Hello friend ... I have had problems with the microswith that I bought ---- I tried to buy it in Germany in the store that you mention in the (Cult) ... but they send it by ship and it costs a lot of money and it takes a long time to arrive --- I'm trying to redesign the theme of the microswith .... I would like to ask you a favor: (what are the measurements in mm of your flippers?) length and width and the thickness of the game table .... thank you and hopefully then finish your great project .... it really is very beautiful .... congratulations
Hi Rafael, this won't work with mircroswitches! I've already tried that, these are much too stiff, the steel ball with will not be able to operate them reliably. On Ali Express you can buy such tactile switches as well, the freight charges will not be that high -> there is also a version with the required 7.5mm height. Here is the link there: de.aliexpress.com/item/1005003327417041.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.1c3f2ed3DGDHzh&algo_pvid=62bca277-a9cc-412f-a506-5c57d4b968b4&algo_exp_id=62bca277-a9cc-412f-a506-5c57d4b968b4-5&pdp_ext_f=%7B%22sku_id%22%3A%2212000025230773942%22%7D&pdp_npi=2%40dis%21EUR%21%211.07%21%21%21%21%21%40210318be16553236698331103e0be2%2112000025230773942%21sea However i do not know how much force they need to be operated, but i'm sure it will be much less than a micro switch.If possible, it would be better to go to the nearest electronics shop in person and select the smoothest switch there as i described in the Bumper instructions on cults3d.com The pinballs are about 70mm long, the playing field is 1000x500mm. By the way, in which country/city do you live? Greetings from Austria. Fabian
Hello Thibaut, i put the STL including a step by step Description on Cults (cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/pinball-bumper), however it was so much work and cost me a lot of money so that i can not give it for free - i hope you understand. THX Fabian
One question, are the 4mm tires you used made of NBR or RING? and the other is will you have the stl of the 4mm rubber fasteners? since all the fasteners that I found are for 27mm steel balls .... thanks and good day to you and family
Hello Rafael, i just put the Post's with some additional Information on Cults (free) -> cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/pinball-post-scale-100-80 Hope this helps. Greetings, Fabian
@@fabe1690 muchas gracias amigo te lo agradesco mucho .... me gustaria enviarte fotos y compartir cosas que realizado con mi impresora y asi poder conpartierlo contigo ya que tu as sido de mucha ayuda ---- con mis tierno 54 años voy a cumplir mi sueño de hacerme un flipper ----gracias mil
Hello my friend, 1 question do you have the STL or dimensions of the covers of the Slingshots of the sides of the Flippers .... and since I am doing it to the scale of the size that you made your pinball, I have not been able to find the value ok....thank you very much.....
@@fabe1690 genial .... super ya la compre ,,, muchas gracias pero ..... lo unico malo es que te falto la tapa superior .... si la tiene puedes compartirla ..... gracias
Hello Jose, i put the STL including a step by step Description on Cults (cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/pinball-bumper), however it was so much work and cost me a lot of money so that i can not give it for free - i hope you understand. THX Fabian
nicely done. do you sell or provide the various 3d prints to make a similar pinball? I just got a 3d printer and I'd like to take a try at making one. Please let me know. thanks
Hello Tom! Thank you for your reply. In this phase, my priority is to finish my pinball machine, it will definitely take several months, and I am still in the process of redesigning some parts, e.g. the bumper. After that I may share tutorials or provide STLs. But try out your own design with Tinkercad, it's not difficult! The main problem is not the 3D printing, but rather the electromagnets and the absolutely necessary protective electronics (fire hazard!). Greetings from Vienna, Fabian
Hi, ich habe Dichtungsgummis aus Silikon verwended - 4mm dick , diese gibst mit unterschiedlichsten Längen/Durchmessern. Ich habe trotz erheblicher recherche keine anderen besseren Gummis gefunden. Die 5mm Gummis "echter" Flipper sind zu dick, der Flipper ist im Maststab 10:7 verkleinert. (I used silicone seals - 4mm thick, these are available in different lengths / diameters. Despite extensive research, I haven't found any other better rubbers. The 5mm rubbers of "real" pinball machines are too thick, the pinball machine is reduced in size to 10: 7.) LG, Fabian
your project is getting really good, i'm doing a pinball too but i would like to know if you can make the STLs files available thank you and hope to see your finished project
Hello Eduardo, i put the STL including a step by step Description on Cults (cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/pinball-bumper), however it was so much work and cost me a lot of money so that i can not give it for free - i hope you understand. THX Fabian
