    The pinpan is something I've been meaning to make for myself actually. I'd like to make one that just slid into the glass channel, that way it couldn't get accidentally lifted up and knocked over but also had a bit of reverse incline to sit flat. Heck, maybe even a built-in power strip to plug into the service outlet. After all, I often need both desoldering and soldering tools, maybe even a light for work.

    I wish all games had full supports like the GTB superwidebodies (Genie, ASM, Roller Disco).

    Power supply disconnects for testing/repairing MPUs at the bench. Basic but very helpful. I like having a label-maker for these types of things.

    Quoted from vid1900:

    I find those regulated PS wired into pins all the time!

    I kinda think it isn't a bad idea in some pins!

    Quoted from PinballJunkie:

    So it's Frank Rauche e-mail [email protected]. paypal.me/pinparts I received 2 payments already so I know it's working.
    Sorry for the confusion. My 1st time doing this.
    Cheers, Frank

    Money sent. Looking forward to getting this very useful looking tool! Had to tear out sleeves too many times to count!
