alot of the updates where from the last few weeks when I ramped things up.

below is where I go to over the weekend - starting to take more shape now.

image 1 - full playfield with plastics and targets, ramp starting to under go some tweaks and now has a SS ramp lead in to the wave
image 2 & 3 - close-ups of targets that will trigger direction changing servos, and the unique design ball launch to the flippers
image 4 & 5 - top lhs flipper - modelling up ball restriction bracket behind the flipper that can be a simple bolt on feature of a 3d printed plastic or stainless steel part.

 ^^^ Big thanks to Pop Bumper Pete for giving me a NOS modding board which lead to being able to switch operate some servo's seperate from the Skateball program ^^^

 ^^^ Big thanks to RTBB, Pinball Life and Alltek for the gear I have already purchased in preparation for the build  ^^^



It can sometimes be just the small things - but I love the plastic protector behind the flipper - so the ball does not get stuck.
