Well knocked off the course this weekend.
If you already know everything about pinballs, it may not be for you.
It does not cover repairing circuit boards.
If you have a pinball and are not game to do more than replace rubbers and globes and clean, and would like to be able to repair more, then I feel that you would benefit from it.

If you don't truly understand how solenoids, switches etc work, and would like to be able to find faults quickly and repair same
then you would get a lot out of the 2 days.

The course centres around late model Williams machines, everything from 1995 on, and of course everything also relates to Sys9 and later.  I understood how matrixes worked, but there are some shortcuts that I never knew existed and are NOT in any manuals. Basically, after doing this course anyone who has their own pinball should be able to quickly troubleshoot and fix everything on and under the playfield and in the backbox save for the boards.
Also good to meet some fellow pinballers and hear a bit from the inside of the pinball industry.
Cheers.
