    Mic wants to make a panel door that looks like one door but opens in two parts..hinging to the inside this time.
    I did not like the visible mech stuff despicable me shows when the door is open..

    Adding some terminal stones for the 48v main,ground and 12 volts for the through pcb’s.
    You can add wires which is desirable at this point in the build..

    Mic sawed the doors in half,oncoming week we’ll buy some tiny hinges in a hobby shop.
    The doors need to open to the inside...there is little room inside the mansion and the door can’t open all the way if we made the door in one piece.
    So this is the way to go...

    Thanks bro!

    Last thing we do is attempt to cut a window out of our old despicable me playfield overlay.
    Cause mic saw a great cracked window in there...

    image (resized).jpgimage (resized).jpg

    #2830 6 years ago

    Aaah now i see it too mic...great abandoned mansion window!
    That crack was the reason we tossed the overlay and made a new one.

    Now anything is possible.

    Love the way the doors are coming together.

    Awesome! The first time you get first flips on a system you wire up from top to bottom (or is it bottom to top?) is a pretty great feeling! Now things are going to really get moving!

    Congrats guys!

    Good call on that protector over the boards. For some reason, I always seem to drop the damn screws right down in the cabinet, it would happen to me. Also, the doors look great, real creativity there!

    #2835 6 years ago

    Is that it for this week? Noooo, I want more! Do now I have to wait a whole week to get more Pinball Amigos. I think I am starting to have withdraw symptoms mid week. Can never get enough of your pinball magic.

    #2836 6 years ago

    The doors look fantastic! I was hoping you guys would give the mansion a more run down look.
    I love the concrete railing, but I was hoping it would have a few of the balusters missing or hanging loose. But it still looks good.

    #2837 6 years ago

    Awesome doors!!

    Can the black nail go on the wall of misfortune when it finally meets its end??

    #2838 6 years ago

    Awesome to see the doors evolve like that- super fun build and it would seem you have the FAST system up and running!! Congrats- seems like you got that running pretty easily- just a small hiccup and away you go@@!!

    Still for the life of me i dunno what went wrong with the other nano?
    Why do we always blow something up at first try??

    Yeah we are absolutely gonna give it that abandoned look,we’ll figure that out..
    But the bannister build was so precise and then when it is ready it looks too perfect.
    But we’ll airbrush it wasted/add some concrete cracks and some weeds growing through it and stuff.

    Quoted from Mbecker:

    Awesome doors!!
    Can the black nail go on the wall of misfortune when it finally meets its end??

    No that failure belongs to the ‘weeks with injuries board’

    Quoted from rufessor:

    Awesome to see the doors evolve like that- super fun build and it would seem you have the FAST system up and running!! Congrats- seems like you got that running pretty easily- just a small hiccup and away you go@@!!

    Yeah it is a real nifty board set and goes to show if you learn something new,it makes building easier!
    The Despicable Me build was based on world cup soccer cause we didn’t know anything about building custom machines.
    So we were relocating every switch,coil and motor plus adding length to wires.
    The figuring out what certain color wires were with the WCS manual took so much time.
    But it was the best way we knew at that time.
    In the despicable me code,every switch still has its world cup soccer name and that is not a big help either if you have whole new playfield layout.

    Quoted from swinks:

    those doors are great, great progress for another week

    Yeah Mic was shocked too they turned out this way...
    We experience that often...we build something and an hour later we’re staring at it like:”duuuude that looks sick?”

    #2841 6 years ago

    Ah the pool is already officially locked,one of these guys are gonna win the first official Pinball Amigos tee (or a cap) ever to leave pinball amigos headquarters!
    And we will mark it as such.
    Very exciting!

    Congratulations to getting it flipping! You might consider switching to MPF 0.50/dev right away since this is a new project. Should be sufficiently stable and will be released in the next month. That will save you the migration later on. Also gives you access to new features.

    Thanks for the heads up Jan,i will totally do that.
    With the DMPM pinball project we were on old v0.21 all the time plus the mpf website went down...that sucked ass.
    As if it wasn’t hard to figure out already?

    #2844 6 years ago

    Start button idea: gargoyle with an open mouth. Make the start button recessed so you have to stick your finger in to press the button. Every x % of games, program in a light shock. The crazy lord with the watchful eye trying to scare you away. Tie the shocks in with an evil laugh outta the game

    Yeah great idea!
    We are putting a conventional start button in the cab(cause we need a basic game running to test our shots)and later we add an ornament or gargoyle.
    You are getting it

    Actually..if someone can 3d print one...red led's on the eyes would be pretty cool too...

    #2847 6 years ago

    Congrats on a great build so far Amigo's!

    There's one thing that's been bothering me, and I hesitated to say anything because I don't want to sound critical....but.... On the balcony banisters, why aren't the corners nice banisters as well, instead of a square post?

    Haha,yes well,we actually found a lot of pics of bannisters online with the square posts on the corners!
    I guess these concrete bannisters need to be reinforced on the corners or sumtin?

    Quoted from SunKing:

    I hesitated to say anything because I don't want to sound critical

    Please be critical btw,our point of view is kinda biased.
    Your eyes and opinion are absolutely important to us.

    Quoted from tommyp:
    Actually..if someone can 3d print one...red led's on the eyes would be pretty cool too...

    Yeah that would be awesome right?

    If somebody designs it I can print and mail it.
