It is official guys... Sparky,s Pinball Regenerations is closing. I have decided to take on a different sideline with a family member and this will not leave me much time to do any more pinball work. In fact, it might even make me quit my day job if it takes off well.

But before any of you panic, I want to clarify a few things:

1- I will finish everything I have on the table right now. No worries.

2- I might take on the occasional pinball refurb once in a while for close friends. It would be a shame to stop entirely and give up all my hard work at perfecting what I do.

I am sorry if many of you had plans to refurbish games, but it is time I move on to different things.

Really sorry to hear that.  It's a shame when someone, who obviously enjoys a hobby very much, has to get out for whatever reason.  I wish you a lot of luck in your new venture.

Oh, I am not going anywhere, and I will still collect pins. Heck... I play Big Game, Nine Ball and Ripley's almost every day. I love this hobby, but from the point that I finish all jobs I will focus more on my own machines.

WEll that settles it, you're never going to get your home reno done!

Cobblers children got o school without shoes
Guitar techs (me) never get time to work on thier own instruments
Pinball restorers (you, now) never get time to work on their own pins...
and home reno guys live in a never completed homes!

All  the same though, G/L Sparky.  I certainly hope this is a bit of a turning point on your luck of late!


Pins:  TMNT (visiting Sparky)
          Pinzilla (multipin project) (GOing to visit Terry!)
  
Vids:  going away... nothing but Mame is staying
