Quoted from FloorTheInsane:SDTMinSTL I wish I had friends or places within walking or biking distance for me to play pinball. Thing is I have the slight fortune of being homeschooled, only I only go outside 3 times a week normally and it's mostly for church and karate classes which bites me in the leg since I also have the misfortune of living in the middle of nowhere in the south. The joy of not having a true neighborhood. Also my parents are against me biking on my road due to idiotic drivers so I have no choice but to cross that out.
I bought a project bride of pinbot at the Sevierville TN amusement auction in 2012 I think, for 475.00, it needed slot of love, but I brought her back, it is doable for you, but as previously discussed, you need to plan it, first earn id suggest 1000 dollars, arrange a place to keep, maybe a neighbor will lend the space in the garage in exchange to play it? Then attend the auction, find others here on pinside who live near you, I'm sure someone would help you , I truly wish you success! If you have a question feel free to send me a pm
