Good on you Nino . Wishing you the best of success .
That makes 3 x AP members (that I can think of) in Melbourne doing repairs and resto's .. WOW . 

All the very best with the venture mate.

And yes, we really are getting spoiled for choice these days. It wasn't that long ago getting a machine restored professionally meant buying one of those dealer "rag and nifty" jobs. Now we have several professionals, how good is that.

Good stuff Nino, hope it goes well for you  ^^^ you're in the right part of the country to do this kind of thing it seems, starting up your own pin repair/resto business. Same thing as i'm trying at the moment up here on the NSW midnorth coast (difference with me is im taking on other electronic repairs as well besides pins).. sorry.. i'll stop now, i have no wish to hijack your post  !@)  &^&

I think you should go well, being where you are.. the pinball capital of Australia as they say! Each resto thread that you post just gets better & better, the attention to the finest details always amazes me with your work you do.. which honestly since i joined this forum has inspired me to go that little bit further with my own resto work  ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^

So as everyone else has said All the best with your new business venture and dream job!!

Well done Nino and best of luck.

I think you'll get a lot of business with repairs and restorations and the quality of your work speaks for itself.

If you continue to source the quality machines as you have / do then you'll be employing a couple of apprentices in no time.
