About a week ago I saw a post by Dayhuff……
"Looking for the acrylic part # 03-10008 that catches the ball in RFM. Mine is broken and makes the game unplayable. I'll take new or used as long as it's in good condition. HELP!!"
If I see something that I think I can pretty easily help with, I like to try. I asked John to send me the pieces he had from the broken RFM ball catcher and I would try to make him a replacement. I think this will work for him...

That's great Mark, well done. I'm sure others will need this part as well.

Great job Mark. I love the initiative you took there and I am certain yoy just made his day!!
Still holding out for Grand Lizard and have ramps I can send, Mark! They would be so sweet in green!
I would be in for a Hollywood Heat replacement as well. Either red or clear or anything not busted up! Lol.

Nice. I don't need one at the moment, but I'd like to order one before I do.
Seen some chatter for Space Shuttle and a client in need of the ramps. Please add me to the contact list
Quoted from Malenko:Any chance of a Getaway U turn ramp thingie?
I'm not familiar with that ramp.
Quoted from Malenko:Any chance of a Getaway U turn ramp thingie?
Isn’t that a metal ramp?
U turn ramp COVER thingie, my bad I missed a word. The plastic that covers the U turn takes a beating from balls going airborne from the "Super Charger" My plastic is dented in so bad its actually curved in. Im amazed its not cracked through. I can take a picture if you'd like. Was just an idea, I know you cant do TMNT ramps cause they are too big so I was thinking of small pieces that would be great to have.

@freeplay40 Mark there are 989 Getaway owners, and they have a club for owners. If you are considering making this ramp cover you may want to post in their club to gauge interest.

Jokerz! Ramps?
I have a fairly unbroken set which could be used to make molds if you don’t already have them done.
PM me.
Thanks!
Quoted from Freeplay40:Sorry, nothing for Hollywood Heat.
Been away from the thread a while...have you considered doing Hollywood Heat?
Hollywood Heat has been requested several times and it's right up my alley given the size and the color, so chances are good for it. Also a lot of requests for Jokerz, but I think it will need to wait for the bigger heater.

Is that the piece in the upper left corner?

Winters over. What’s all this Heater talk?
Quoted from fane:Hello everyone,
I am looking for someone who can reproduce a Frankenstein ramp, the superior ref 545-5565-00.
Or if someone has one in very good condition to sell me, I'm from France but I have family in Atlanta ....
i think at freeplay40
thank you very much

This ramp is always broken. I would buy one (mine is broken)
Quoted from AntennaMan:I'd be in for a Frankenstein if you decided to bump it up in the order. I could use a Dirty Harry left ramp too.
Dirty Harry right ramp also
Quoted from Freeplay40:Hollywood Heat has been requested several times
Note: The ramp needs an oval type exit hole... The round exit hole that is used on the OEM
causes the balls to get caught when in multi-ball and two balls get shot up the ramp.
I had this game when it was NIB, and on rout, and I would get calls for stuck balls...
It was always at the ramp exit.
I had to cut the exit hole like the first hole that is used on the spiral ramp on Pinbot.
( just not as long) : It fixed the problem.
Quoted from Freeplay40:Is that the piece in the upper left corner?
Yes, top left corner

[quoted image]
Not something I'm real interested in doing, but I will help/coach anyone on how easy it would be to do yourself. PM me.
Came across this post searching for a lower loop ramp for Hurricane ...... Your work is outstanding and after reading for a hour I am guessing that ramp is too big for your setup??? I figured I would post anyways before I get out the plastic welder. Any possibility of making that one?
Thanks
Quoted from Freeplay40:Never say never!
I'd be in for the lower Hurricane. If you didn't make such a nice looking center ramp my lower wouldn't look so bad!!!
Now now boys and girls when Mark gets that new heater done the center ramp for Comet will be its first assignment. Cannot wait for that. When this happens Mark will that include the ramp flap and the sticker?
Quoted from PinDeLaPin:When this happens Mark will that include the ramp flap and the sticker?
Nice try... Actually as we get closer I will try to work something out with Planetary. I did check Bay Area Amusements' site and they do show the decal, but out of stock.....So I would assume the artwork is available.

Well you cant blame a guy for trying
Jody Gontero posted on Facebook that he is making Hollywood Heat ramps and they will be ready to ship in a couple of days.
OP: The Hollywood Heat ramp factory is in production this weekend. Made up a purple tinted experiment, and will try teal as well as pink this week!
Me: If you aren't on Facebook pm me and I'll ask the seller for his email address.
All of these Pinsiders expressed interest in a Hollywood Heat ramp.

I also have ramps made for Arena. Gold Wings is about 2 weeks out and Spring Break is on deck after that.
Added over 5 years ago:Peace out.

Why are you posting this on Marks topic? Why are you messing with his topic? Please take this down and start your own topic.

That goes double for you. Start your own topic.

Agreed, ridiculous
I agree with mustangpaul they need a separate thread but one mention is good gets these ramps off the ever growing list freeplay40 now has. Now if we can go to there thread and get 17 pages of requests for gottlieb ramps going.
There's a reason I didn't post pics here...mentioning them here was a courtesy so they don't get duplicated. But I'll go back to the old way of keeping everyone in the dark if it pleases the crown. Way too many touchy people here.
Quoted from JodyG:Way too many touchy people here
It's not about someone or anyone being touchy, it's entirely about courtesy!!
If you start a thread about making Gottlieb ramps i doubt you will have any worries getting the word out to the pinball community.

Freeplay has always said he doesn't want to do duplicate efforts... so if he hasn't seen that he may or may not reconsider that ramp now.

True and i do agree with that but there's always a direct option of PM.
If I was Mark I'd be thrilled that people here were spreading the word on other ramps. Cuts down on the nagging. And maybe gets him a little closer to his ultimate goal of the Comet center ramp! Also, it's not like Jody made the initial post about his ramps, and he's not making ramps that compete with what Mark makes. Seems all good to me.
