My current computer/electronics build project - PINBALL ! Create, recreate, live the pinball experience!
As a child who spent far too much time in amusement arcades I always loved Pinball and to think that we can now properly emuluate in stunning High Definition original tables and new ones is amazing.
See my Visual Pinball Video - F14 Tomcat with upgraded rotating beacons and flasher domes:
