Pin room layout … just a bit of fun

[Silverpaolo]

So I’m redoing one of my pin rooms and doing 7 pins in a line up. Question is in what order would you put them?… I’m a bit ocd so want them to look right without having to constantly rearranging them …. Just a bit of light hearted fun this no prizes I’m afraid

The line up is this

Ccr
Afm
Ehoh
Bond
Scooby
Jp premium
Gz

Tempted to put sterns together but might look ok a bit hotch botch ! Each one will have toppers

Thanks in advance Paul

Sterns together.

 

[Jib]

I'd put the 4 sterns together then buy 3 more sterns, put them in a row. Then build 2 more rooms, one for 90's and one for spooky's, buy more machines to fill.

You know it makes sense

Put the AFM in my house then do whatever you want with the rest

AFM at the furthest point of the line up when you walk in the room, that way you'll increase your daily step count.

Well that’s true enough great game

Make sure you leave a space for that Jaws LE and ill look after your JP for ya

I find a lineup of modern Stern pins start to look to clinical and I try breaking them up now to make them look more interesting.
I currently have 10 pins in the house and my max lineup is 5 in a row but I always put something in the middle between the sterns now.

ATM this is TBL on its honeymoon, previously it was Scooby and before that TNA but you get the idea.
Regardless of how you line them up they will look boss! But like they say a change is as good as a rest so whether you like it or not they will always be evolving and changing mine do.

Ya silly sally ha ha

Go 100% random on the arrangement then when you sell one and replace it with something else it can go straight in the gap and theres nothing strange height or width wise #forwardPlanning

 

[Jib]

If I didn’t want the sterns together I’d probably go for symmetry and have 2 sterns either end, scooby in the middle with cc and afm flanking scooby. Or cc and afm at the ends then 2 sterns either side and scooby still in the middle.

That or whichever is your favourite art put in the spot your eyes are drawn to as you open the door and least favourite furthest from the door

Not a bad shout cheers

 

[Judderman]

Nobody else thinking alphabetical order, then?

 

[Fantazia2]

Stern - AFM - Stern - Scooby - Stern - CCr - Stern

Order the sterns how you like.

 

[RetroHeed]

AFM- JP-EHOH-SCOOBY-BOND-GZ-CCR

One hell of an amazing selection of games you have, any line up of these is superb tbh.

 

[David_Vi]

I used to try to keep the similar pins together, wpc together, classics together etc
But I realised it looks pretty good all random, different heights and backbox styles all mixed up. It's the @Spandangler way

 

[Pop Bumper Pete]

Stern, B/W, Stern, Spooky, Stern, B/W, Stern

Picture of room please

Done with every suggested layout, so we can decide which is best.

 

[Monkeyboypaul]

I'd put the most likely to leave at the most accessible end of the line-up. Or vice versa if you hate selling anything (like me).

 

[Colywobbles]

I keep intending to one day have my main pinroom show how pins evolved over the years.
It would be a great history lesson to non-pinheads who I often bore with my collection.

ATM it would be something like this

Fathom
BK2k
Creech
Metallica
Godzilla

Problem is many come and go too quick and 2 of the above will defo be for the chop.

Now that's an awesome lineup.

If possible, get the pins with favourite look, art on the outers.
My PF when I get it will be either on its own or on the end of the line where there’s a gap.

Good call I do this if a pin has mirrored art left and right I normally put against the wall and any that have alternative like GZ and Scooby in the middle
