I forgot to play Baby Pac-Man. Dang it!
Yeah, the only reason I thought it might be a trought switch is because I had to replace one in my JP because it went psycho on me when one went out. Stuck balls are easier to fix but sometimes hide very well.

The frustrating parts about pinballs on location is that this stuff is usually pretty simple but unless one of us is there, a busy day of pinball will mean "something" is always going to be broken. Even with Back to the Future in Chattanooga part of the ramp came apart and is in an outlane right now. Just typical play means typical results with pinballs....just like cars....I'm amazed at how messed up some pins get but keeping the ones in the arcade in as good condition as they are requires a lot of upkeep...

I hope Mike put the balls back in it.

diskboy: That's your cue today, check the Dredd...

Addams Family is back, thanks to Mike Chestnut for getting that thing looking amazing and playing amazing as well....don't know how he does it but I hope you guys enjoy it =)

Diner's new display is now in as well.

Dredd seems fine, same opto problem though.

Johnny Mnemonic is now in the arcade and Dr. Who's lights have been repaired.

Decked out AC/DC tonight. Used leds from pinballbulbs and IMO they look killer!! I have a few inserts that are ghosting, but he is supposed to release his non ghosting next week.

Hey everyone,a few of you already know my situation,but I'm gonna make this available to all Nashville area pinheads first,

I am selling most of my pins due to having to close my business after 20 years of operation(thanks Uncle Sam)..I want to keep my TZ and Creech...but all the rest are available,except Addams which Phillip has a deposit on.

I'm asking what I feel is fair market price's...you are welcome to come by and look at them..or I can get pic's..

Thanks

Duane

Sorry to hear about your business. Those are good pins and I'm sure you'll have plenty of interest.

Thanks Erik...I have your Fish Tales btw..bought it from Jason

Duane, don't blame you for keeping Creech, it's a great pin. Thank you for holding TAF for me, I should be able to get it next weekend.

dat BSD!

Figure I'll ask on the Nashville forum first. I bought a Bobby Orr Power Play today and I really only need the backglass and playfield. If anyone is interested in anything else feel free to PM me and make an offer, lights work, boards look good, cab is sanded down

I finally checked IFPA to see if my points had loaded to give me a ranking. It would appear that after one tournament, I am now the #17 player in TN, and per the name list I am the #1 female player in the state. I don't know whether to be proud or sad for our state's lack of pinball playing.

You beat me to it, IFPA rankings were updated last night.

Also, there may be a July tournament on July 11. If so, Will McKinney will be running it but it will be the same format as always. I'll post more here if that happens.

Went to the Metallica launch party in Birmingham last weekend. Really cool format. They were different in that you qualified on 6 different games and your 4 best scores were ranked just like ours are. Then they had a double elimination finals. Qualifying was on all newer Sterns (BDK was the oldest) and there's very little overlap between what they have and what Game Galaxy has. Great event, I'd definitely make it down for another one.

We sold Comet. Grand Lizard I could use two but the game is being sold eventually. I know Bride will need new displays eventually. We just put some on Diner.

Hey guys, still have the power play cab, coin door, shooter assy, and backbox still available if anyone has any use for it. I need to get it out of my brothers garage by Monday and I would hate to just have to dump it. PM me if interested. Thanks guys

Metallica was updated to 1.13 today. I still don't notice much of an improvement.

Added Flintstones to the lineup. I powdercoated the legs, lockdown bar and rails orange. Looks great and freshly shopped.

Gameroom_6-12-13_001.JPG

Yep it turned out very nice

Crash, go nuts. Just don't break anything.

Ooooo Ripley's! I love that game! I've got to get over your way soon Larry.

Matt, you are welcome anytime. I have a nice collection of stuff to play. Same goes for anyone in the group. If you are ever over near Paducah (Benton specifically) give me a call and the gameroom is always available.

I am not getting a Ripley's. I have a few other machines I want to get it but I need to sell some stuff first.

Howdy again guys, still have the BOPP cab, the boards, the backglass and playfield are gone but everything else is still in it. If anyone could use it all you gotta do it come get it. I have to get it out of my brothers garage by Monday so still trying to see if anyone can use it. It'll kill me to have to trash it. Now back to our regularly scheduled program

Hey Richard... There is a DM on the ATL CL for $2100 shopped. Just FYI since I know you were looking.

if all goes well tomorrow, Richard will be bringing back Goldeneye and another Road Show tomorrow.

Our White Water flipper (right) keeps blowing fuses. Can anyone give Mike and Brandon some ideas since it is a pretty important pin that is still down?

Coil been replaced? Bad EOS switch?
I know some 3 phase motors when you do a resistance check its fine, but when you hook a megger to the motor it fails the test. Basically means when you apply high voltage to the windings the failure shows up. Not that I would hook a megger up to a coil installed on a pin, but some winding insulation issues only show up under high voltage.

Do the lights dim a bit when the flipper button is pressed?

when u replace the fuse the flipper works fine until the ball hits it and it barley shoots like its really weak then after like 3 or 4 mins of that nonsense it blows the fuse

What parts have been tried?

EOS is good, Coil is good, Sleeve is good, fuse is good until it blows, and its blowing it on the power board.....idk man

nah i havnt bc i dont like creating more issues on other games lol

I hear that! I run into that a lot at work!!! Sometimes you just have to do it though.

Oh and just a FYI to interested parties pinballbulbs.com non ghosting LEDs are legit! The regular ones ghosted horrible in AC/DC which is to be expected. The non ghosting totally cleared that up and they look awesome! Can't deny the price either.

When you say the coil is good did you try another or just check the exsisting coil? If not I would try another coil at this point. If it works fine for a bit and then screws up after some use it sounds like a heat related issue causing the failure. You could just swap the left and right coil to see if the problem follows.

At this point me thinks White Water needs a shop out with new ramps and boulders and some made up hair for Big Foot.

needs a mullet stat

I'll have Richard drop it off at Mike Chestnut's in the next week or so, so it will be out for a couple of weeks.

another Road Show has returned, we'll see how she works today
