mervace Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Yes Well im new here. Never thought there was so much intrest in Arcades and Pinball. I have recently aquired 2 Pinballs The Great Star Trek TNG and a 1979 Trizone. I have renovated there machines over the past couple of mths and the kids really enjoy playing them. Im more intrested in the repair and maintance of these amazing creations. I also had a Williams Dracula a few years ago which wetted my Appetite for Pins. Im from the Wollongong Region so if there are any members here with faulty machines for renovation or sale Let me know. My backgroung is TV VCR Tech work Though Ive found that repairing pins is more a labour of love than of profit . My StarTrek TNG has some good mods now. Lazer pointing cannons just finished,Hole Protectors, new Flippers and LED lite back board and some play field Leds fitted but thats another story. A work in progress. Its amazing how much better these machines play when everything works well. Regards to everyone here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
