Yes, I'd put padding on the glass (blanket and/or cardboard), fold the head down....and then, do you have furniture sliders or castors to put under the pinball legs? If so, it should slide/roll pretty well.

I hope it works out for you! Wait until you try it with a Shadow or STTNG..man, those are tanks, too. (Just get it up on your hip, and try not to take too long and you'll be fine)

@@pmwolf3 Thanks! In the end, I couldn't do it. I could lift it up enough to try and slide something under it (my plan was to slowly 'step it up' this way), but I had already put those carpet slider disks on the front legs so every time I got it off the ground it would start to slide forward and I couldn't use my feet to then kick the holding object (a bucket) underneath it. After several failed attempts, I was forced to call down my wife to put the holder object under it as I lifted the back end. It wasn't pretty, but it's up now. Thanks for the awesome video, I'm sure with MOST pins this works just fine. If only I hadn't put those darn sliders on the front legs first...

@@Sudz28 oh yeah, sliders increased the degree of difficulty by a LOT. : ) Merry Christmas! Hope you are all having a great day! Glad the machine made it onto 4 legs!

Best I can say is....I exited out completely, had to do the mission starting from scratch, and it worked the next time through. Restarting from checkpoint DID NOT WORK (I tried it a dozen times).

@@pmwolf3 okay, ty for reply. Will trt it later

Leg levelers: I always put the front legs all the way down (that way all my machines match). Back levelers, I adjust based on gameplay preference. I generally have a high angle for faster play, but you may prefer a different feel. There's really no wrong way to do it, unless you have all four legs set the same (ie: game is completely flat), or unlevel.

Ha! I'm glad you like it!

The pinball room is 16x64. Dayhuff has more pins...and a very, very impressive collection (as I'm sure you know!) Total games (vids + pins)...its close. Maybe I've got more, but I dunno.

They're....all on.

AstroCarpetMills. The main pinball room is called "Stars." I'd have to look up what the other one is. We've been very happy with it.

Pete Mathis Thank you so much for the info and love the arcade! It’s amazing and God bless keep the vids coming my friend.

It's actually really light once you get it into position. I've never had an issue. There are, of course, many ways to do it. For me, this is absolutely the easy way...and I've done hundreds like this.

Zero interest in any of those. Music pins aren't for me, I have a MB already, and JJP Pirates isn't for me (and I like the Stern POTC that I currently own)

Sorry...they are way too popular here. Good luck in your hunt!

That's a Johnny Mnemonic with a Matrix Translite. (Someone made a custom Matrix pin a few years ago...based on JM. I ended up with a translite).

Mike fitzee: Most of the time, yes. I do forget...and generally it isn't a problem. (However, once the game is completely vertical, the balls set loose, and there is the possibility of having one smash a plastic. I've never had it happen, but that doesn't mean it isn't possible. Basically...take them out if you remember, but if you forget, it probably isn't the end of the world).

D K: Well, Indiana Jones was my first, and is probably still my favorite. I've been playing a lot of Spider-Man and Tron lately....so those get big thumbs up, too.

I hope you mean the original IJ. I just purchased a custom built Virtual Pinball cabinet since I have no room for a collection and love so many different tables. The virtual tables have come a long way and play really good now. Get's delivered friday and I cannot wait!!!! Gonna break out the chief, beer and it is on!!!! (I also have a 4 player MAME stand up cabinet for all the classic arcades)

D K : Not clinically proven yet.

Hey Jason! For the most part, I'm doing my best to keep my two toddlers alive, and pinball is a bit more on the back seat. I have added games since this vid (like a Hobbit), but don't have a Ghostbusters or Batman 66. I do hope to put up another arcade tour at some point, but who knows when I'll be able to pull that off...

pmWolf awesome look forward to your videos and you have by far the best collection of pinball machines and arcade games what other games did you add and hope you have a great day

Did it have an animated backglass, where the players ran around the bases? Your best bet is to try ipdb.org, or Pinside, and see what baseball-themed games you can dig up. If it isn't a pitch-and-bat, then that definitely will narrow things down...

It's a real, actual place, I swear! Also, "Mathis Arcade" just sounds a lot better than "Mathis Private Location." When I talk to people, it's just easier to say "Hey, check out the arcade I put in my basement", you know?

Ah, so it's not an arcade.. It's a private collection. I think people should distinguish a location if it's not open to the publc. There's a place 20min from me with over 400 machines open one weekend a year.. ugh. Enjoy your private collection!

Resident Evil Umbrella ...Wtf???? No Strippers?

Resident Evil Umbrella eBay is probably the worst place to buy anything. Head to Pinside.com first...educate yourself, and check things like the Mr. Pinball Classifieds.

Thanks, I'll look into that. Whenever I see those eBay prices, I just have heart attacks, because some of them can go up to $9,000, and I don't feel like spending $60,000 on pinball machines when I rather that money go towards a down payment on a house to put them in.

Oh gosh, yes....STTNG is a heavy beast. But, for the record...I've set up and torn down at least a dozen STTNG's using this exact same method. It does work.
