Hello From Gippsland
« on: February 11, 2009, 01:05:01 AM »
Hello, I just thought I would say hello, I have only just recently got involved with Pinball Machines, and didn't really play then much as a Kid, as there were none in the country town I grew up in.
I initially purchased "Tales of The Crypt", and not long after purchased "Twilight Zone". I've had to fix a few things on both, the Crypt needed a couple of kits in the upkickers, globes, cleaning, and today a switch adjusting.
Twilight Zone has only needed the clock pulling apart and cleaning, rehashing a bit till I can get a modded clock board.
I am actually as interested in fixing and finding out how they work, as much as I am about playing them. 
Cheers
        Terry

Hello there. I have to say you have got off to a nice start with a pretty good pair of pins there.

Lots of technical help and restoration advice available here, so if you have any questions just ask away.

Welcome Terry. You're not alone, this place is full of guys who like fiddling as much as flipping!
