesserie- going to try and figure out a way to still support pf on it and get subway clearance though.. would like to leave mine on the rotesserie quite a bit longer.
Good luck with the cold - hope you’re feeling better soon. Cold season this year sucked!
Is that difficult to get it autolaunching? I’d love to have an icon at least for now just to launch the correct mpf command that points to the correct file path
