Title: Confession time; I need to touch your playfield
Post by: Pop Bumper Pete on April 26, 2015, 10:28:18 AM: Confession time; I need to touch your playfield

Yesterday, I was at a friend who does amazing work restoring his pinball machines. He had two machines he was working on, I just had to rum my hand over the playfield to find out how smooth the clearcoat was

I find I also do this with repros from CPR/Mirco, I don’t look at the art, my first action on opening the box is to see how smooth the inserts are

Am I the only one?

No mate, despite not wanting to leave fingerprints, I must run my paws over the field...right now I have the BBB playfield Tim did next to me in the study, and reading your post made me have a grope.

I call it “Getting intimate with a pinball machine”.

If a machine does not like me, she will give me a nasty shock. So far, so good.

Then look at my finger tip, this tells me how dirty it is( well that's my excuse for it) %.%

She has a great body and great boobs.

After I said " I want to touch your playfield" she slapped me.

I guess I will never get to find out if she has a smooth Playfield or a prickly one.

Next week I will ask her if she wants to look at my heavy shiny balls.

Wish me luck !

Post by: Caveoftreasures on April 26, 2015, 11:10:32 PM: I will have to ask her should I plug into her front or back power supply ;)

They tend to always accept the front power supply but going near the back one without permission can get dangerous !

Nothing like something that goes off and is multi ;)
