Welcome to my pinball webpage.

Pinball is my hobby and it means many things to me. From buying and a selling pinballs, to the repair and restoration process. And; of course, to the actual playing of a pinball game for fun and competition. 

I competed but did not qualify in the now famous PAPA 7, (Professional Amateur Pinball Association) http://www.papa.org/papa7/index.php  in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. A crowd including the presiding official and world champion pinball player/Stern pinball designer Lyman Sheets gave my son rousing applause for his game play on a Bally Twilight Zone in Minneapolis at Lloyd Olson’s annual pinball tournament. 

I enjoy both the mechanical pinballs, (pre 1974); to the solid state pinballs, (made starting in 1975). I have a workshop in my basement capable of almost any type of pinball repair and restoration process.

Also in that basement is a game room presently housing 8 pinballs spanning over forty years from a 1963 Williams Heat Wave to a Bally Twilight Zone.

If you own a pinball that does not work I am happy to visit with you to see if I can help. There are also great resources on the internet that contain anything needed to repair or restore in a pinball machine, from http://www.pinrepair.com / to the newsgroup rec.games.pinball.

If you want to buy or sell a pin I am happy to help. There are buyers out there for your pinball and I am happy to put the word out for you at no charge. I have done this countless times for people. I might even have an interest in buying your pinball myself. My email address is here, This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it and my cell phone is 641-430-0151. Feel free to contact me for any reason.

This website is a series of pictures about various pinball projects I have undertaken over the years. They include pictures of a pinball I restored for the Palm Springs Air Museum to a Bally Paragon with an NOS playfield. Also included are some pictures of interest to pinball hobbyists. These pictures are good examples of my experience and abilities with repairing, restoring, and the fine tuning of the pinballs game play. Serious pinball hobbyists know the feeling of a perfectly set up game the minute they start playing it; the casual player only knows its fun to play and the non player loves the way the pinball looks in the room.

Once again thanks
