Hi Everyone

[lukex]

 

Hi,

My name is Luke and I live in Melbourne but work in Warrnambool during the week. I have recently discovered the joy of being a pinball owner and I have two at the moment - a nice Funhouse and a Creature from the black lagoon.

At present I am learning about fixing these machines and their quirky problems as they pop up. I love the idea of a local forum for help as for the past few months I have been relying on the guys from rec.games.pinball for help. Also great to be connected locally for parts etc. and who knows - the next elusive machine.

I also have a beautiful Seeburg 100j jukebox that I tinker with - you would be surprised how fixing these machines is pretty similar to fixing pinnies - a lot of chasing your tail and wild goose chases until you find the fix was the most obvious of things!!!!!

Looking forward to reading your posts and making a contribution myself.

Cheers,

Luke

And congrats on adding the TZ to the collection.

I know what you mean about chasing your tail with the repairs   But I think you'll find plenty of helpful (and knowledgable) guys here.
