Cool idea — love the avatar captive ball lock.. almost bought the mech for my homebrew - like your take on it under the lift ramp!
Double lock might be hard to get magnet in a position to grab both balls out .. not sure how strong the magnet is guess you’ll have some testing to do looking good - not sure I’ve seen a cap ball done at an angle like that
Quoted from InfiniteLives:thanks! Definitely not as intricate as yours, especially that amazing lower playfield!
it is starting to look more like a pinball machine tho lol which is nice
Sometimes I’m starting to regret some of my planned features lol. I like having a lot of shots and I think you are nailing that aspect with some unique features. Can’t wait to see it with all the ramps on and shooting!
If you want to save time it’s super quick to fab with cardboard stock for guides, foamcore for bottom portion, and affixed with hot glue.. save yah some duct tape. Just a thought. I have been pretty amazed how well hot glue works and how sturdy cardboard stock is
Quoted from InfiniteLives:Thanks, I havent worked with any foamcore yet. What thickness do you recommend from your experience?
I’d guess it’s 1/4”.
You cut that by hand with a router? Looks good! I’ve got that task coming pretty soon - I need to figure out how to make templates.
Yes - that’s the bulgaria guy. Unfortunately you can expect about a month shipment time from when it starts heading your way.
