I notice that there are only pictures of 2 cabs. Is everybody else having the same trouble I am uploading a photo here? It keeps saying I'm out of room?

I use Imgur, and then post the link in here with the image button and copy the link.  I would like to see some more stubby's!

I get an error when ever I try to link to my photo

Nice Wayne!

Thanks.

Here's what it has:

KL25Z board for all inputs and nudge

2 -  3.5" Dayton Tactile Transducers hooked up to a Lepai 20 watt stereo amp. (the only signal they get is from the mech sounds)

The monitor is an upcycled laptop screen, just for loading tables and downloading from the web.

A really small wireless keyboard and a wireless mouse. (I have plenty of other wires!)

The joystick is for room recentering and table up and down. (easy to find in VR)

I built storage posts for my touch controllers (easy to find in VR) and a hanger on the right side for my Rift.

Real pinball legs, but a fake lockdown bar made of wood. (feels real in VR)

I took all the dimensions directly from my Fire! cabinet, so it's totally regulation all the way.

Made out of 3/4" plywood, so it is very stable and has some mass, yet easy to move around.

My stubby isn't a pinball.

Ok here is the poor mans stubby. Still need to install the hooks on the side for my touch controls.

Nice UW.  Although I can 'Imagine' you putting your head through that picture when you look at a playfield up close.

I pull it out from the wall when playing. Wish vp wasn't so demanding. I can play new retro arcade neon streamed through virtual desktop. Vp i have to use the link cable

I had a stubby before it was cool back in 2009. (No VR though). Now I have a full size.

How do I post a pic. Its waaaay to big. So I go online and resize it to a couple hundred kilobytes, then "that extension does not work here. Its a jpeg btw. IDK.

I'll sometimes upload to Imgur (no need to sign up), and then post the link here.  That works for me.

Try saving as a .jpg or .png. I also have trouble with the .jpeg format.

Trackball is a nice addition.

Proud owner of a stubby here as well:

Full DOF using real pin mechs. The flippers, slings, bumpers all work under the glass.

Nice, Started building one very similar to this but kind of got put to the side. What are you using to drive the solenoids?

I have a Pinscape All-in-One driving real pinball mechs for the flippers (including EOS switches to protect the coils), slings, bumpers and chimes. Can't beat the real thing!
