Hello everyone!

[darylward251]

Hi everyone, my name is Daryl and I love pinball

I got into pinball from the video game side of things earlier this year and it has turned into an obsession

After getting into Pinball I converted a toy pinbal into a digital one:



I'm currently tweaking a second digital build, the Just PinCase:




It's a lot tidier now, this was early on

I joined the site in the hopes of buying a table for one last conversion project, fingers crossed it's still available

My actual pinball career spans two tables: Scared Stiff and Stern's Wrestlemania. These are the only on location pinballs near me, as I live in Leicester. Both tables probably need maintanence, based on the stuck balls and weak flippers etc but I love them Looking to head to Birmingham to visit Tilt and play AFM in the wild thanks to Paul for letting me know the sad news, what can I say

Anyways, thankyou and keep ballin'

Daryl

The outpouring of support and love has been overwhelming

Whilst I am heartbroken its now gone (building is empty) I take comfort in knowing I created a space a lot of people loved

But as I sit here knowing it supposed to be league night tonight and none of us will be there playing tonight kind of destroys my soul

I will reply to everyone that has been kind and messaged me privately in the coming days when it all sinks in

If anyone if interested in a Mando LE, Avengers LE, Bond LE and Jurassic Park LE give me a shout

Hi Daryl,

Get yourself to Pinfest this weekend. It will blow your mind! There will be machines for sale there too.

Welcome @darylward251 as others have said, try and get yourself to Pinfest this coming weekend but failing that I'm in Ibstock so probably not that far from you if you ever fancy coming over to play some different games

Digging the miniature digital pin. I can actually see a bigger market for those than the full sized ones.

Thanks for all the welcomes and making me aware of Pinfest! I'm tempted but I don't drive atm so it'd be a challenge to get there but hey... we'll see how I feel.

Cheers You can't see it in the picture but there's half a laptop nailed to the underside

I think if it were done proper with the correct IPS screens and stuff then I think people might want it. Some of the current miniature digital pins just look like wallpaper'd boxes, which i don't like the look of. I like the fact that the one I made has a kind of backglass and playfield look.

My current interest is small scale actual pinball, I want to see where that can go.
