    And i am starting on a template to change the playfield mansion flap...it has to be like dr who,a piece of playfield that rises out of a playfield....this is too dodgy...

    hey guys, cool trip Bas and looks like a heap of nice finds.

    keep the mountain though as might be handy for another build as looks like the ball could roll nicely down the mouth part.

    #10355 4 years ago

    hey guys, pm sent

    #10356 4 years ago

    Ah the third amigo is attending too!

    Was the bandage on Beard's finger the inspiration for the t-shirt?

    #10364 4 years ago

    Beard is working full throttle on the guides..

    Cool to see the mech out of the game. Great job holding the camera the right way!

    Hey Josh!
    Yeah it is too wobbly but i am still proud of how it turned out? It works surprisingly well but it will certainly break down in the future during a show.
    Plus the flap is making the ball bounce...so back to the drawing board...
    But we are reaching the finish line bit by bit.
    Tell the guys at American Pinball we have their next title here!
    It’s not real easy to build and you need about 1000 tongue depressors,but it will definately sell

    #10370 4 years ago

    Allright,aluminium baseplate cut with the reciprocating saw..

    If there was a way to get the BOM low enough and not lose all of the details you guys are putting in, I would be pushing big time for this. This is what makes home-brew great, the type of creativity you guys have, can be brought to life in a way a production machine probably never could. All the little details are hat make this special and the great job you do of documenting that lets hundreds of people come along for the ride. Like many folks, I look forward to this thread every Friday.

    #10372 4 years ago

    ^^ That was cool! ^^

    #10373 4 years ago

    great to see the mech out and explained.

    The linear bearing is a great addition and probably won't fit but if it sat behind the mansion targets it could reduce the footprint and the bearings not need modifying.

    Thanks man,yeah the BOM might be tough...but the rights to the machine only cost a case of beer,so that compensates!

    #10375 4 years ago

    Beard almost has the left upper guide ready...a lot of stuff in the way!

    Thanks for keeping Friday's great! I was thinking about the talking heads...would it be possible (or just a stupid idea ) to use them in a mini game mode somehow, where they could be controlled by the player using the triple flipper buttons. For a simple example one of the heads sings a few notes or funny words and you have to make the other head repeat it using the 3 buttons on that side. Like Simon says, gets faster and more notes each time you succeed. Maybe something more original but you get the idea.

    Mayyyybe They could interact with the player during a video mode of some sort... utilize them with the monitor in the lower playfield to give clues or ask the questions that the player needs to answer correctly. Multiple choice answers picked with the 3 buttons

    I like that idea,we need to integrate the heads more in the game.
    We’re at like 10% of what the code is gonna be in the end.
    Sidenote made,thanks for your thoughts man,cool.

    #10395 4 years ago

    Well that’s just great! No sports and now no Amigos to wake up to read about as I enjoy my coffee! Just kidding, however, you Amigos might have to step up with daily builds instead of weekly to entertain the masses.

    Hope the concert was fun.please post pics. Cheers Amigos.
