I played pinball, flew a Cessna 150, flew a Cessna 182, and traded cars.
Quoted from zr11990:I had Covid for the last week. I have been in bed sleeping.
Yuck dude, that sucks. Sorry.
Quoted from NeilMcRae:I emailed robin to hassle him to get it back up and running
I enjoyed watching your streams and saying hello to you last night .
Brought my newly finished Hi-Hand and the parts scavenged from my other two Hi-Hands out to a swap meet. Met some nice folks. Only sold a set of legs for $40. Between lunch and gas, I figure I broke even. But now the pickup has gas.
The only person who wanted the game didn’t want to pay cash, he wanted to trade his life size Jar Jar Binks for it. Seriously. Brought the game back home.
It was a beautiful day and at least I can brag I had the prettiest game out there. Ok, it was the only complete game out there, but it is pretty.
The swap meet was at the video game museum. Scored 57,000 on Centipede on my second token. Not bad, not having played in years.

What's the difference between a Cessna 150 and a Cessna 182 (don't say 32 )
Work has picked up. Put down some flooring for one customer and have two large decks to build in the next couple of weeks and I still can not wrap my head around the exorbitant prices of lumber
Wow! No poll selection for actually playing pinball at home or on location, nor a selection for working on pinball. I did all this.

16+16... 150 is a small 2 seater, advantage 5 gallons per hour fuel burn at cruise. And cost less to rent for the student pilot, me. 182 is a 4 seater with a lot more room in inside with more than twice the horsepower.
It is a chore for me to fold up inside the 150, I`m 6'5".
A cessna 172 was the first plane I ever flew in. It belonged to friend of my Dad's. I couldn't have been more than eight at the time. I got the co-pilot's seat. He let me take the yoke and do a gradual turn. What a rush!
Back on topic, I discovered that RGP and TiltForums get about 6 posts per day between the two of them.
Brought a LW3 back to life with a new power supply board, replaced a wire harnesses with a crimp tool, and did my first board repair with a new transistor on the playfield power board. All in all was a nice learning experience but not having pinside to find info was a bit tough.
Oh yeah and sold a GnR SE and bought a Catwomen BM66.
I found out the "REAL" history of the Earth and I guess the reason for the whole universe...turned out it was not 42...
Sold my Judge Dredd on (gasp) Craigslist. For those of you that think pinside is solely responsible for pinflation I put my Dredd up at $3300 (10% over pinside average) and it sold instantly.

I never sell my pins on pinside or Facebook groups , I use our equivalent of Craigslist -Gumtree .
This time I did not even advertised my Hobbit , I just told 2 people in the know and before you know it , it sold for $1000 bucks more than what I paid for it . A great time to sell pins .
