    I've got a few parts I'd like to do as 3-D printed - Zaccaria post cap, and glass trim, one the lifter for Premier Diamond Lady, which seem to be impossible to find, and the other the standard late 70s Bally trim, just with a wider flange (the backglass is a bit offset, so I need to have a bigger flange so that there can be padding on the outside of the glass to make everything look right). The post cap probably wouldn't be much, but something tells me that printing off a few feet for the trim could get pretty expensive.

    I printed this for my RG. The plastic holding the ball lock cover was all kludged up, so I spiffed it up a bit by following the theme of the game. Two prints since I only have single extruder, which means I can only do one color. The holes in the rails were misaligned, so I had to print accordingly.
