My Pinshields arrived in the mail today. Opened them up and laid them out on a AFM. They flatted out in about 4 hours. I was worried the indentation made from the pony tail holder would not come out but 3 hours later that indentation was gone as well. I will be using them on the games next to any game I am working on. I think I will order a few more to lay on games that are out of service. With 35 games in the game room, one or two are always out of order.
I just ordered several in blue for my Bally games both standard and wide body. Thanks for manufacturing these in blue! Maybe red next?
I actually only have 5 blue pinshields left. They can be sized at standard widebody or pinball 2000. I’ve marked them down 20% on my pinside shop until they are sold. After this I won’t be making blue ones for at least the foreseeable future. Thank you.
All of the blue pinshields are now sold. I will be closing my Pinside shop for at least the next few weeks until I am able to get some more material in stock. I have enough stock to fulfill all orders that have been placed and all remaining orders will ship out Monday 8/10 . I will update this thread once I am able to reopen. Thank you for your support.

Ugh. I’ve had three black standards in my cart. Am I out of luck if I order? Thanks in advance.

Looking forward to picking one up when you have them back I stock. What color(s) are you expecting? Thanks!

Wow, I placed an order a couple hours before you posted this. Glad I pulled the trigger. Thanks for the heads up!
Just a quick shout out to Pinshield. I ordered 6 and they arrived today. The Pinshields are a very nice product and I am more than satisfied with my purchase. They fit really well, look nice and protect the playfield. If anyone is on the fence, I wouldn’t hesitate to place an order!
Damnit. Good product, good service... like I needed to buy any more pinball stuff! 
EDIT: Just ordered 7. Can't wait!
Quoted from nvu4prod:Justin has been quick to respond with my last few orders. Great product with fast shipping too!

You should have gotten them in gold to match all those daytime Emmys!! lol
Hey! I got a present in the mail today. I ordered 7 of them on October 4th, they processed the order on October 5th and then shipped out October 7th. All in all, a fast transaction!
Each one was individually bundled and they were wrapped in nice plastic so there weren't any scuff marks or anything.

They cover trendy games!

They cover big games and small games!

Hell, they even cover stupid games!

Buy with confidence. I'll definitely refer these to my friends. Great job with the product and the entire fulfillment process!

Quoted from roar:What is in those 2 Pinball 2000 cabs? That's not actually a Wizard Blocks is it?
Yeah, here's a closeup!
... totally kidding, here it is with the shield removed.
I built this from about 2013-2017.
The game next to it is a Demolition Man 2000 conversion I designed back in 2012. I featured it at this year's pinball expo homebrew presentation (in another thread, at the end of the video).
Both were super fun to design, and pinshields fit them like a glove!
IMG_20201020_105704 (resized).jpgFor those of you with a pile of games, what do you do with these things when you pull them all off.....just chuck them under a game?
It's tempting, but at $19/each + 22 games it adds up pretty quick. That's a ColorDMD right there.

I just layer them on top of each other, roll them up and put a extra large rubber band around them. Stash them in my closet, super simple!

Most of the time I’ll just stack them all on whichever game is out of order at the time (which is currently TZ). Or just drape them over the back of a chair. Besides that my game room is currently located in my garage and my HOA won’t let me cover the windows in the garage door so I need UV protection. Not to mention all of the grass and dirt that gets blown into my garage from the gardeners that collects on the glass. They might not work for everybody in every situation but they work for me.

ZOMG. Overreach much? I really don't like HOAs.
I'm not sure what my hoa rules are in this regard. When I moved in they had mirror tint on my Garage Door windows. Is that something you could quietly do?

Yeah, Ive been considering just doing a really light static cling tint with UV block, the mirrored tint will get me fined lol

Whoa, what's the story with that AFM topper on a road show?
I only have one of these. Could use more but I don’t know where to put them when I’m playing. All my games work and are used regularly. Anyone else with lots of these that play their games a lot? Need a better solution to store them when I’m playing.
Thanks!
I’ve also been working on a cocktail arcade pinshield. I’ve had a few people inquire about them so my friend acitti loaned me the glass top from his machine and I was able to make a couple of templates. I should be able to have these up on my store in the next week or so. Here is the finished product.
5A60C5F9-1ED8-4710-984B-A8CF417D74A9 (resized).jpegYes that one was ms pac man size. There are 2 glass sizes that are used and the difference is the radius on the corners. I’m trying to find an acceptable radius tool online that I can post a link to on this forum so that we can easily identify which glass size that you have.
Is shipping really this expensive? Just bought 2 and was charged 19 bucks for shipping. If so, so be it, just seems like a lot for two of these that probably fit in one tube.
Thanks!

Shipping is quite expensive due to the length and weight of the package. The shipping cost you pay will reflect what im charged to mail the package out. I have found the best rates to be through USPS priority. Ill get your items mailed out tomorrow morning and hopefully you will receive them by Saturday. I will include the Tracking number so that you can follow the progress. Thank you for the order 
Quoted from TDK-WPG:Finally getting around to posting a photo - really happy with the new PinShield! Great customer service too. Buy with confidence.[quoted image]
That is a good looking SBM!
Thanks! It was a very lucky find for me - had been keeping my eye out for a very long time for one, and then this came along just outside of Toronto. The previous owner bought it from someone who had done a decent restore on it, so it was in great shape when I picked it up. I ended up replacing the backglass when CPR started doing them again. Very happy with the machine over all.
