Day 5

I read an online forum discussion about LEDs and got a great suggestion. If the LEDs seem too bright or focus their light too much one direction, to try sanding them lightly to scuff the surface. Someone did it with a dremel set up on 200 bulbs and said it the diffused the light dispersement quite well and gave it a "warm" feel. I'm definitely going to consider doing this, I want it to light the artwork well but not seem too bright. I'll probably experiment around with it when the lights arrive in the mail and see what works best. A few other ideas that have been bouncing around in my head:

  • wiring the power switches from the battery packs to the flipper button or credit buttons
  • putting in some type of electronic chimes or a recording to simulate pinball sounds in that can be played at the press of a button
  • putting pinballs in the two sunken ball kickers on the playfield
  • cutting out shelves for magazine storage in the sides of the table
  • repainting the coin door, then having it open with a key to a storage area
  • possibly adding a pull out drawer for storage (this is a wide-body pin, it's got lots of storage space to take advantage of)
Really the possibilities are endless, but since it's pretty big (it's a wide body pinball table), I want to definitely take advantage of the storage space in the cabinet and make it more coffee table like, while retaining the overall feel of a pinball table.
