This started out as a demo table to demonstrate pinball mechanisms and circuits to my classes. It eventually became a game in itself and I use it to spark an interest in the science and art of pinball. It is a 2 foot sqaure by 12" deep box with pinball mechanisms that keep 3 balls in constant motion until they eventually come out the drain hole where they are delivered to the front for manual reinsertion into the arena. It has lights and graphics and is themed as a "Faith Tester".Related site: http://www.ujuju.com/
