I forget more often to put the balls back in, put the glass on, then go, oh crap. Don't think I ever forgot to take them out. I think it was BoF, uses a plunger to auto block the trough. That is even slicker than this, as there is no door to set and clear.

I dont have to take the balls out of Labyrinth?!

@@gopooalreadyplease5842 Sorry. It was AB that has two trough locks, not BoF ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-L7DE8uY6gyc.htmlsi=FXl-W87IE0SQFGRX

Williams figured this out back in the late 90s. Why is this still even a thing with Stern?

@shivorath 28 дней назад

So the answer to forgetting to remove the balls is to forget to lock the trough lock. Am I missing something? I don't see how this solves anything.

@OVERKILL_PINBALL 28 дней назад

Lol.. yup.. if the mechanism automatically slid down with gravity it might be fool proof but I don't think it does (at least 100%)

@joshphelps4363 28 дней назад

Dumbest product I've ever seen 😆 🤣 magnetizing and having to remember to set the lock and not the balls you literally here jiggling around.

@moobutt 27 дней назад

If I remember, I do the rag thing. IF

@andrewmartin6265 28 дней назад

$20 plus five dollars shipping for what a shop rag can do. And I can use the same rag for ALL of my machines...no installation required. No thank you.

@stjamespl 24 дня назад

I just use an old sock (clean lol), but have also had balls fall out from between the flippers. Also, sometimes I'll have to manually eject a ball to the shooter lane after lowering the playfield. The balls will stack in the trough where the game cant detect it and will cycle through ball search, or give a message that a ball is missing.

Pinball 2000 has a gate that closes itself using gravity when you lift the playfield

@tomphelps8611 27 дней назад

Love that on my Revenge… such an elegant solution to a common problem

@tntamusements 25 дней назад

But...my usual thing is when I lift a playfield, the balls go everywhere...everyone eEXPECTS that to happen when I lift a playfield! 🙂

@dayz112 28 дней назад

clever idea. i was always forgetting to remove the balls the first months i had my first pin, but since then i never forgot to put a piece of foam to block the balls again. I still forget sometimes to remove the foam after putting the glass back! :D

@corytinz 28 дней назад

seems like a cool product, surprised there wasn't something like this already.

@jaspajones7045 28 дней назад

Sad stern never thought of this. Probably would be a $100.00 part according to them.

There are Pro and Premium/LE versions. I wonder what the physical difference is? Didn't realize the trough would be different.

@george-corrigan 14 дней назад

Now! I created my own version and put it on thingiverse/printables. Plus I created something to catch any balls from falling out of the drain while the playfield is raised.

I use one of my socks, lol..or if I'm waxing I'll use a microfiber cloth that's sitting next to me..I am careful about the rollover switch though, so I don't just blinding shove it in the hole without a bit of caution, lol.

@mrfuzzcat 28 дней назад

Just a small square (block)piece of foam. new Sterns come packed with at least a dozen of them. Funny, my premium acdc has powder coated armor but cheap plastic apron. Stinks.

@peparcell 27 дней назад

Cary can you recommend replqcement speakers for my Funhouse? I asked on Pinside and I get random answers.

@CaryHardy 27 дней назад

@peparcell speakers are going to be subjective as hell. In the end, you can update the speakers all you want, but if you don't have an amp to push those speakers, then it doesn't really matter.

@jackpoulin6443 26 дней назад

There is an old and extremely cheap, 100% working part that sell for less than 5$ that prevent balls from falling when you raise the playfield ... JJP have it installed on all their pins. I have installed it on every older "non JJP" game I have. Why Sterns still having problems with this very simple and cheap to solve problem is beyond me.
