Finally picked up an Iron Maiden Pro, and hated the lack of detail on the playfield. I also just so happened to have bought a 3d printer a couple of months ago by telling the wife it was to print out parts for the pins. I finally pulled through with that promise. Here's my first prototype to replace some of the flat plastics, an undead Anubis and torches. Thinking of maybe printing Anubis in black instead of wood and painting it up with enamel.

The last pic is the start of a multi piece Pharaoh replacement, test printing to get the sizing down.

Howdy! I found files online for the different objects I am using, some free some I paid for. The jist of it is loading the files into a program (slicer) that then creates the code the printer then uses to print it out. The printer starts and the bottom, and prints 10ths of a millimeter layers as it goes up. There are also 3d modeling programs out there if you want to make your own objects, which is what I am trying to learn now.

Done with printing a prototype, having fun with it...but the same, I really don't need another hobby

Trying to fit it over the Pharaoh plastic. I'm not sure the legality of me selling it, as none of the models are mine, I just stick them together. And also, it may just shatter into a million pieces the first time the ball smacks into it haha

Test installed. Next up is paint.

Installed, I actually like the little bit of graphics that show, it adds depth to it. If I print another I will try a print of it larger, though, interested how it would look.

Things so far...
