This has been such a great series. A V-pin is next on my list of projects once the new year rolls around, so thanks for documenting your entire process so we can learn from it!

@@wayofthewrench I'm a big fan of the Stern TMNT Pro table that they released in 2020 so if I can find that artwork, I'll use that. The color scheme matches my arcade cab so it'd be perfect for my Nerd Lab :)

It's an amazing build, but I'm a bit sad that this building series is over soon. Hopefully you doesn't stop publishing videos about your VPin in the future, eg updating the system, or adding tables. Thanks a lot again, this building series is THE resource for helping people to build a VPin!

@wayofthewrench 10 месяцев назад

Thanks Gerhard! Don't be sad, the budget build might be almost over but there will be lots more content coming out for vpins, arcade builds, auto diy, welding, etc. plus I plan on doing a bunch of upgrades to the vpin. Thanks for the watch and your support for the channel!

This is the best series ever! I love how maticulous you are. Far beyond that of a stern asembly line. Just amazing to see how perfect and precise you get everything. Well done!

@wayofthewrench 10 месяцев назад

Super thanks dude! Love that I can be a part of this amazing hobby. Yeah no dissing major pinball manufacturers but there's just no replacement for spending time and effort on the little details to make a project like this perfect. They can't compete when there's a bottom line to reach and the extras take too much time and cost more. My vpin cabinet will probably out live me the way I built it....lol. thanks for the watch and your support for the channel!

@thechampagneroom1 7 месяцев назад

You are such a craftsman, well done! I have been following this build since the beginning. I would like to say you handled the problem well. I did something similar and fried my light up coin buttons and still have to order new ones. Can't wait to see you on some FX3 or Fx leaderboards

@wayofthewrench 7 месяцев назад

Thank you very much, I do try hard to make the best videos I can so it's always nice to hear from subscribers. Yeah mistakes suck. Ya know, I just don't have the time to play lately.....my channel demands more videos and I can barely keep up as I'm a teacher and a Dad who is also trying to do everything to the very best I can.....which is exhausting. Thanks for the watch and your support for the channel. P.S. I'm not that good at pinball. I did have my very best Theater of Magic the other day though....4.7 billion. Cheers!

@Kwistenbiebel100-ns5ko 4 месяца назад

@TerryRed 10 месяцев назад

Yup.... being Canadian means... pinball parts are not cheap! I was posted to Petawawa, Ontario when I built mine. So there wasn't "any" electronics related parts to buy nearby anywhere as its pretty isolated, and everything took forever to get there! Despite being an electronics tech, I just did whatever messy hack solution worked at the time. Seeing your immaculate clean build makes me super jealous! I'm still using my hacked up xbox 360 gamepad, lol (my KL25Z is only for nudge / tilt bob). Very nice work!

@wayofthewrench 10 месяцев назад

Yeah it's crazy how much stuff is here in Canada..... it's literally 50 to 60% higher. Don't be jealous, every build deserves love for the time and effort we put into them. It's not just the final product, it's all about enjoying the build too. I'm sure you enjoyed building yours too! I had a blast building mine and I'm looking forward to setting up some Terry Red FP tables! Thanks for the watch and the props! Cheers!

@cpace123 10 месяцев назад

As someone who have been building their own VPX table and watching our channel over the last year. I feel your pain. My main goal of my machine is buy as little over the counter stuff as possible finding alternative ways to accomplish as close to the same thing a much lower price.

@wayofthewrench 10 месяцев назад

Nice! That's what I did too but I spent a little on parts to really make it authentic. Not too shabby for $1,500 though. Anyone can spend money but it takes a real craftsperson to create without the money! Thanks for the watch!

The Vpin community is very creative and dynamic and having such a great teacher sharing and explaining will help grow the hobby. I will also say, your attention to detail such as the grounding and cable management, has me contemplating some adjustments with my table :-). All the best.

Wow. Moving up in the world. Virtual Pinball legend TerryRed even commented on this video! Nicely done, and I am sure you are super proud of the cab, and rightly so. I have followed this build from beginning to end and your choices and explanations have been top notch. A total cost breakdown of your cab would be awesome. This is especially true since you called it a "budget" build. Keep up the great work!

@wayofthewrench 10 месяцев назад

Right? Pretty cool when Terry Red loves your work and Major Frenchy shares out your playlist. Pretty cool. Honestly, it's such a cool hobby..... I'm just glad to be a part of it and help contribute to it. Yeah I probably will make a budget breakdown video for it. Thanks for the watch and your support for the channel!

@Tiger_Of_Old 10 месяцев назад

It's been a long journey, 2+ years I think, you should be proud of it! Congrats! I think the main lessons are resilience, as things don't always go right, adaptability as you have to find solutions to problems, and persistence. 👍

@nerdloftgaming 10 месяцев назад

You sir are a master craftsman! What a journey, and this final bit was just so satisfying to watch. The interior is one of the most beautiful and clean I’ve ever seen. I love how clean the interior LED strips were integrated AFTER THE FACT - it turned out perfect! And it can’t be said enough how much work it takes to put together a video of this length. Kudos on a job well done. Can’t wait for the unveiling! Now play some pinball 😁

@wayofthewrench 10 месяцев назад

Thank you very much for your kind words! I try hard to make the very best videos I can so it's always nice to hear from subscribers.

@jestermgee 10 месяцев назад

"It's just money...." The catch cry I have been using for months doing my build. Amazingly I am at the point of having to fit my painted backbox to the cab and as you mentioned in past videos about paint, oil based paint is touch dry in 24 hours but even after a week is still not cured and can easily stick and come off especially when a little thick so I love that tip with hte wax since I litterally thought about that just 30 minutes ago thinking I wanted to start fitting monitors and stuff but dont want it to stick when loaded. Damn, I have actually a spare KL25Z board already flashed with Pinscape and tested but I decided to install a Cleveland Software Design PinOne solution since that is so much neater and self contained than messing with power supplies and all that cabling.... would also solve almost every issue in this video since everything is a simple plugin connector. Costs a little extra but even with the $500au shipping and import taxes, it saves so much time.

@wayofthewrench 10 месяцев назад

Yeah it's just money but money's also money.....lol. it's easy to spend too much too. Yeah I'm sure the pinone system is good, just a bit pricey for me. Glad the wax trick worked for ya. Thanks for the watch!

@marchafb 10 месяцев назад

Fantastic series! I had my cabinet pretty much done and your series inspired me to add some toys, SSF, addressable LEDs and completely re-do my front end. I did my build about 2 years ago and I also painted the inside of my cab white and used those same plastic wire minders and they are awesome. Sorry you fried your KL25Z. They are incredibly hard to find right now. So if anyone is looking to start a project, but can't find a KL25Z one option is to check out Cleveland Software Design. He has all kinds of interface, expansion boards and virtual pin parts. Thanks again for doing this series and hopefully getting more people interested in this very cool hobby. Side note - you can also use the end of your soldering iron (just not the very tip) to melt the heat shrink tubing.

@wayofthewrench 10 месяцев назад

Awesome! Glad I could inspire you to mod your vpin! Gotta love all the cool tech eh? Yeah Cleveland stuff looks cool, maybe I'll try it out for another build. Thanks for the tip about using the soldering iron. I think I'm starting to get to the point where I know so many tips that I start forgetting them too. Lol.

I almost gave up on the project when the second board burned, but I continued and I'm close to finishing the pinball. Now your project is wonderful, your pinball is fantastic and your video series is the best on the Internet. Congratulations!!

@cschaaf 10 месяцев назад

Great series, thank you! I'm not there yet, but one of these days I'll get to build one. One suggestion, make that LED USB connection easy to get to so that, if you ever need to power down to work inside the box, you can externally power the LEDs inside and use them as work lighting ;)

@wayofthewrench 10 месяцев назад

Bruh....you have to build it! Just start and go slow, take your time and you can thank me later. It's way too cool a project to not do it. Yeah not a bad idea.

You skipped my video! In the words of Great "How dare you!". Lol. The led lights are only on when the coin door is on so there is no leaking light. There aren't any light leaks even when it is on though either. Thanks for the watch!

You're videos are very helpful. I’m following your instructions to check if my power supply is grounded but my multimedia doesn’t beep. What should I look for on the display to verify ground?

@wayofthewrench 4 месяца назад

Multimeter? Yeah most don't have a beep function but all of them will go to zero or close to zero when you put the leads together. Hope that helps. Thanks for the watch!

@kowalkk1 4 месяца назад

@@wayofthewrench Meant to type multimeter (haha). Anyway, I think I figured it out. I was touching a part of the case that wasn't grounded so getting nothing and getting really high numbers on the other side of the case. I got lower numbers when holding the probes more steady.

Great video Emil! Sorry for your loss of the kl25z, real bummer! But its part of this hobby, i remember grilling a adressable led stripe with the wrong power supply (12 instead of 5v), pops up like firecracker ;) As always, good tipps and even problems where shown, great help for us all, thank you!

Is your bass shaker connected to the sub output on the amp with the front exciters? Any reason you didn't do another bass shaker with the rear exciters? Space? Cost? Unnecessary?

is a real pinball machine cheaper ?

@TerryRed 10 месяцев назад

A newer real pinball machine can run $10,000 or more (Canadian) easily.

@danw3735 10 месяцев назад

Yes but only has 1 game :D

@shivorath 10 месяцев назад

Possibly, depending on condition and desirability. A real pinball machine can also be MUCH more expensive depending on those same factors. Although I would question the fairness of comparing a single pinball table to a virtual pin that can house effectively infinite tables.

@wayofthewrench 10 месяцев назад

God no. A decent pinball machine is $7,000-20,000 and it's only one. You might get a worn out EM one for $1,000. I spent roughly $1,500 for my vpin. Thanks for the watch!
