Hello from Andy

[Andrew Page]

Hello,

My name is Andrew Page. I am from New Jersey in the USA.

I primarily am interested in Mindstorms and Technic.

My involvement with LEGO robotics goes back to the pre-Mindstorms days. In my first class we used Fred Martin's HandyBoard computers and had to solder our own sensors. It has gotten much easier.

I recently showed a (mostly) functioning Pinball Machine at Brickfair, and became infected with the GBC virus. I am waiting for $80 worth of basket/soccer-balls to show up.

I found Eurobricks while searching for information about self-assembling LEGO robots. Sounds like a bad SciFi movie.

Wow nice introduction! Pleasure to have you on the site I would really like to see your pinball machine! Any chance you can share a link with us

Very cool Andy! I used to be into Technic, and I watch many YouTube videos of people's Technic creations. I even have several books about how to make Technic pieces function. Any chance we can see your Pinball Machine? I found Eurobricks about a year ago looking for new LEGO sets, but your discovery sounds interesting.

Here is a picture. I wish I had shot some video.

It was a fun project, but definitely a first draft. I simply ran out of time. (The code was finished at 1:45AM in the convention hall the night before public viewing)

But it will serve as a great learning curve for version 2

After work I will try and find the correct forum to post more details about the MOC

Thanks for the warm welcome
