Quoted from scylla:Waiting on Canadian shipping and will then paypal immediately - thanks for all of this!
Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:Money sent via PayPal, the fastest way possible.
are u sure it's the fastest?!?
Only another 30 peeps or so left to pay! Quite the task you are taking on Colson! much appreciated man! Looking forward to the upgrade that Morpheus came up with..woot!
Pretty sure he will post in this thread when your plastic tombstone cover has shipped! Relax and focus on your other 1st world problems.
Haha..I'll check the box again for the Columbian booger-sugar! And yes, that's my mutt. He was giving me the stink eye 'cause I tried to sneak to work without walking him! Very fast shipping! Everyone is going to be pleased with these! Way better than original!
Quoted from mollyspub:Just installed my coffin mod from Brock along with the tombstone mod and found some fitment issues.
The tombstone mod isn't angled like the original and doesn't clear the main ramp which had to be trimmed when installed with brocks coffin. See pics.
I was worried about trimming the ramp but I thought ... What the hell, I've got the new replacements anyways!
Turned out well. Pm with any questions.
I've extended the tombstone back with a Mylar piece so it fits behind the coffin mod. My plastic cover or ramp will need to be modified.. not cutting the ramp yet tho! Gonna try and find another solution! I will post a pic when I figure it out! (You can see the lil extension bracket I cut out of Mylar that pushed it back into the ramp)
I'd slice the back of Morpheus's piece to fit the ramp but also have concern of it hitting the ball on the coffin lock .. i would have to cut the bottom corner out to let the ball roll past & not sure I wanna use the "smash to fit" technique yet!
Quoted from mollyspub:If I'm understanding you correctly ,
Extending the cover back will just make things worse with the tombstone mod on. Would have been great if the OP had made narrow covers for use with brocks coffin mod!
I think it would be tough to make this mod more narrow to use with Brocks coffin mod..just no room with the ball lock lights wires/sockets.. I laid the tombstone beside it for now while i figure out what I'm gonna do. Haha, don't mind it like this..but don't look quite right either!
Quoted from 30FathomDave:Sweeeeeeet!
What the heck?!? Did that just slide right in? Looks great!
VERY cool of you to help make your friend's wedding memorable ! Im surprised you're alive enough to post!
Nope..im gonna measure my posts right now to compare with Colson's #'s and remove that mylar spacer i made. See if i can get it to fit. I have a friend coming over to help with opto problems tonight so ill let ya know how it goes sooon!
I got 'er done! I ended up moving the wire ramp forward( a small amount) by loosening and re-tightning where it mounts.(pic#4) I also slid the plastic base of the coffin forward where the screws will no longer line up. (Pic#3)took my mylar bracket off and used original mount plate. Tried a ball on the ramp and it passes by fine!(pic#1,2) The screw to hold down the 3-D cover dont line up but i'm sure it will stay put.

That red powder coating sure does pop! It's awesome to see young kids interest in pins! & crazy how good they are right away! Haha
I didn't tighten the two screws (into hexheads) under the 3-D cover down super tight..left a bit of play in em. Also wondering if 30fathomDave left the 4 screws out of the coffin base & one on top of the cover as none of mine lined up. I dont mind mine like this..its not going to move i dont think.
Quoted from scottmaggie:Nice.. where can we get those?
Post #550 sir! Mezelmods...next week! I agree, they look sweet
Quoted from Tmezel:FYI, This mod will not fit with Brock's mod.
What about the clear speaker panel? I paid $190 CAD & was told it was the last one on eBay.. can you still get them?
1 vote LED! the dots really seem to fit the older games in my opinion. I have an LCD for Metallica and thought it was the only way to go..then i got an LED for Dracula! Its so much better than than original! (Imagine that!)
Quoted from Medisinyl:On BSD it requires a clear speaker panel as well. Both products linked.
http://shop.colordmd.com/led-replacement-display-for-bram-stokers-dracula-pinball-machine/
ebay.com link » Williams Bram Stokers Dracula Pinball Machine Speaker Panel Dmd Brand New
That eBay link shows the speaker panel with a RED screen...not the CLEAR one needed for BSD..**EDIT **never mind! I see it only has a red film! Which is removable for the colordmd .
I dont think u can peel the red film off the original.. i would be pissed if you can! Haha, i should go check! But pretty sure it's a red lens (not clear)
Shit boys..you're right! Purple blood! Haha ..i never even noticed..im not very fussy with it being exact like the original..but i understand how some people want it the exact same. As soon as u turn the colordmd on..you'll stop looking at the speaker cover!
Quoted from smiley:Put me down for an original, thanks. Update me on price with shipping to Canada too, please.
$62.64 USD.. you wont be disappointed!
Quoted from HighVoltage:Is the money still not sent??? Ahhh, was hoping this wasn't going to be a multi-month wait...
If you want to PM me your address i will mail you mine from the first batch and have Colson mail me yours. It's a piece of plastic for a toy on a pinball machine! Gotta hate those multi-month wait's. Don't know Colson, but i bet he isn't getting paid to help you out and i bet he has a real life issue outside pinball preventing him from getting these shipped. But i also bet u that if ya just chill and have a lil patience... everything is gonna be aight... aight?! **Actually selling BSD tomorrow so no pm..aight!
Quoted from Shadrac:Hi guys,
I bought my Tombstone from Jeroen aka Morpheus, it was sent fast, very good package, no problem at all, perfect deal.
Thanks again, this mod is just perfect for my beloved Dracula.
Love never dies.
Cheers
The ones shipped by Colson were the exact same way. It costs too much money to ship each one individually to north America so that is why Colson stepped up and helped us all out. He didn't have to nor did he make any profits off them. Glad you enjoyed yours! They're a nice mod.
