Quoted from jGraffix:

No sorry I just designed these last night after seeing this thread.
If I take out the shading on the flag I can easily turn this into a MirrorBlade GameBlade too.

make the mountains and the flag mirrored and you will have a winner!

i always thought the spinning wheel would have served better as a TURBO boost. possibly turbine looking centrifugal spinning disk.
not so crazy about the speaker covers as i like the originals. but i do applaud your effort.i am sure they will look good when finished.
does anybody make the Porsche shield logo in the center of the wheel? my back glass is fine but seems most if not all have been rubbed by the wheel at some point. i was thinking possibly a decal from a model may work if the same size.

needs the Porsche shield in the center! nice job!

Quoted from Gryphun:

Definitely. This will be my homework for tonight. Trying to get the silhouette to cut in such detail - probably will paint only black outline since colors might be too difficult.

print a waterslide decal.

Quoted from indyguy:

Just picked up this checkpoint not long ago and I’m just seeing what all is out there for them. Great info on this thread.
Here’s a little something I’m in progress on. Printing my own pop up target decals using the Porsche emblem. I slapped these on to test and see if I like them. I need to reposition them to line up perfectly and then put a clear protective layer on top next. I like em though.

so your re Naming the game to Porsche instead of checkpoint!

Quoted from whitey:

This looks great ?
Can this be purchased

check point is a fun game its even more fun with two or more players high score gets victory laps via multi ball to add to score for about a min.

#385 4 years ago

Whitey, not sure if you into originality but check point came with DE flippers and had ultimate stickers on the flippers and coil mechs.
Also drops have fluorescent “checkpoint”
Congrats on a fun loaded game purchase!
Head for the check point!

Quoted from MJW:

Mine is off center also. Could have sworn someone posted in this thread a solution with some wood to fix it .

Quoted from joelw23:

Ordered a resistor for r95 to see if that fixes it...
Anyone else’s wheel spinner off center?

try tightening the hinge screws on the light board.

Quoted from JodyG:

I have sent out a couple ramps to be installed on Pinsiders machines. I have one more to send out and then will be running the rest. I can check for you, but delivery to Australia bay be fairly salty. I know that due to dimensional weight charges UPS and Fedex xharge here in the states now, its $50-$60 just to ship them from the east coast to the west coast of the US. This will will most likely preclude me from doing more of the larger ramps in the future.

I just shipped one from Phila to MD $22 fed ex
So yes costly shipping

Never seen one with win on it aside from that one example which isn't stock. Note the pop rivets holding pitstop plastic.
