Mine has the wear at the flippers too. I have a NOS playfield and will be doing my first playfield swap at some point.

Quoted from Matesamo:Any chance we could get you to scan the flipper area in a high rez format before you do the swap? I would like to try and make decals for it.
Yeah. I will try and remember to grab the playfield the next time I go down to my climate controlled storage unit. I already cleared it.
Quoted from Lathroum:Anyone ever scan the flipper area to make decals?
I bought an NOS playfield to fix mine. I will scan it before I do the swap. Not sure when that will be. Lol
Well. I stopped by and for the playfield. Man was I surprised when I walked around the corner. My storage unit was full of water. They were remodeling the outside of the building and someone didn’t take steps to prevent the rain from coming in. I wasn’t even aware they were working on the units. Needless to say, I was pissed.

So now to the playfield. It was wrapped in cardboard thank goodness. I got a little water transfer from the cardboard but at least it wasn’t sitting in water itself.

It’s in the shop and drying nicely so I think it will be good to go.
I will try and get scans tomorrow.
So I am assuming that the only scans needed are the flipper wear area. Is this correct? I have the wear on my machine so I will scan that area on the new playfield. Any particular dpi people are looking for (300/600/1200)?
Any other areas need scanned.
What would be the best way to make available?
Alright
Here is a 600 dpi scan of the lower playfield flipper area. I loaded it on dropbox since it is 95mb. I only have the standard account so the link will only work for 7 days. So someone might be able to download it and put it on a permanent site if they want. The scan is just a pure scan and has not been edited at all so you will have to do all of that. The colors are not as vibrant as the ones on the playfield so you will have to color match as necessary.
Here is a picture to show you what area was scanned.

Hope this helps you guys out.
