Wow, that's amazing. Just glancing at the title I assumed he'd teach you how to *play* pinball, but how to actually *build* a table is so much cooler!

Maybe John will be looking to work our deals with successful students to actually get these things built and mass-marketed.

Here are a few more details he posted on another forum:

Hi...

Thanks for the comments. We will setup a form for ideas (what would be cool) but the main focus is on design theory, laying out games, themes and moving into building your own play field. We will have some guests pop in to help and you will leave with your own board, tools and stuff. Also there will be a 3d cad element and some 3d printers.

But yes email or call me if you need more information. Also I am looking for a pinball tech apprentice now, maybe 2 for our new studio we will be moving into next month.

Nice! Wouldn't it be cool if some of the designs would eventually make it into The Pinball Arcade? Maybe JP has some ideas lying around that never made it into real tables which could be released for TPA?:cool:

It would be fantastic if they released a textbook or online courses as I do not have the ability to physically attend. I have a degree in mechanical engineering and I have mulled over the idea of trying my hand at building a pinball table....
