Are you considering making more of these?
And how much would they be to make? I can't imagine them being very cheap.

Well I got outbid hard.
Let me know if you consider making more in the future, even if you have to increase the price a little more.

Today I got my blinders from Bakerman.
It was well packaged and undamaged.

Installation was extremely easy as it's a simple drop-in replacement for the whole thing (excluding the servo board).
I had no problems with any parts coming too close to the blinders or any other part.

Rubber of questionable purpose and questionable origin removed:

New blinders installed. Even came with the screws (thanks)!

I also made two videos:


Testing the blinders. Don't mind the screwdriver in the bottom right; without the apron on, the top blinder collides with the playfield hanger in an ugly way. With the apron, it perfectly aligns with the rubber strip glued to the inside of it.


Some gameplay that shows the blinders working and my lack of one-handed pinball skills.

Thank you very much, Bakerman!

Tried to make a better template for the eyes.

Don't cut along the circles, cut circles with a radius of 1 mm less.

Just wanna chime in that the set I bought 18 months ago still works great and I haven't had any problems yet.
