The BIG BEN blog
I wasn't going to get anymore but Monday after work I spotted it on Craigslist
A 1974 Williams Big Ben pinball machine-$200 and less then 20 miles away off Rt-18!
Ok it doesn't work but will start up and scores reset to '0'
The real head ach will be fixing one of the stepper units in the back box
i'll stow it away till the fall for a winter project-maybe?
I guess I'm a sucker for artwork ' 60s English MODs'
My biggest problem? I can't let go, I mean sell them off like one after the other.
Perhaps my fate will cross paths with a building for sale and a arcade will grow forth
Anyway the hobby keeps me out of trouble and so far the people I've met are all ok.
The guy and his wife live up on a Mtn. and were really cool, as I drove up the winding road however
all I could think of was "they will never find my rotting body up here"
.
I think its kind of healthy to think like that -keeps you on your toes.
I remember what that cop told me back in June about the crime on C-list ,
" they will come to your house rob you and kick your ass" hmmm.... maybe just cop-talk , maybe not?
Yucky mold spots-

The highway we're using is a big truck route so 24 hour gas and food malls in one are all over the place!
Ah, your pinball machine is so awesome.
I have an old one as well.
I don't know the maker or the name but it's got a circus theme.
It's sitting in my garage.
Too lazy to get new glass for it.
