    I've been making pinball models for the best part of a year now. I really like the look of them and they make superb gameroom decorations. I know there are people out there making models professionally out of proper materials but mine are a nice cheap alternative that i find really fun to build!

    I've made 36 different machines and have the resources to make loads more. If you guys think it's a good idea, I plan to set up an eBay shop in the new year that will sell the templates to these models. I really don't want to charge you guys much so they'd be no more than £0.99 each. I'd then e-mail them to you so that you can use them as many times as you like.

    So, would people be interested? Is it worthwhile for me to do? Either way i don't mind because I really enjoy making them, I'm just willing to share them with the community.

    Pictures to follow...

    Really? I didnt realise I'd need the licenses just to sell some templates. I assume just printing on them that I dont own any of the property doesnt cut it? Do the other pinball model makers get all these liscenses too?

    Very true.

    I'm only selling the pinball machine making kit templates and instructions. I'm not selling AC/DC nor the pinball game though...I'm not sure. I'll look into it.

    Thanks for the rapid feedback guys!

    I've had a surprising amount of interest via Pinsidemail, so I 've decided to go for it. I'll keep everyone posted. Hopefully the templates will be avaliable before or during January. I'll make it very clear about what I own and what I don't and what I'm selling to avoid license issues, though I really doubt that there'll be any.

    Thanks everyone.
