Thanks Guys,
Great to be here
I can't believe I haven't come across this spot before now, (I do browse another aussie forum occasionally), but didn't realise there was a dedicated pinball forum.

Anyways,to answer the questions,
I've got a couple of machines in various stages of repair/disarray (just as happy restoring them as playing them)

Being Restored.....
Sinbad - needs a Pascal board to revive it
Strikes and Spares - putting it back together now, 2/3rds through a major full restore (waiting on the Marco order to arrive)
Eight Ball Deluxe - getting a playfield touch up
Black Hole - repaired all boards (except sound), bottom playfield restored and working on main pf

Currently playing.....
Jacks Open - pretty good original condition, only ever been a home machine
Firepower - Fair condition (my favourite and first, same machine, in the same condition from the same arcade I spent all my time in my youth  %$%)
Grand Lizard - fully restored
Fish Tales - just bought it, waiting for it too arrive...

What I'm after,
An Indy (at a decent price  @.@)
Grand Lizard back glass and score display  (shameless plug  !)#

Look forward to being able to observe and hopefully contribute to the the community
Cheers
