Quoted from Ballsbeout:No, a local arcade owner.
what's something like that run on the used market. I remember the auction days, huge stuff like this was dirt cheap, because nobody had the room or a way to get it home.

Quoted from dutchi:Well its a start.. and what an amazing gamerooms in this thread! My youngest daughter is a fan

Nice start to your gameroom...and I love the artwork on the walls!
So yeah, I got a really good deal on the pod. The seller buys a lot in bulk from overseas and gets good prices.
I made a couple previous purchases from him so i got hooked up.
Side note: I just ordered a Rush premium...so stoked!!!

Seriously though it is pretty sweet. I am trying to figure out what that is. Is it hand drawn on? Is that chalk? If so, who did it?
Quoted from dirkdiggler:A bowling alley would be so sweet. Definite install when I win the lotto max.
Only thing missing is a huge tv screen at the end of the lanes above the pins, or at least some type of mural.

Anyone know what that long table thing is in front of the pins?
Quoted from bob_e:just one problem I'm about 35 million short..
After paying the 1st years taxes I'd be qualified for Social Services..
Quoted from pinballslave:Anyone know what that long table thing is in front of the pins?
It's a Shuffle Board table but not sure on the length.
I'm thinking tournament size which is 22 ft..
I was going to venture to say it's an "official" size shuffleboard table, not the home editions that are 9' or 12'....but the big 22' size! If only i had room for a 22' shuffleboard and bowling lane! The Dru abides.
Quoted from cait001:if you like the idea of pool-- the social aspect, the dexterity, the satisfaction-- but don't like the huge amount of real estate it takes up, might I suggest Bar Billiards? http://pinballnovice.blogspot.com/2021/07/a-note-on-bar-billiards.html
here's the video from my link:
It's only a bit more space than a pinball machine and fit nicely with a line of games
excuse the tangent from the normal content, but:
for anyone that was interested in bar billiards table, I stumbled on a forum where people had some for sale in the USA.
scroll to the bottom of http://www.billiardsforum.com/pool-tables-wanted/looking-for-a-bar-billiards-table-in-usa
this one is in Michigan

this one is in Florida

Also there are 2 up for sale in Canada
this beautiful one is in Winnipeg https://www.kijiji.ca/v-hobbies-craft/winnipeg/bar-billiards-is-a-form-of-billiards-which-developed-in-england/1599243860

and this much more basic one is in Calgary https://www.kijiji.ca/v-toys-games/calgary/classic-bar-billiard-table-excellent-condition-enjoy-at-home/1599031938

I bring these up because apparently there are no manufacturers in North America, so your only option would be a used one like this, or shipping from overseas. While not a perfect swap-in for a pinball machine, they would fit in many pin lineups that have some space wiggle-room.

I'd buy that one in Calgary but never get down that way. Wish I had some family down there. Bar billiards would be a fun addition to the gameroom.
My pinball bar/game room is coming along.
We had a bunch of folks over for a Christmas party and the Mrs organized a Santa for the party... After joining me and my buddy and trying his hand at the Iron Maiden, I stuck him on the EM and he loved it! Haha.

ET. My second relay logic Homebrew, following dragon Ball z, I haven't worked on it as of late- lost my passion for it a little bit but I'm slowly regaining it back
For those using black light? Any recommendations? Everything I see the reviews are overwhelming about the heat from the smaller cubes. Thx
Quoted from PinPickle:For those using black light? Any recommendations? Everything I see the reviews are overwhelming about the heat from the smaller cubes. Thx
I have these in several of these in the recess can lights in my bar/gameroom.
They don't get hot, they last a long time, they offer a really nice blacklight effect ( as well as offer a nice subtle light to the area below). They're not uncomfortable or harsh to look at, and actually they look rather neat.
I found them on Amazon.com.

Recently downsized my collection since I’m not that much into hobby but I kept two machine I don’t plan to sell.
Recently remade my gameroom setup as I am more into terminator statue collection.

Almost all of the ebay stuff is garbage. It's important to use 365nm instead of 395nm, because the latter throw off a whole lot of visible light and it ruins the effect. Even the ones claiming 365nm are usually fake, so be prepared to occasionally send back a dud.
I buy mine from http://spiderwebman.net/ - guy has an old-school operation but he's picky about what he sells. I have two of the 12W ones and my goodness does it ever make things pop.

Incredible collection! I love how you cut a perfect circle in the ceiling tile to allow the one statue to fit.

Nah already have a T2 and BoP is a classic for me , but as a terminator collector I have considered that in past

Had no choice but it’s only a tile , I’ll replace it when I’ll move the bust
