Summary

Homebrewer Aaron shows his Warhammer 40K Whitewood pinball at Expo 2026, covering CAD, software, and a motorized gatling cannon.

Marco Pinball interviews Aaron, a homebrew designer showing his Warhammer 40K pinball at Pinball Expo 2026. The discussion covers a 3D-printed motorized topper, the game's Whitewood prototype built in Fusion 360 CAD, its FAST/MPF/Godot software stack, and features like repeating spinner shots, snick shots inspired by Deadpool, and a DC-motor-driven gatling cannon. Aaron says a next iteration will adjust playfield distances and add a Denesi lock.
