Garage Conversion to Pinball Room

@Horsey that looks like a great use of the space - kids clearly enjoying it. Lazer war and hurricane - nice pins :)

yoyr right it wasn’t cheap, but they did do a good job and it just feels like another room of the house now. I would try and get 9 pins for that otherwise 😄but needed somewhere to put them first. 7 should be enough 1 for each day of the week :)
 
@Markjduk The driving cab was a f355 single screen but sadly by the time I got it, it was just a shell. I have a pc and a logitech wheel in it which I run all my emulators through. So I can play all the sega classics. Indy 500 is my hidden sega gem.

Cheers pal. I really like the older pins. Less rules, more fun. I missed out on a Surf last year as I couldn't get it from Wales to me. I do want a system 3 for my next game. I love operation thunder and wipeout. Thankfully most don't so I should get them cheap.

@Calimori cheers mate. My 3year old is surprisingly good at Daytona when I press the accelerater haha.

Sorry @GezTheHealer . Didn't mean to take over this thread with pics haha.
Fantastic space though. Do you plan on adding any odd ball titles in the future?

Friend of mine has a Gott Surf and Safari he wants to sell. Let me know if you are interested and I will put you in contact with him.
 
No worries - nice to see other machines and use of a similar space. I’d certainly recommend having a look at that SnS replicas has mentioned - knowing from mine it’s not the prettiest but great fun, great music and good call outs from Rodney. Though I bought in the middle of a ‘I need a pinball machine in the house now!’ Faze, I still play it regularly.

Personal odd ball titles I’d like... Gladiators or class of 1812 from Gottlieb. Wipeout also, Banzai Run... if I had the space/spare money I was tempted by that bone busters. Arcade machine - super hang on 🙂 which I loved as a kid.
 
Great job on the garage conversion! I'm just finishing mine up as we speak. I was lucky though as my new Father-in-law who is a handy man said he would help me do it, so all in only cost about £1100...
