These were the first pinsetters I ever worked on. Who else has worked on or seen these machines?

They have 82-90XL's but there isn't much difference between them and the 70's. The owners didn't have any knowledge about the machines when they bought the business which is why they initially asked me to stay on as the tech until they realised they could just call AMF at Emu Plains if they...

If everyone installed a rainwater tank there wouldn't be any need to recycle Sewage Water. It would also be better for you. I think the Government should help pay for the rainwater tanks to be installed.
