    Default Hi from Pennsylvania

    Hello!

    I just picked up my first pachinko machine a few months ago from the local curiosities shop, and another one recently from a pinball place! They're both 70s models, based on the research I've done.

    Still have a LOT to learn, but I ordered 500 balls off of ebay and have been having fun testing them out and learning how they work! I hope to study more here.

    Thanks so much!! Here is a side-by-side of my two tables (got the one on the left first, and the one on the right more recently). The one on the left seems to have some alignment issues wherein the balls are likely to strike the glass after being launched, so I want to try and fix it before I play it more and damage it. The one on the right doesn't have that issue. I still need to learn how best to clean them up, and then how to fix the lights and get the bells working! (That is a thing, right?)
