NICE Lineup Gav !

Yes - you need more pins ! Are you after any machines in particular ?

Does your missus always play CV ? I think the Ladies like CV.

Great set of Pins there, awesome.  Not sure about the Adelaide Crows clock though, spoils the room a bit.  Maybe you could trade it for a CARLTON one? :lol

Thanks for posting those pix Gav,

You should be extremely proud of your gamesroom. What a lineup of pins! They also look real clean.  ^^^

As you say there is always room for a few more  &&

I really like the effect of the 'light rope' running around the walls, where did you buy that from?

Got the ropelight from Big W, only about $30 for a 10mtr length. Cheap outlay for a good effect, I'd also like to coil some of this or use some other type of lighting to underlight the pins, similar to what the kids do on their cars nowdays.
As for the cleanliness of the pins, I am fanatical on polishing and cleaning them. I have been known to lift the playfield mid-game if a globe is blown. Also I'd never, NEVER play a pin of mine with an error, it must be fixed straight away or it stays off.

I thought I was the only one that did that!

Nothing annoys me more in pinball than that WMS "ding ding ding" and "enter for test report" coming up! It's like the game is having a go at my maintenance skills! Then I smirk when it turns out to be a switch not activated recently (like the Superdog opto at the top of the Steps ramp in FH, as I rarely shoot for it as there is usually a better reward available).

Nice collection of 90's pins and amusement machines Gav!

I doubt that many people have a Daytona at home... (except you Mark)
