Astronaut pinball from 1969.
 
This is my first build, so I hope people find it acceptable. I based it on images from the real machine I had (took images before selling it).  I have seen photos of machines with a bounce back post between the flippers, mine did not have one, so this does not have one.  
 
I have included a simple backglass for multiscreen setup as well.  
 
I have tested this on both my desktop and cabinet, and it seems to be working okay for me.  
 
I will also be uploading a 4 player version called Moon Shot, same table, different color scheme.  
 
Thank you to forum members who patiently answered a few questions for me when I got stuck, and to Loserman76 for all the great work he produced that both assisted in this table being made, and also inspired me to even try it.
