Working on a flipper. Started on a 4 bar but got a little sidetracked looking at upping the power. Servos and actuators seemed to more about lifting than flipping, so looking at other alternatives. Pneumatic maybe an option - but looks tough.
Actually I’m a bit concerned that Steve M hasn’t posted anymore details about May - my 12 year old will be devastated if it doesn’t go ahead.

Brisbane event defiantly happening. We use to have a flipper using a soda stream bottle, safe simple but very bulky due to the size of the bottle. Have an idea for an electric flipper and I will bring parts on 17th. _________________ Satisfaction is proportional to effort and results.
Venue for event, should be big crowd, mainly sportsman but possibility of a few open grudge matches.
Steve is probably a little distracted with KOB at the moment. _________________ Satisfaction is proportional to effort and results.
