Pinball Dolly
Having got enough space for three pintables, the first problem was how to move them about - they are dangerously heavy. I therefore built myself a pinball dolly. The design is my own, and whilst it won't win any prizes for woodwork, it works surprisingly well. Lift is provided by two independent bottle jack available from Halfords (UK) for about £10 each, wheels are from Farnell components (UK). I read comments on rec.games.pinball that it was beneficial to have two fixed and two swivel wheels. My dolly has 4 swivel wheels which I find essential since I have a rather cramped pin room - 4 swivel wheels enable me to spin a machine though 180 degrees around its centre without a lot of shunting back and forth.
