@philgreg, Haven't visited your thread in a while and amazed at the beautiful craftsmanship and design, and all the progress you've made!

Please put me down for one if there's still room in batch 2, otherwise pencil me in for batch 3. Already dreaming of some nice art ideas...

Been following this thread for quite a while now, so it was great to hear from you @PhilGreg! PayPal sent.

Amazing to see such progress compared to your first coil-firing prototype years ago. Happy to have a chance to own such an unique mechanical hommage to the pinball of yesteryears (and to support Ayscrim Studios!).

At some point next year I'll try adding a few different translite designs to the clock and post back here with the results.

Keep up the great work, your methodology and the build quality and attention to detail is impressive!

Just saw the short video you put on Instagram, looks amazing! Paint apps match really well, nice work on top of your already cool clock.

I'm even more inspired now to make a few custom mini translites, I have some ideas for next year, but plan to enjoy your clock (still en route to Switzerland) in its naked form for awhile.

For all the fans here of the EM era, what are some nice surf, Tiki, beach themed titles with decent art? I looked through the machine archives but not sure what the popular titles were. Considering making a translite like PhilGreg did on the original...

I won't paint the case though so I can always swap translites time to time...

Philippe that heater is super sweet. Back in the day in NJ I had a detached 2-car garage (with lift) with a wood burning stove. Still remember how sweet it was to go make a fire and come back an hour later, and have a great time tuning cars in my tee-shirt in the middle of winter. Plus the heater will help your paint projects dry all winter long.

Nicely done with the paint rotisserie. That + your website is making this look like a solid production line! Seems like something an engineer would do...

This is one of my favorite threads on Pinside. It's been great to follow so many years of development!

@PhilGreg, the clock made it safely to Switzerland . Got it just a few days before Christmas, perfect timing. Packaging was excellent; it was a long trip.

Plugged it in (no problem with our 230v 50hz mains), set the time, and currently have it in our living room. Wife isn't into older EM pinball, but after seeing this in action for a few hours, she was hooked and loves it.

Quality is amazing, this is one solid unit! We'll keep it on display like this for awhile but I'm already working on a few translite designs.

Its a lot of fun just setting the time, and really cool to see the minutes and hours change so smoothly. Never thought I would be so excited about a clock..

Have a great New Year everyone. Wishing you all lots of Health, Happiness and Success in 2023!

PhilGreg very cool to come back into this thread after a few weeks and see all the cool stuff.. The art & box painting on Finish line came out great, and the Hell on Wheels line art is great. Is that your own sketch or are you copy-editing that from something else?

Also very cool you coded the 24-hour clock option, thanks for that feature. I'm going to try it this week!

Philippe, you were fast with the writing the one-click update for the 24-hour function. I will try this on my clock tomorrow and report back.

For the translite designs, I am also working on a few. You can just perhaps create a sharepoint drive or something to use as a design library, and we can all drop in our designs so your other customers can browse and download them if they want. You can perhaps also list a few of the favorite translite printing companies in Canada and NORAM in general that people can use to get them printed on the translite plastic.

I have 3 designs I'm working on now (time permitting)...
