Virtual Pinball machine
The goal for this project is to fabricate a digital/virtual pinball machine. This could be the beginning of a Lowell Makes Arcade. This could definitely be a selling point with new members.
Preliminary Design
- The pinball machine ideally will be around the size of a standard mechanical pinball machine.
- There is an instructable for a digital pinball machine on Instructables.com that goes step by step in construction.

Materials
We will need wood or mdf for the cabinet.
If we want it to be close to a full size playing field the instructable suggests a 37" flat screen. It can be built using smaller or a short throw projector built into the base.
Monitor for the back glass/scoring section.
Arcade Buttons
Keyboard Encoder
Task List
- Source materials and initial design.
