    Default Galaxy Hyperpin Pinball Cabinet

    I made a video pin from an old Stern Galaxy cabinet. Just want to put it out there for anyone who cares to look.
    It has a 32" monitor for the playfield and a 19" for the backglass.
    Buttons are used to nudge but I may use a tilt bob in the future. Not to comfortable with the idea of shaking the hard drive.
    Let me know what you think. Check out the video.

    Nice work, if you have any pics of it under construction please post them, it would be great to share that with our listeners. Sort of an obvious point, you don't need allot of hard drive space so one of the smaller solid state HDs or even booting from a USB stick or HD card could eliminate that risk. Did you use a dedicated monitor, a TV?

    I am always hoping that someone will produce a development kit to build your own tables and backglass, the time has really come for that.

    Thanks for the reply Scott. It's a TV that being used for the playfield.
    I had my sights set for a solid state drive and am embarrassed to admit I didn't even think of a USB stick. I could definately sneak that purchase past the finance department (my wife).
    I will post what little pics I have of the build shortly.
    Thank you for all the work you put into your show.

    What with 32Gb SDs coming in at $20, not a bad option.

    Sweetness! Great job. I would love to add something like that to my collection as I don't have the space for more than a couple pins.

    Like taking your first piss on a drinking session.

    Once you pop you can't stop.
