Hi guys,
After recently acquiring my first Pin about 3 weeks ago - I have since thrust myself into the pinball world. What can I say - what a world. After getting my pin home, and being a person who has to find out how it all works - it wasn't long before I had opened and raised the playfield to stare at the wonder of gear underneath a pinball playfield. Having been a player for many years - I was now an owner. Aking to renting a home for many years - then finally putting down some roots on a certain machine.
The breadth of knowledge on this board and the many others around is phenominal. I am sure I will avail some of you with some questions in the near the future.

My kids keep pestering me for an Adams, hopefully I'll get one sooner rather than later.
Hope to see some pictures of your pin soon.

Yeah I have already started tinckering and repairing a few minor errorsas they pop up.
1. EOS on Left Flippper broken - easy fix
2. Bookcase Closed Switch - pulled out the bookcase and saw that the resistor wire solder had broken away - resoldered all good
3. Shooter Lane Switch not registering - saw that the cable had fallen off off the switch - reattached and all working
4. Ball dropping into thing box - not routing to the swamp - realigned thingbox and the kickout assembly opening - all good.
5. Realigned the shooter assembly to get a better strike on the ball
All up I am enjoying the learning curve.
