Quoted from Indypin:Love that carpet Molspin, really gives your room that "arcade" feel. Great collection of pins too!
Thanks, Indypin. I looked all over for that carpet and found a place that had exactly two rolls left. My carpet installer gave me a quote (over the phone) and then when saw the repeat pattern upon arrival...he almost didn't want to do it. 
He lined it up quite well though, I really had to look to see where he cut it.

Quoted from pale:Just a curious question:
What is the price on Cactus Canyon in the USA ?
I have a buddy that just bought a nice (but dirty) one yesterday for $8500. That said, I have seen a few sell north of $10k and a well restored one can list upwards of $19k (last one I saw, but don't know if it sold anywhere near that price if at all).

Quoted from Erik:Molspin, what's the Tron translite thing?
It's a Swap Box: http://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/swap-box-introducing-a-new-game-roompinball-led-light-box-display#post-918640. I highly recommend the product...the pics do not do it justice.

Quoted from gweempose:That framed pinball schematic just might be the coolest damn thing I've ever seen.
Quoted from Tbgolfen:Thanks! I had an artist use paint chalk on a 5'x5' chalk board.
Agreed. That looks awesome!

Nice! I always like the world map on the control panel. Very cool...and looks to be in phenomenal condition.

Quoted from RVH:Just a note on the furniture sliders mustangpaul was talking about, I use the same ones but remove the foam and have pin footies from pinball life in place of the foam. This works great on plush carpet

Quoted from BigDan:I use to LOVE going to Q-Zar when I was 13-15 years old out here in CA (1995). I still hold onto almost every games score sheet in a filing cabinet for nostalgia, I wasn't good by any stretch but I have more then a couple TOP GUN's so thats what kept me coming back by walking and taking a bus mind you. (took about a good hour to get there) Then my best friend and I could play two 20 minute matches for 5 bucks with these coupons that were on the back of grocery store receipts.
I don't recall any pins being there but this was the same time that I got hooked on pinball because I use to play The Getaway at this sandwich shop (Jersey Joe's Philly cheese steaks) that had a $1.99 hoggie sandwich with unlimited fountain soda special I would get for lunch because the entire school had off campus lunch. So my pre car years lunch time excursions were mainly centered around food and arcade games because they had SF2, MK1,2 and 3, Tekken and and a pins spread between 7-11, pizza by the slice place, a pool hall and this super cool smoke shop that would sell us high schoolers anything in his store.
Wasn't the 90's cool like that?
Haha! Me too! Went to Q-Zar in Redwood City for a b-day and got Top Gun. I cherished that moment for many moons. Thanks for bringing back an old memory.
