    Quoted from NicoVolta:

    I am working my ass off every night of the week until TPF 2016 to represent DFW Pinball Club and Dallas Makerspace/VECTOR. We weren't ready for the last show (aside from the t-shirt), but next year we are planning to have LED screens and fun infotainment about our offerings... for you!
    My goal is to bring at least 14 games in as perfect condition as time will allow. At least five for DFW Pinball Club and the other nine representing VECTOR... and likely more since other members will want to bring their completed projects too.
    Not all pinballers are Makers, and not all Makers play pinball, but when the two join together neat things happen because we have the tools to build almost anything imaginable.
    If you can't wait for TPF... c'mon up to DMS one of these evenings and say hello. Will be glad to give you a tour. I'll be there for the next, oh, 300-ish evenings most likely... *faint*

    Hopefully my "Polynesia" tiki retheme pin will be one of the Dallas Makerspace/VECTOR pins. Just gotta keep plugging away at all the veneer work on the cab and playfield. At least I have gotten the pop cap designs locked down and mostly finished...

    And to repeat the invite to the DMS, we're having our Open House this weekend (September 12 from 11am to 7pm), and should have 10+ pins set up for free play.

    My tiki retheme will be showing up, but will still be a (playable) WIP. Sooooo much fiddly detail work.
    So far I've used ebony, zebrawood, mahogany, and curly/quilted maple veneers, along with solid pieces
    of mahogany, sapele, zebrawood, and bamboo.

    You can see the original Student Prince cabinet to the right of the new tiki cabinet in the second photo.
