Man makes pinball table from scrap wood

Now THIS is why you should save every little bit of scrap wood you come across. And every rollerball mouse, too, incidentally, as user “seamster” over at Instructables built a homemade pinball table from various bits of wood he had lying around and, as icing on the cake, used an old mouse rollerball as the pinball.

Here’s a video of the table in action:

And as if that wasn’t cool enough, seamster has since added a huge swooping arch and “a ‘Plinko’-style pegged board” made of dowels glued into MDF. Very cool and, remember, no batteries needed.
