I'm installing all new ramps in my cyclone project but cannot understand why no one has redone/recreated the blue skillshot ramp...seems like many of them are banged up out there...any chance you might do those someday... they would look cool in that shiny blue color you do the pinbot ramp in....just a thought.

Have you ever contemplated making any of the ramps for Judge Dredd?

Quoted from underlord:

Definitely Judge Dredd ramps. Soooo many folks restoring these now. JD has so much in it compared to more expensive Stern Pros.

Agreed. I play it more than my IM. Fast game!!

Quoted from Freeplay40:

I've started a list....

Add me to the list for JD. Mine are good but it Doesn’t hurt to have a back-up set just in case.

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!

Quoted from Freeplay40:

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!

Sounds great. I’m definitely in for a set of JD.

Thanks again. I just turned 49

Quoted from Freeplay40:

So.... Good day today. After spending nearly 2 weeks to redesign a platen specifically for the Judge Dredd big ramp, after an initial forming failure today, on my second try after making a few tweaks to both the platen and the forming process, I successfully formed the monster. I have rough cut the ramp out of the form and will spend tomorrow hand finishing the first one. Once it is finished, I will be test fit all the pieces in the game. Once I am satisfied with the fits, I will spend a couple days just forming and rough cutting out the pieces. Once I have a bunch ready I will start finishing them. With the loss of our favorite resin for molds and the difficulty with the big ramp, this has been the toughest project so far....but feels real good to be at this point.

Exciting news!! Thank you for the work you do!!
