Is your shaker motor a real machine shaker like Earthshakers?
Or a bee fart like Sterns?

Another shaker motor update.
 :lol


Yes, because the shaker is part of the Homepin pinball project - this is a far larger undertaking than a single machine (Thunderbirds) and the shaker assembly will be a staple of ALL machines we release.

Just as when the drop targets assembly is ready for a bench workout I will put updates on it along with all the other bits and pieces that make up a pinball machine NOT just a single machine..

As I have constantly mentioned I am concentrating on all of the "boring" bits that make up a pinball machine - EVERY machine not just TAG. Some of these parts are finally starting to filter through from our original drawings to actual finished parts. These parts will also be available for sale to those who want them - things like the shaker assembly and these metal cabinet protectors. These will be fitted as standard, from the factory on all Homepin pinballs.
