[Heartwarming] ROKR Pinball Machine

[Jill_Francisco]

This post is so long overdue Life got busy.

Anyways, my husband built the Pinball machine while my daughter help painted and decorated it.

Here are links of their progress in case you’re curious how it started:

Kicked out of my crafting area

The wheels have changed

Pinball machine almost complete

So here’s the finished Pinball machine with all the beautiful imperfections There was a lot of trial and error when painting it that’s why some of the colors did not match.

In the end, we finally learned that painting with rollers gave a more even color than using brushes.

My daughter playfully wrote captions on each point. And my husband wrote all our names

The pinball was so fun to play except for the launching mechanism of the ball. It’s so hard to launch it because there’s a ramp blocking it.

Anyone encountered the same issue? How did you resolve it?

And finally here’s a side by side picture of the Pinball Machine and the Gear Ball Challenge. I think @JDisaduck requested for one if I remember correctly

These projects was an amazing experience for my family. These builds are definitely part of our kids’ core memories. Thank you @Robotime for making such fun builds like these.

[Jill_Francisco]

[Jill_Francisco]

Thank you @Grey74 it was really a team effort. This build will surely be passed on to our kids. Holds lots of memories

[Jill_Francisco]

Your partner might finally start to try building

[Jill_Francisco]

Thank you so much @Jo_Zanella it was the only colors we have when we built these but we’re happy how they turned out in the end

For now, we just tilt the pinball machine instead of lunching to get the ball until we find a solution for it.

[Jo_Zanella]

Well it looks fabulous and took all the drama out of choosing colours!

I hope you are able to find a solution. Always frustrating after so much work x
