    Quoted from pinballrockstar:

    This is the rc smoke machine for the ufo , we will be the first ones with a smoking ufo for dramatic effect.
    Leds will illuminate the smoke under the ufo and after the mode,a cabinet fan will suck the smoke from the playfield real quick through the back and out the machine.

    We may have to chat more....or see who finishes first....Ive been working on smoke in a few different ways, on a champagne fire pin.....

    You guys are too much!
    Now I have my son following this thread
    Nothing else on pinball or pinside.

    He asked me to share his idea.

    He's into projection mapping, and thought the heads would look cool if the faces had "changes", through modes of the game...getting " crazier ".

    Be it mechanical, like a mask that moves into place, or the heads in the haunted mansion ride, or a pico projector.

    No worries, I told him I would share.....

    Hi guys good to see you having a new toy for your Christmas to play with.
    Jumping back to the blinders for a moment, the first thought that came to my mind relative to your theme for being part of being in a straight jacket mode... One needs to address being in a straight jacket, with dark glasses. I'm blind!!! It is a crazy Mansion after all with crazy people. Just a thought as you can take the blinders as a whole and decal or paint to a theme, that would relate to to the theme of the game and/or a specific mode.
    The blinders and Tommy for me are one of the best toys ever in a pinball game and couldn't fit any game any better then crazy mansion!.

    Merry Christmas, Amigos!

    Time for the Pinball Amigos first crazy video of the week!!
    This gang of irish travelers from the city of Cork,Ireland,are calling out a dude named ‘John-Paul’ for a fight
    The editor put some subtitles under the vid cause Irish is hard to follow.
    But it is mainly subtitled for the lack of braincells.
    I advise you to be in a certain state of mind,i nearly died laughing
    Big amigo greet,

    Hi Guys!

    I dont know if this would be of any help to you, but the book and videos are reference material for some of
    the guys I know that build automatons, and mechanical devices.

    #4553 5 years ago

    Theres 507 of them! a Couple dozen relate to motion transfer, if you get in a bind....
    Have a Motor, How do I make it move way differently.....Ya never know.

    Always appreciate that it is not just the work and passion you guys have, but you let the rest of us feel
    like we are there with you......A rare talent! Keep It up!

    Quoted from pinballrockstar:

    But our absolute funniest encounter was this guy.
    I parked my car on the 3th level of a parking garage in Hillerød...
    We walked down the concrete staircase and we heard this guy shouting superloud in the staircase at the 1st floor.
    My girl was spooked so i walked in front of her and the kids,reassuring her i can kill 20 people with my bare hands (for the ones not getting that...joking...i struggle wrestling with my 13 year okd son )
    When i first looked this guy in the eye(still shouting altough i was 1 meter away from him...)he had one eye looking left and the other looking right,this guy was in another dimension hahaha...
    I asked him how to get out of the garage and he actually became normal for a sec and said :”over there”...
    So we were well underway when i noticed i forgot my wallet in the car....we walked back and found the guy standing in the middle of traffic,walking to the other side of the street...

    Good Candidate for Crazy Mansion Callouts! Perhaps he was auditioning?

    Hey Baz,

    Looking good! Just a thought, on the upper playfield, were you planning on putting posts and rubbers?
    If so, a long time ago, I cored some post rubbers out of wham-o super ball material, and it made it bounce like crazy! (or a pulsing magnet?)

    I actually tried many times to ask wham-o to make pinball rubbers!

    The Strips by Kawydud, (Thanks for the kind words) would be more cost effective for you do the UFO than angel eyes, if you have issues with your rig. Dont know how to interface with your boards, but Im sure it would an easier and effective solution....Especially if you can code color change or speed..

    First off Guys, I have a Safety Meeting Every Friday, in your honor, but I failed and smashed my Toe to Bloody Hell! No Power Tools!

    Sharing my thought on your kickback, a gate that opens on feature for the middle would be cool, or a bounce back post for some drains?

    Is the Lower playfield getting a third smaller ball playfield in the middle?

    #6259 5 years ago

    Wow! Havent heard of that one! Great idea!

    Are you thinking that the curved metal is flexed to different positions, or even Random, so the kickback location varies?
    Could the Amigos code a random generator for Coil strength to go with that?

    Hi guys!

    When you solve the fog machine, mount a removable plastic tray below it.
    For lack of a better explanation, it "sweats" fluid, and youll want to catch it.

    I might even suggest a Plastic storage bin for the whole thing, and am additional fan/small blower to flow into tube
    and area needed.

    (About where I left off adding this to my fire machine, so Im behind you, and weather delayed....)

    Take a peek at this product. It may be of help.
    This is a little to no residue Fog Juice.
    There is an assortment of vendors and quality, but it will keep the playfield from getting sticky,
    Perhaps you already bought.....

    Hey Amigos,

    This may be a little late for the project, but they have helped me a bunch.

    First are drill taps, one piece, drill, and its threaded!

    The second are low temp heat shrink solder connectors. I ordered with a mini heat gun!
    So much easier in tight places to make a wire connection than trying to solder.

    Drill ta on Ebay, the connectors when I ordered were much less on Aliexpress.
