This series is so much fun to watch, and I'm not even really the DIY type. I work with making software, meaning I have the luxury of an undo button, so watching someone putting something together in the real world like this is both interesting seeing how it's done and a little scary worrying about a mistake happening that ruins half the project! I guess that shows how skilled you are as I don't think we've really seen one yet!
Ngl, for a while I was rather confused on why 2 player? Who’d win? How would they win? Etc. But now, this makes perfect sense and I actually kinda want one
did you ever come up with a solution to prevent the obvious wear to the flippers? i have built flippers in the same fashion that you have, and the flippers (after some wear and tear) start moving independantly from their axles, as your left flipper appears to have done at 8:20 for example
Hey, I am really exited about every new Pinnball machine video upcoming. Keep up the great work i really enjoy it.👌 What do you think about adding a litte spirit level on the side to see if the level of the pinnball machine is correct...
Just a little suggestion. I was thinking that if a player shoots the pin balls off the plunger at the right speed, they will all be able to go in the top hole and instantly go to the opponent side making it overwhelming. Is there anything you can do to make sure that the pinballs you shoot need to hit your flippers first?
Let's see... flipper backstops to keep them from bending back too much, a guide to keep the pinballs from skipping over the goal. Next would be to cover any open spots, followed by any decorative pieces or places that could be bumpers in the upper area, then paint. I vote Sea vs Sky for the new design
Wood glue us usually stronger than the wood (depending on joint style and surface area). Nails and screws are good fasteners, but they create stress points in the wood. While glue can hold along the entire surface area of the joint, fasteners can only hold in the spots they are at. This can put a lot of pressure on the fasteners.
These videos are awesome. What if you have the very small scenario where each player sinks 5 balls in the opponents goal. What about a special 11th ball that is half blue half red as the tie breaker ball that sits at the very top of the game and can be activated some how to play and clear the tie break.
Idea: This is too much to ask for this project, since I don't expect you to have tracked this, but it would be neat if in the future you included a little blurb at the end of each video showing how many hours you had spent on the project. You'd probably have to define "hours spent", but in my mind it includes time glue takes to dry. The idea is very much that: an idea. You can take it or leave it. I just hope one more comment helps drive views to your channel, as I think this is a really wholesome and relaxing channel that pretty much anyone can enjoy.
Does anyone else think this is one of the best channels on TH-cam? its so wholesome!
i like how the little doggo is in the workshop while Ben works on the pinball machine.
Doggo is big cute!
So glad this series is back from the dead after 2 years!
Wait, ive been suscribed for over two years? Time sure flys by doesnt it??
It sounds so cool. I love the sound of the wood!
Thanks for bringing this back
man this is probably the best timber pinball I have seen great job m8 you have talent !
This channel is really underrated.

Subscribed! Great project!! Looking forward to updates.
Another great video Ben, please keep them coming.
Coming along nicely! Need to show a bit more ball-playing with Doggo in addtion to pinball playing!
A little level built into the side, maybe even a 2 axis level on top + adjustable feet for leveling could be a great addition.
Winning against yourself isn't that easy and you're nailing it.

Very cool. Peace and good fortune and good health to you and your family.
Olá, muito legal! Parabéns pelo trabalho que está fazendo.

Overwhelming is all part of the game! Also while it is possible, it’s pretty difficult to launch it just right to go into the upper tunnel
Cool, this is keeping on!!! Thank you, Ben

Love your videos, keep it up! What would be a fun addition is a digital scoreboard run by an Arduino with some switches :P
After this project is complete, will you do another marble run?
I would personally love that.
Awesome following you since the beginning. Is wood glue really enough?
Wood glue us usually stronger than the wood (depending on joint style and surface area).
Nails and screws are good fasteners, but they create stress points in the wood. While glue can hold along the entire surface area of the joint, fasteners can only hold in the spots they are at. This can put a lot of pressure on the fasteners.
What Falessan said ⬆️ 👍

In the event of a tie you’ll just have to play another round!
How do you keep all this straight in your mind? I had to watch it twice, and it's still confusing.
Great progress
I want another marble machine build! Can I play this?
Oh, wait were nearing the end of the construction?! What's the final area, the extra ball gate?
The bottom where the hole is, the parts with rubber bands, and probably some other small things.
@@elerosvecchio Oh, I forgot about the rubber bumpers too.
What would be be cool is If you made it an out door toy or bike n a loft!!
Good one dookie
Nice
yaaaaaaaaaaaay another video
The dog like playing ball too

the udersite of the pinball machine kinda looks like a chaotic skatepark
Would have been easier and lighter to use PVC pipe probably
Any updates?
My man didn't build a hyperloop
