Using your own words, in 5000 words or less, describe this machine: Snake Eyes is finally presentable whaaat? It's playing as intended, bugs ironed out. If this is the first time you're seeing this machine, this is an entirely custom electro mechanical single player game. Built from spare parts over the course of a month or two. The rules, as explained in the video, are as follows- Win by high ...

Building an EM Pinball Machine: Part 4, Relay Replay
Переглядів 143Рік тому
After playing around with a live playfield, it's time to build the relays and draw the schematic. We have to decide how many relays we need, and what each one will be for. There will be a bank coil for each feature for example, one for each rollover button (7) and one for each red dead bumper (5). These will have to be separate trip banks, so that they can reset independently throughout the gam...

Now all the goodies are pretty well positioned, we wire the sucka up for sound. Tap those bumpas and flippas into some powa. Bat the ball around, see what happens?

Almost overnight, the parts appear. Who is that little goblin that comes in and puts things on the playfield while I'm sleeping? I dunno, but it looks good to me. This is one of the most exciting parts: the design becomes real. I start by plotting out every single element on the plywood, using a ruler and a rafter square. By hand? With a pencil? What is this, the Middle Ages? All the posts, fli...

My credentials? None. Resume? Everything I...

      That's correct! Typically these games had one odd ball, but the scorecard tells that the "odd BALLS count double," which lead me to think there would have been two here originally.

    Fun ... one of my earliest memories when I was about 9 was coming across this one in a vintage drugstore, about 1966.... all I remembered were those three Xs right above the flippers, decades later, found on Internet pinball database of course.... (could have sworn this had slingshots....) Oh, it was also incredibly tired, possible had been sitting there in that drug store for a decade with no maintenance And....... If I may mention this, I agree with the other person , good bump skills, good flipper work, and with all respect to everybody that has posted UA-cam videos of great old games, it's really frustrating how so many of them must be the tech that shopped and restored them, who are simply not good players lol ( owned world fair, king of diamonds, snow queen, funland, long long time ago)

Last time I heard a buzzing like that the match unit in my Super-flit was locking up due to the leaf switches in the advanced bonus solenoid sticking.

      Thanks! Every machine has been a learning experience. I really like the ruleset, but as it turns out, rollover buttons aren't as satisfying targets to hit as bumpers, or standup targets. This one is fun, but ultimately I think the machine I built before this one is more fun to play.

    All self deprecating humor aside, I have really been enjoying this build. As I have your other builds as well. I'm trying my best right now to learn the schematics on a Williams 4-Star from 58', as someone in the past has really messed up the wiring. None of the playfield lights are lit and the starting sequence is, if i'm lucky, a quarter turn of the score motor, and then some coils lock on. Ha ha. Got so much work to do to track down all that is messed up. I would like to do what you are doing in building EM homebrews myself, but I can tell I have a long way to go to get there. Please, keep doing what your doing, more people are interested than you might expect.

    • @justincasekazoo
      @justincasekazoo Рік тому

      Hey, thanks for the kind words. That's how I started! I learned how to repair the games first, and then it turns out the skillset is the same for building them. However, I didn't learn on machines that had been tampered with! That's a double whammy. Do you have someone to help you walk through the schematic? That's what I found to be the hardest part about learning this trade, understanding the diagrams. When you get to the point you're building homebrews, please share your work! I'm always very interested to see other EM creations.

      I actually have an update, my basic self didn't notice that two fuses blew the first time I started the game, replaced those with the correct fuses and now the game mostly starts, I at least have lights, and playfield targets are working. Which is progress, ha ha. Since I live close to Elkhart, IN I could always ask John at Elkhart Pinball for some help, for the right price I'm sure he could help me out. I should post some of my pins here soon, recently I bought a Gottlieb Baffle Card from 1947 from John at Elkhart and I know there is no game play footage anywhere on UA-cam. I've also hand made a replica of Playboy by Gottlieb from 1932. I'm hoping to have the 4 star up and playing by May, and I might bring my two 1930's machines to Pinball at the Zoo this year. Can't wait to see this finished whitewood up and working. I only wish I could play it too, haha.

    Try angling the kickout holes so that they launch the ball back toward the flippers.

      That would be a fun arrangement, too. After a little more adjustment, I think I have a good balance of back and forth. I like the volley action, so I wanted to keep that. But kickout holes that "pitch" the ball to the flipper are enjoyable, so not a bad idea at all.

I'd see if there was a way to adjust it a little not to do that . This machine has a huge payoff when you get all the targets for SPECIALS , but it's not easy to get there. Very addicting machine.
