Some things just never change on here.

politeness and respect are just 2 things I teach my 4 year old son every day. He gets it. Why cant grown men aged between 18 and around their sixties, it just makes this forum look so damn unprofessional by people overseas and around Australia when they drop in and read some of the antagonistic crap written by the 1 percent.

So keyboard commando u want to put your fingers down your throat. You can tell the people who have never been punched in the face in real life, there the ones who are constantly rude n disrespectful on here, and never insulted someone in the real world face to face, in fear of a busted head. Hence the determination - keyboard commando - someone to  piss weak to disrespect people in the real world, so they hide behind a avatar and a keyboard and upset people for thousands of kilometres away. Pathetic.

Will any thread on here ever stay on track and stay professional which represents the real members who have respect n politeness in their vocab, learnt at the age of 4 years of age. ?

Keep going Mike, the vast majority of real/serious pinball people are behind you 100 percent and very proud of everything u are doing.

Add as much interesting stuff about China and your work methods, cause I for one am very interested in everything your team is doing.

Its all about pinball, its not about the haters.

Go Thunderbirds !  ^^^

A busy start to the week with the table saw being delivered last night at 9pm (only in China!!!). The first test batch of pinball assembly trolleys are looking OK (we will use the table saw to cut the ply for the edges of them). The saw is in a room on its own to try and minimise the sawdust so a fish and chip shop plastic curtain is going up to try and help.










Every part must be drawn up and (ideally) a prototype piece made to ensure things work the way we intend them to.

Clearly Mike, the hooflicky has the wrong wotsit in the doodad, right next to the backwards sumbitch.

Have you tried the Chinese price reduction technique - find fault on something you did not specify, refuse the order, then offer to find a friend who might help out the supplier's problem by taking the "rubbish" piece at a silly price?

Just a pretty wife who doesn't take everything for granted who loves u for u, and not the money.lol

u get wat u pay for. Bosch started making everything in China 3 years ago.
When it was made in Germany, it was aprox 1 per cent fail rate on detectors and low end stuff and u would see a inspected sticker every fifty pieces.
now, you see inspected stickers on everything, and I mean everything, and the fail rate is zero realistically. If something isn't working, its usually the tech in Australia who installed it incorrectly.

The chineese want to keep contracts, hence the extra effort. 99 percent of stuff is made extremely well these days.
(if the products design is strong, the end result will be the same n so on.)

Go the Chineese. Thunderbirds are Go ! (p.s - nice machining Mike, wish I knew what it does).
