Had to block a lane due to a missing ball popper and trough...eraser was a perfect fit.
Would prefer the actual parts, but this will do for now.

Missing ball popper?

#3 10 years ago

Yea, the 01-1059 trough is the hardest part to find. The ball popper assembly isn't the real problem.

This is a tip to be sent to RePlay (the magazine whose Publisher, Eddie Adlum coined the name "Jersey Jack" by the way) and Play Meter. Ops will be buying buckets of Magic Erasers in lieu of the proper parts from now on. Good call, by the way.

Gorgeous game, btw. I agree! I should stock up more Magic Erasers now.

I'd just be careful with this - magic erasers of course are a cleaning product that act as a very fine sandpaper, and I probably wouldn't want one on a playfield for an extended amount of time. There is a warning to not use them on gloss or polished surfaces. I don't think there's any harm in using one temporarily, but not sure I'd risk having one forgotten about and left in for a long time.

Thanks, figured it might rub down the surface over a period of time, so I put a piece of tape on the underside just in case. Hoping it will be just temporary, after reading Tom's reply

This is one of many reasons I joined Pinsides. (Despite all the WOZ vs METLE vs AC/DC BIBLE threads, way too much drama! But people are passionate about their favorite pins, so I am forgiving.)

Threads like this keep me riveted, and coming back for more. Thanks, Tom!
