Information

      Ive been playing pinball and servicing pinball machines most of my adult life, so i decided to make a scale model based on a system 11 Williams Pinball Machine from the 80's, but in a fathers day theme! This project is packed with details, and theme to the point that I wish it was a functional real machine! Very impressive looking project but quite easy and gratifying to build. Guaranteed to put a grin on Dad's face or become the new center piece of your growing Atomm Arcade Collection!

Step2: Assemble Cabinet Body

Preview

Glue tabs and assemble cabinet main body together, Tape seems tight while glue is setting. At this point you can also glue the mesh inserts over the vent and speaker holes in the cabinet body.

Step3: Assemble Head

Preview

Assemble the pinball head unit, again taping seems while glue sets.

Step4: Glue head and playfield Supports in Place

Preview

Glue Head Support into the top back of the main cabinet body, along with the playfield support pieces down each inside edge of the cabinet body.

Step5: Glue Playfield Blanks in Place

Preview

I had parts of the playfield such as ramps, the truck, the bbq, etc cut out of the playfield directly to add depth. Glue their blank counter parts back into their place, so that we can glue on top of them later.

Step6: Finish Head / Backglasss Unit

Preview

Glue the backglass supports into the inside of the head, allow to set. Then apply a bead of glue and install the backglass and speaker panel below it.
