Well, i am half way thru moving the 25 plus pins.and 3 x empty cabinets and all the coin doors n boxes of parts n , ohhh, it just goes on and on and on.
Pinballs are just fun to play with , but a complete nightmare to move all at once.
I actually had my GODZILLA pinball do a complete runaway down the driveway and it did about 3 rolls, 2 spins and went bang bigtime. The driveway was real steep. I thought my brother had it, and he thought i had it. But in the end, the steep driveway took it.lol. Believe it or not, not one scratch or damage due to the wrapping of very thick cardboard. An absolute miracle and a true testament to the fact these pinball machines are bloody tuff. or i am just the luckiest mongrel alive. probably the later ! lol.
I hired a truck with a tailgate lifter. and i am using the 8 sets of pinskates all at once. My brother and I can fit about 6 machines in the truck no probs, any more than that and it makes moving them in and out more challenging.its only 40 degrees of xmas heat. just fun in the heatwave, not !
I havent taken any photos of the move cause the camera is packed somewhere, and i am moving them stealth like, so no one decides to break in oneday and nick any.
anyways, just thought i would post a quick update re the move, before i go and get pin number 14 thru to 21. thank god i have a strong brother who loves the machines as much as me. a good strong helper.
p.s - thanks leon (v8racefan) for the offer, but we got it handled. i appreciate ya offer anyways. it reinforces what a top bloke ya are for the kind offer. regards, Caveman.
