Quoted from zerbam:

you threw it away without tearing it apart to salvage parts for future pinball builds?....."it's probably just a fuse"

Quoted from Marten:

Yes! Check if there is a fuse!

Nah,first the adjustment had a meltdown so i was only able to set it to full throttle,but that burns your tip away in 1 hour.
Stupid chinese thing

Quoted from Wolfmarsh:

I was half expecting to see posts where you were taking parts out of the Tesla to build a new soldering iron.

That could easily happen dude,if i need to solder,Tessa(yup...cheesy...i know) is going down

I'm selfishly happy to see these updates on your mad dash to get this up and running before the weekend. At the same time, I'm thinking "What are you doing? You don't have time for posting!"

I'm hoping that you have front loaded your "it always takes twice as long as you think" time and that you have smooth sailing the rest of the way!

We are going to fence off our machines and do “pinball amigos live build during dpo weekend”.
So just like west coast customs at Sema.

I love seeing the work you guys do!

Let me help you on the "camper" vs. "mobile home" terminology in the US...

A "mobile home" is a large, semi-permanent, boxy, full "home" that people live in full-time. Sometimes they are "double-wides." Oddly, they are usually found in what are called "trailer parks." Because they are towed to the location.

A "camper" is a trailer, and I think that's what you have. It's used for short excursions and has some luxuries, but is not really a home.

When you merge a camper with an engine and cockpit, like, all in one, those are called Recreational Vehicles or RVs.

Just stay away from the word "trailer" because that can mean a lot of different things.

My brother-in-law (sister's husband) is from Holland and you sound just like him!

Keep up the great work!

actually if you look up a few posts you can see the front of it, and they definitely have an RV, also called a motor home.
