Added a rear projection mini TV and a partial left ramp to collect the TV shot and upper playfield drain.

  • This is really coming together. The TV model itself looks great, I think my favorite part is how when the ball is behind the screen it looks like the pinball is "part" of the image on the tv screen. I'm impressed you can get that much done in a day. Hopefully you'll bring this up to the NW Pinball show in June!

  • That TV looks awesome. It's a lot of fun watching this project develop.

  • As Seen on Tv theme: BILLY MAYS MULTIBALL(or maximum pop bumpers). Also increases the volume.

  • 1:02 there's a swastika on the tv 

  • How would I go about makin a custom computer for a homebrew pinball machine? Like I can make the playfield and all the mech like you did, but the computer would be the hardpart. I mean, I can program EEPROMs and stuff like that, but the computers in pinball machines that I have rebuilt and taken apart seem like there is a lot more to them than just an EEPROM and a solinoid control board. . .

  • now this is the coolest pinball machine i have ever seen!!!

  • Lots of creative things!

  • Wow, that's some complicated work you're doing. Kudos to you.

  • Oh wow I love that little tv! Way awesome concept.

  • It's fun to see someone work on building their one pin! Design (making it "flow" properly, and making it fun for more than a few plays) is certainly the most difficult part. The electronics, hardware, and build are secondary, but still very important.

    One thing I might suggest -- treat the playfield as if a handgun is poised at the bottom of the playfield. Design elements so that a heavy ball shot from a powerful flipper will not shatter them on the 10th hit (i.e. sides of ramp entrances).

  • haha awesome ... subbed :P

  • The tiny tv is totally sweet.
