HOW TO MAKE A PINBALL MACHINE: The White Wood

HOW TO MAKE A PINBALL MACHINE: THE WHITE WOOD
Today we cut our first pinball prototype playfield aka the 'white wood' and install the flippers and slings! I also show you some ideas for creating your own pinball rotisserie you can use to more easily work on your playfield (credit to Ed from Pinball Mayhem for his video showing how he created his rotisserie which I borrowed heavily from to create my own).
