Fix This Flippin Thing

07/30/2026

You might think that a topside teardown just involves cleaning the machine, but that is where you could be wrong. We don’t just tear the machine apart, clean it, add new lightbulbs, and put it back together. We test play it to ensure that all coils are firing, and kick-outs aren’t sending your ball immediately into the drain. THAT’S THE WORST!!!

If you have a dirty machine that could use additional touchups, give us a call or send us an email.

I want to take a moment to thank all of my customers for your patience during the past couple of months as my other business took on it’s busy season and Fix This Flippin Thing had to take a bit of a back seat. I’m getting back into the swing of fixing up pinball machines, and appreciate all of you more than you know.

As I get back into the shop, this is what we are working on for a client. They were looking for a Roller Coaster Tycoon, and I happened to find one that was in decent shape, just ever so DIRTY!! I have pulled it apart and am starting to put it back together. So far, I have replaced the bulbs with LEDs, replaced a broken coil mount, and replaced all flipper assemblies.

Can’t wait to get it completed and delivered to its new home!

Are your flippers sticky or weak? Do not lubricate them!
