And a link to my original plans on RGP:

Yes, you can easily modify the design by leaving out the original designers name and taking credit for someone elses work.
And yes, you can say someone else built a door rotisserie in the 1980's. I never said I built the first rotisserie. I said I built the first black pipe pinball playfield rotisserie.

LOL, That would be wonderful, Thank you. I designed it, I built it, I shared it, and I never asked anyone for a nickel for it. So yes, the occasional thank you is a very satisfying reward, indeed.

The original plans I designed for the black pipe rotisserie called for 60" crossbeams:

I don't know why Vid choose shorter crossbeams when he reposted my plans, they are too short.

Mike

If you are going to leave a playfield on the rotisserie for a long time you can rotate it to a vertical position instead of leaving it horizontal. Either way it is not really a worry. When you put the wood edges back on the playfield after you're finished they will square everything up again.

If you are going to repost these plans please give credit where credit is due. I designed this rotisserie and it was copied in this thread without my permission. The original plans are here:

That may be true but the plans for this rotisserie were copied verbatim from plans I originally designed and posted on RGP with no permission asked or given.

All anyone has to do is look at our two stock lists. You copied mine verbatim. I just don't understand why you refuse to give credit where credit is due. You do a ton for Pinside. You don't have to take credit for other peoples work when you have done so much on your own. This is the right way to do it, ask permission and give credit:

Well Vid you clearly stated you didn't invent this but you never said who did. Why not? Why not just link to the original plans you copied to do your build? The guy you reference in 1990 built a rotisserie for doors not pinball playfields. That is clearly not the rotisserie in this post.
I would have posted my plans here but I had not joined Pinside before you reposted my plans from RGP. I am honestly flattered when people use and repost my design. That is why I put it out there. It is just mind boggling to me that someone who gives so much to Pinside is incapable of acknowledging someone else for just trying to help as well. You say you didn't design this. Once again, what is the problem with saying who did? Why can't you just state for the record that you reprinted a design originally posted by me?
Once again, thanks for reposting my design. Whatever reason you have for not divulging where you first saw this design is your own business. I greatly appreciate and publicly thank you for all your awesome posts and tutorials. You have shared a ton of great information with Pinside and I have enjoyed the knowledge that you've shared.

No need to worry about my English Vid, I can read just fine. Please post a link to the wood working rotisserie that is E-X-A-C-T-L-Y the same. I'd like to take a look at it. Thanks.
