Just enjoying the peace and quiet here........
NOT! Let's get some more local action on this site. Today I played HS2 for quite a while. That game never gets old. Played Flintstones on VP for a while, haven't had that fired up for months. Now I'm working on getting Xenon up and running so I can do my playfield swap. Anyone else doing anything pinball related or just enjoying summer?

Re: Just enjoying the peace and quiet here........
I have sadly done pinball stuff all summer long. I usually don't do pinball stuff in the summer, but I have a storage unit I am trying to downsize before October, and I have at least 7 projects going on.... Right now I am finishing up Ken's Earthshaker (complete freaking basketcase, one of the most intensive projects I have worked on in awhile), finishing up a really nice Hurricane, just went through Ran's Sorcerer board, have to finish airbrushing the Funhouse playfield so I can get that back together, then it is on to tearing down POTC, TSPP, doing a full swap on R911, full refurb on POTO, full swap on a Space Shuttle, and then the home stretch is a Super Mario Brothers I am not sure what I am going to do with, and a full airbrush/refurb on a Skill Pool.....
Oh, and I started doing a few service calls locally...What the hell?!?!?!

I have done almost jack shit. I did pick up two more games 2 weeks ago - first additions since back in March.
I have a Diner torn apart that I have to put back together - going to get to it tonight hopefully. I have tons of projects waiting to go.
We did have our annual party for family and friends, and the pinballs were a hit as always. Most popular games were STTNG, NGG, and LOTR. Flash Gordon got a little love too from the old folks. Great time - and luckly - none of the games went down after 10 hours.

I slow down. Burger, Brats, Beer and Baseball. I did drive over to the Twin Cities to hang with some of those guys, twice this Summer. Also did Mortimer's the first weekend in August. Do have to order some stuff for my Creech but not at the top of list right now. Plus some of it is out of stock. Once I am snowed in or it gets cold the pinball will call.

I have many days off of work coming up. Just say the word and the boy and I will head over to help with anything you need. But after those many days off I will be working NON-STOP for a month to build back up the pinball fundralphwiggum wrote:I have sadly done pinball stuff all summer long.

Hey. I might be your guy for the right price. Something about that machine seems like it could be a fun garage machine for the cigar smokers.
