Introduction: Lego Mini Pinball
Hello builders! I am here today to show you a little pinball build I made. Inspired by Lego Man Production's pinball machine, I decided to make one of my own versions with the bumpers moved by gears. Took me at least an hour to make (I didn't keep track). The ball has to be a metal marble to work well. You could do a slightly smaller, less weighted marble as well. The white piece on the bottom is to stand the course up, but is optional to use (but keep it handy just in case you want to use it). The floor is 2 different colors for this reason: the white represents the field, and the yellow represents the field to the ball container. The obsticals on the field are removable, so if you want, you can change the obsticles to something different (that is something to fit that space). That's all!
How it works:
Place your pointer fingers on the gears. Move the gears up and down like your actualy playing the game. I guarentee you will get the hang of it soon! (Demonstrating video coming soon)
The pictures you see throughout are from the completed build. Only build what I say to do.

Step 1: Base
This is the bottom plate of the machine. Ignore everything else except the 6 plates.
Step 2: Gear Bumpers
Make 2 of these. Build the next 2 layers up on the 6 platforms from the previous step. Any way you like!
Step 3: More Layers!
Keep adding layers of platforms until you reach 7 total layers. This will make it pretty durable.
Step 4: Flooring/Wall
First off, walling. 1 layer up reaching from the edge of the grey gear to the corner (do this again for the other side) and corner to corner. Leave a 1x2 space for the gears to breathe. Afterwards put a layer on top (see pics). Once finished with the wall, floor up the inside however you like, anyway you want! The 1x2 pieces in red and orange are the spaces for the obsticles.
Step 5: Basket
Straight forward. You can build the basket however you like, just make it in a 6x6 fashion.
Step 6: Stand
Choose any of the following stands. Put them on the underside of the board as shown in the 2nd picture. Then that's it!
Step 7: That's It!
