Quoted from cfh:It would be good for playfield plastics too, but at .020" thick, it's too thin. Needs to be at least .060" thick...
It's available in various thicknesses and sizes.
Quoted from pincity:Thanks for the tip, was thinking about making one. Anyone know if this needs special tools to cut properly or can it be done with typical tools, like an xacto or utility knife?
I was just going to use scissors, an X-Acto, and a Dremel. I was considering creating patterns in Adobe Illustrator and having them laser-cut at some point.
Quoted from rotordave:You can’t go wrong for $5.50! However, just make sure the product is the same as the stuff the other guys are using ... I’m sure the info is out there.
I assumed PETG is PETG....just like the old commercial, motor oil is motor oil. Three sheets are on the way, but if it happens to be heat-sensitive, 20 bucks ain't gonna kill me.
Is it possible, when your friend made his protector, that he laid down a full sheet over the entire playfield and just cut holes where necessary? I could see that trapping a lot more heat than only covering where the ball travels. Use of LED's should mitigate some of that heat.
Why buy an Orbitor 1 when you can make your own?
