Doesn't talk about his engineering background and what qualifications he has to design the electronics for a pinball machine.
Also looks at the camera constantly while driving, that makes me sad. 
Best of luck to him, but this is no more than a random dude tinkering in a garage right now.
Quoted from Yoko2una:Haggis? As in that gross Scottish pudding that may or may not still be illegal to serve in the US?
That’s the one

This is Harto from pindev correct?
Quoted from Spinape:This is Harto from pindev correct?
Is it? If he is using something like P3ROC, that's way better.
Quoted from Wolfmarsh:Is it? If he is using something like P3ROC, that's way better.
I would think he’s using the proc or p3. It seems like from his video he’s keeping expectations low, as you would need to in this business until you have something people really want and you can keep up production. Not an easy task
soo, did i just watch a video about a guy who wants to make and manufacture pins or was it just an elaborate hype video for a homebrew with no progress?
"might only make 2" said several times
6 months away for TPF is achievable when just starting? does he have a real job or is this all he is going to be doing?
best wishes, as someone making a homebrew, be prepared for lots of fun little surprises

Yup, it’s quite the process.. and I’m still not even done! Certainly couldn’t quit my day job. Furthermore, I have no intention of trying to sell anything. I do it for the love of pinball and to teach myself new skills

Cheers.
Can't wait for my new-in box Haggis Sean Connery to arrive. Or maybe a Highlander, liked the first one.
Honestly, I want one just to display my love for the name of the company. I'm following and rooting for you, @HaggisPinball!
Hi all,

two links, in case you have an aversion to one or the other
So excited for this as it is a fresh face with hopefully fresh ideas with so far great marketing and social likeness.
You do look like you could be Mike from Homepis son though
Go the Haggis!
nice work guys,
with the arcade style flipper button switches just be aware of the switch component fouling with the plunger rod and the need for possible larger cut outs in the playfield

Or how about crockodile dundee ! 
Mate, you need a better name than Haggis sounds Scottish if you want an Australian sounding name you should go with Parma Pinball.
Quoted from PinPatch:Aussiest theme ever NSFW
Thanks for that...lol...I needed a good laugh.
Quoted from PinSinner:Thanks for that...lol...I needed a good laugh.
Sell heaps in Gods Country.
May we NEVER loose our identity!
LOL - gold
Thank's lads - yea, I'm hearing microswitch embedded buttons are about as popular as cane toads up north...

Pinball 2000 used them and don't feel like microswitch's
Quoted from Ballypinball:Pinball 2000 used them and don't feel like microswitch's
The flipper micros developed for Pin 2000 were very special and far different from the "standard" micro the OP is talking about using.
they were a standard off the shelf part, I have thousands of them, I have a 44 gallon drum of them in fact
they could use them instead, don't hear complaints about them regarding feel and reliability
Williams developed a joystick version as well
Here it is!
The theme for Haggis Pinball's first ever pinball machine, coming 2019
Wraith is a pinball machine born of a story of tragedy, loss, mystery, darkness, decay, rebirth and resurrection.
Wraith is a living mechanism, a key to the lock that is the mystery of Fall River and the disappearance of a family of 9 in 1892.
Now, in 2019, we have the chance to hold that key, turn it in the lock. Help us help them to rise. Help us help them to rest.
Their story must be told. They want us to know what happened. They deserve this. So do you.
You too solar
I think I'm only just recovering now - was a big weekend, needs to be held monthly methinks

There are social meets in Victoria every month.
The next one is in two weeks time and it will be a ripper
