I am definitely interested in the Judge Dredd Ramps, if there is a list I would like to be apart of it.

Pretty sure this a will be the 50+ post asking this question, but is anyone doing the ramp(s) for Time Machine (DE)? Thank you 
Quoted from ourdave76:In need of Independence ramp. Is that on you list to be made?
I hope so. Need a set for Independence Day and Judge Dredd.
No data east Time Machine ramps yet all the ramp makers looked at it and kicked it down the road for another day. Numbers of games are not big and the complexity.

I’ll give you the complexity, but just this thread alone has a solid number of people posting that they need a ramp replacement for TM.
Just so you understand. I run 100 ramps at a time. That would be a lifetime supply for my Grandchildren.. Can I run 30 ramps, of course. After spreading the cost of a tool, thermoforming and CNC cutting, across thirty ramps instead of 100, the ramp would probably cost in excess of $500.

A better-than-original ramp from you Larry would certainly beat this:
The updated quality with the modern materials and improved design by one of you skilled craftsmen would surely soften the blow of the price
Just checking again on any status updates for the Judge Dredd ramps? My restoration is down to waiting on these guys since all of the ramps in this game were cracked/damaged in some way. Sadly has been sitting unfinished now since the spring when I first heard they could be coming out this summer.
Thank you,
Jason

I am in the same spot...
Quoted from Robotworkshop:I am in the same spot...
I am, too.
Well, I am up for a set of Judge Dredd, as well. But, being in this hobby for the past ten years, there’s one thing I’ve learned…and that is patience when waiting for aftermarket parts. Most of these guys have full time jobs or are retired and don’t have all the time in the world to make parts for us on a whim. I have learned to appreciate the fact that they are even making them to begin with, which makes me feel fortunate enough to fix up a game with ramps that are , otherwise, unobtainable. So, long story short…patience grasshoppers….they will be completed when they are completed. And, thank you for making them so all of us can have new shiny ramps in our games!

Nice...I have been sitting here wondering how I should respond!!
All so true. Summer is usually slow for ramp sales and this year has been slower than most!.....and, honestly, I have been enjoying the break and relaxing along with helping my kids work on a cabin. The JD ramps will come, but given it's a six piece set, it will take a while. I started dismantling my JD yesterday to extract the ramps so I can get to work on these.

Thank you. I’m sure they will be a welcomed upgrade to many JD games!! Enjoy your time off. You deserve it…life is too damn short and kids grow up quick!

What he said, especially the kid part!
Quoted from lrosent345:What he said and the Grandchildren.
Me three...its been a great summer of not doing much ramp stuff for the first time in a few years. I painted myself in a bit of a corner the last two autumns with promised projects for some persistent customers. That will not be happening this year. I'll re-evaluate new projects in November at the earliest.
Judge Dredd Ramps...
First I have a question for the JD owners. I purchased a very nice example of the game for the purpose of remaking the ramps. There are 4 ramps on the playfield, a subway that takes a ball from behind the J-U-D-G-E drop targets to the VUK that feeds the left flipper....then there is a subway (2 piece) below the Dead World wheel that has an exit to the other subway. What I cannot figure out is how a ball can get into the 2 piece subway below the Dead World wheel. Am I missing something? It just looks non functional to me.
As far as the ramp reproduction is going, I have removed the four play field ramps and stripped them so I can get started on the molds for those. I will reproduce the subways if there is interest in those.
I will double check the subway on my judge dredd. As far as I know , all the top mounted ramps are cracked but subs are ok. Will verify tomorrow.

Thanks to those in this thread and JD owner thread for responses. Appears the second upper subway, which does have an exit to the other subway, is nonfunctional. With that in mind, I think I will lean towards the reproduction of the 4 playfield ramps at least in the beginning. I will consider the functional subway if there is need for it. I will be making all of the four ramps out of my thicker .150" plastic for greater durability.

Eagerly waiting on the playfield ramps, thank you for all that you do.
Quoted from ourdave76:Is there a list to get on for the 4 Judge Dredd ramps?
Yes and you are now on it.

Quoted from Pinballer73:For what it's worth, I'd like to see the subways made along with the ramps if possible. If I'm going to buy a plastic ramp set, which I definitely will, I'd like to replace all the plastic ramps & subways.

Hi i sold mine. But if I remember correctly in the subway under dead world is no ball going there. Is just to lighting purposes. (I sold it a year ago to a friend. If you still need more help let me know). Very happy whit Demo man set and the wabac ramp. Thank you
Quoted from ccbiggsoo7:add me to the list please
Already have you on the list!

Hi! Any chance you have Spider-man ramps? I did not see it on the list, so I assume not. If you needed a set for measurements etc, I would be willing to send mine if that meant I could get a new center ramp! Thank you!
When the grand lizard ramps are made, are they going to be clear? or an option for clear.
Looking back at the ramp placement, I cant' remember if there is art under the ramps or not.

Nope, it's white under the ramps.
Quoted from nephasth:Nope, it's white under the ramps.
Would be an interesting reason to make up some custom art decals though?

Mandrills. Mace wielding mandrills.

LOL... Yeah, been very distracted and taking advantage of the summer weather for non-pinball projects. But, alas, the rain has returned, so will be back on the ramps soon!

Awesome. Will finally be able to get my JD back together once ramps are ready.

I'll buy one of these as well. Thanks for all you do Freeplay40! I already have a WABAC ramp from you. Need the other 2 ramps to complete my restoration.
