Nice, I very nearly bought one myself but in the end the seller couldn't get it going so I settled on a Dirty Harry instead. It is on the long-term wishlist, though.

The cue ball is just a standard cue ball so around 170g, pinball is around 80g. So a good hit will get the cue ball moving at around half the speed at which the pinball hits it.

Thanks guys

yeah im pretty much on my " L " here on pinball machines but hope to get up to speed with all the info

Yeah the missus can stay too

Yeah the white ball is a feature that requires to be hit, it rolls around too making some shots more harder than others

hopefully more pins to come in the future

Congratulations mate!!  I love CBW too, it's definitely one I'd like to own one day.  Spent big dollars on that one every Friday night at the Southgate Bowling Lanes in Sylvania.
