I'm going to document these prototypes in reverse order (so newest first). This decision was inspired by some of the workshops I've been on in the tech lab this semester. A big hit was Matchsticks cardboard pinball machine, the PinBox 3000. At this stage it has three pop bumpers and two flippers installed.
So although I have started researching components, I have decided to focus on making my own mechanical parts using levers, linkages and good old elastic. Some had popsicle stick flippers installed and some had rubber band launchers. To solve this problem, a pinball machine lover, tbarklay, decided to take things into.

I was almost tempted to dive straight into electronics, but figuring out all the correct components and power supplies to buy was a bit of a jump too far - if I accidentally bought the wrong part, or forgot about something, I would be wasting time and money, two things which aren't disposable just now. From start to finish, the PinBox 3000 is constructed and engineered by you. 'All the pinball players, when we take it to the conventions, say this plays very well and you can hit all your shots like a normal pinball machine,' Matchstick says. When all the components and wires come together as one it appears quite complex (ok, it is!), but isolating each part (for example the flippers) I realised it's really only a button, solenoid, power and of course the plastic flipper and assembly. The PinBox 3000 measures 2 feet by 14 inches and 'its all rubber-band powered and gravity fed,' Matchstick explains.
Generally speaking - flippers are 2 of the 3 possible ways you can control the ball - (the third being moving the machine ie nudging!) So it seems the best component to start with and I hope to get quickly up and running to play some pinball then add build in other components from there.

This will work on the 110v power supply within the Pinball 2000 machines. One of the most important parts of a pinball machine is the flippers. It was also the one I set up to send to customers who previously had my conversions done in case they had issues. A photo posted by Jono Sandilands on at 9:17am PST
