What it means to be a Top Shop!
Welcome fellow pinsetter and pinspotter mechanics to the KMK Top Shop challenge. We put this challenge together to showcase some of the best shops and work areas from mechanics around the globe. These areas are what we would classify as exceptional in appearance, organization, cleanliness, and efficiency. However, the true purpose of this contest is to show future generations not only how to set up the proper work area but also how far you can possibly go with it.
We challenge you to stun us with the personalized touches and creativity that you have implemented into your work areas. Send in those pictures today!

AMF Mechanics
Though Kegel carries only a few parts or additional items that may interest an AMF center, we wanted all mechanics to be able to participate in this challenge regardless of equipment type. We know that there are some pretty impressive shops around the world that have AMF pinspotters.
If the winning center has AMF equipment, we have decided to offer a $400 credit* towards your purchase of any products from the KPP or PPP parts line. Pinsetter Parts Plus is newest addition to the Kegel Pinsetter Parts Brand.
*Credit must be used before 12/31/20. Not redeemable for cash.
