Who, What, Why and most importantly How to dive into Homebrew and the essential part FAST pinball plays. Aaron Davis builds the boards under the playfield and I still drain up the middle like the electronics personally offended me. Grownup Adjacent Podcast Ep. 02 is FAST Pinball, homebrew, and the slow realization that my garage is not a factory. This is the guy who makes the control system so other people can build a pinball machine without inventing electricity. I am the guy who has looked at a wiring diagram, nodded, and then done the opposite. We get into what actually changed so a normal person can get a ball to the flippers, the step that still kills a build, and the part where I pretend I understood all of it. Chat is open. High score attempts are fictional. See you in the live chat, you beautiful drain machines.
