I wanted to post a cat picture, but the traitors are neatly curled up in the bed.

I've been eyeballing the Chemex coffee makers often used by my favorite cafeteria here in Kouvola. I finally got mine as a Christmas present from my partner! 🥰

Been a warm winter so far around here. Today was the first time I saw this thermometer I made last summer to show double digits negative.

This rainbow silk-PLA is fun stuff for a lot of less serious prints. Not very dimensionaööy accurate, but it looks pretty smooth for organic shapes. #3dprinting

I was going through all the music I've listened over the years and then somehow forgotten about. Today I rediscovered The Chemical Brothers' Salmon Dance.

I swear every pin project I'm not actively working on always magically turns into a semi-permanent storage for junk. #pinball

I originally intended to start my ICFinland channel with a Christmas cruise video last year, but when we returned, I realised I needed a lot more b-roll and random content to put it together.

So this year we went again and now I had enough stuff for the video. It's a lot less refined than what […]

Shhh! The pins are sleeping!

Our last public opening day was last week, now the pins can take a small breather, as we'll open again in January. #pinball #arcade

Our arcade's coffee mugs are all surprisingly pinball themed. Before we had 9 different ones, now Elvira's House of Horrors joins as 10th model! #mug #arcade #coffee

We're back home. After being catsitted by my mom over Christmas, both of the whisker faces are now in for some lap time. #cats #catsofmastodon

Hey @pinballmap, I've come across a curious corner case. Where are the pins on cruise ships listed? There's plenty out here.

Only one thing onboard this year and it's broke. But at 2.70€ a game and Insider Connected disabled, I guess I'm not going to cry.

First time on VR's double decker scenery car on service towards Helsinki. We usually take the cabin but I wanted to check this out. #travel #train

[Adult toy, crude humor]

About a month ago I got a picture a message from my friend, with a huge, pink jelly dong in it. The conversation went something like this:

RIK: This needs to go into James Bond
APZ: This needs to happen.

We laugh about it for a while […]

A fun fact: Sega pinball machines used to have Sonic in their flipper plunger links. I don't know any other brand that that branded that specific part. #pinball #sega #segapinball #arcadehistory

Who Dunnit looks a bit naked without the slots mechanism. #pinball #pinrepair

Looks like it's that time of the year that I get to fight against mantras again. One of my older pinball repair clips has gone a bit viral and the Well acshually... guys are crawling out of the woodwork.

In the video left side flipper mechanism's plunger and link parts get changed because the […]

Speaking of Apollo 13, I to this day adore how they added a radio message sounding sound sample saying "shutting down all systems" when the coin door is opened and the playfield high power is cut.
