abeswick Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Hi guys does anyone in Melbourne build the mini Virtual pins I'm interested in buying one, I have had a real pinball machine before but had to move it on due to space issues, I have seen a few of the virtual pins and am thinking I might go this route, anyway any one build them as a hobby or for extra cash in Melbourne let me know thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzStick Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I have to say that @ashsav is your man - as you can see from the pics in his post, his build quality is fantastic as is his attention to detail. I did some collaboration with him last year and we came up with a few things that didn't come to fruition, but looking at his post above he's been busy with all sorts of things, such as the custom coin door and stainless steel legs. Anyhow, do yourself a favour and drop him a line. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashsav Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 thanks chris for your kind words. and if you'd like to go smaller, just finished a batch of the teenyweeny.. a 13" cab running a mini ITX i5 3470 and a GT1030 squashed into a custom cnc'ed cab. custom PCB running some tiny relays for tactile feedback. primed top coated, wrapped in vinyl and custom polished hardware. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

namastepat Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Hey @JoeSoap, I would very much like to see one of these in action. Any chance I can swing by sometime and give it a play? I love the idea of mini virtual pins and these look really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashsav Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Just finishing off the last batch of my 22" mini pins for 2020. Same specs as V1, but with a few design changes such as the dropped down playfield, etched perspex LED-lit topper and my custom pinscape breakout board. All finished off in high-quality vinyl wrap and polished hardware. PM for more details. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever considered making small non functioning models for shelf display? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
