Damn... site blocked at work. Can't see it.

Anyone can build anything... it just takes time, money and the balls to do it.

I got balls... just not much of the other two.

No offense, but if you want the same effect, remove the cabinet glass, get your face near the flippers like Lyman Sheats, and put a blanket covering your head and the playfield so that all you see is the playfield.

Nice, but completely ridiculous:

- force-feedback helmet? Why? It slaps your head around when the ball hits any bumper?
- machine is literally untiltable and un-nudgeable
- controls are not standard-feeling. Kinda like Demolition Man but with the hands close together
- it is way too big and probably untransportable
- no way this fits in anyone's house

But yes... give me 15000$ and a pin and I will build it for you. How about a Revenge From Marsinator.

After seeing it at home, do you still say anyone can build anything Sparky?

This ones a hard one.


I have built way more complicated things at work. Just needs money and time.

Well you impress me Sparky!


Don't be... just takes an imagination and a few years of school. And unfortunately, even though many of my inventions are on most Cat backhoe-loaders and mini-excavators on the planet, I don't get a cent for it... says so in my work contract.

Oh well...

Can't. Same goes for any shop tech that invents a tool. I have my name on 4 tools from when I was an engine tech.
