They are modular, head is 3' lanes are 7' or 10', 30" wide (if I
remember right). Very reliable, get Model S if you can, newer than
H. Also the lights in the score, the sockets get hard and crumble
away, so if you can get the LED version that would be best. As a side
note the 100 point holes are nice too if you can get them, and the 13'
version is better IMHO.
Any way great game to have, and they are a workhorse...least trouble
in my collection. If by chance you find a head until, I have a lane
section in Columbus.
Good luck
Mark

They are modular but still very big to move, I have 4 lanes here and we had
to move them lately and let me tell you that these are quite heavy.

Most problems on those are the tiny metal arms on the microswitch that goes
missadjusted..

well. if it doesn't fit down the basement (i've been able to get an
air hockey, galaga, defender, mr do, rally x and space harrier down
there.. i guess it'll just go in the garage. :-D

assuming i find one of course.

thanks for the info.

Because of their workhorse sturdy reliable nature, whats your
suggestions on best places to buy them? Whats the pricing on a NIB?
Do you bother to set them up with tickets or can they be set to play
in a non-redemption mode?

Much like building a MAME cabinet, I wondered if anyone has built
their own skee-ball. It would seem to be a fairly easy thing to craft
if you are handy with wood.
The scoring switches/display might be a challenge...
