Title: Saturday afternoon pin session at Howzats
Post by: Mr Pinbologist on September 11, 2011, 01:35:56 PM

Hi guys just thought id post a few pics of the small gathering at Ian's (howzats) place yesterday afternoon.
Playing pinball and having a few beers, Great way to relieve the stress and forget about your problems for a while  (it worked well for me) *%*

Thats Ian (howzat) in the 3rd pic saying "cheers" with his beer  :lol

Here is some video from yesterdays pin meet  *%* showing the pins, most of which are mine that Ian is storing for me.

Its not great footage, only taken on my Richoh R10 digital camera, so my apologies for that.

And some footage of Vortex (my home made pin) being played by Ian. Should've had the sound turned up a bit more for the video, its a bit hard to hear (Six million $man and Black Pyramid can be heard in the background),  @.@ but towards the end of the 2nd vid you can hear the sound a bit better, including the recently added speech

hope you all like!! Cheers...Mitch

Amazing videos - Vortex looks like a fun game to play. There's a couple of LONG shots in that game with a very open playfield.

All those games look in top condition. Well done guys - thanks for sharing !

Thanks guys, glad you liked  *%*

Vortex started out as an empty Gtb Charlies Angels cab.

Heres the link to the thread i posted ages ago on Vortex. Its had heaps of changes since posting originally, like the added speech and a few other mods.
