Nice! My JL backglass was pretty toast and I never saw a good one for sale the whole time I owned it.

That's nice, my Jungle Lord was missing it's backglass too. I put a Gorgar one I got cheap in it for a while to stop the lights shining in my face and then found what must have ben the only one in Australia. It was $200 and is fairly ordinary but better than what I had.

Would you be interested in selling another translite? Excellent work!!

I had a JL in storage for YEARS wil no BG. It was a red cabinet version. Literally the DAY after I sold it as a project machine, someone set me a CL listing for a JL BG for $50..... /facepalm

I gave the link to the guy I sold the JL to and he picked up the BG for a short $50....

Note to self: don't sell anything ever again

oh nice! Maybe I should scan my CP one to archive, or photoshop fix it, and print it so the glass one stays nice.

Hi all,

I reached out to jukehero, but it doesnt appear he has posted in awhile. Does anyone happen to have this file.... I found a jungle lord that has a really rough translite.

Thanks....

Jim

I m looking for this file too

Thanks

Anyone have this image they can email me? Sent a message to OP as well. Thanks!

Also - what thickness glass are people using to sandwich the translite between? 1/16"?

Thanks for resurrecting this old thread. Didn't know anyone did this. Same problem. I have about 15% paint left on my JL. Could use this big time!
PS. PPS just announced a run of Flash backglasses. Hoping they do JL next.

If I get the image, I will pass it along. Fingers crossed!

I would love to get the file as well. Thanks.

- Brian

I would be interested in the file as well.

I am also interested in the file.

Anyone have the file? PM got no response.

I've PM'ed the original poster with no luck a year ago - just like many of you. But here's another idea....

The original backglass is butt-ugly anyway. About 4 months ago, I started searching out an artist or existing art to create an alternative backglass. Tricky because of score displays and other backlit information which will likely be lost. But - something is better than nothing in this case. And some of the jungle themed art I found on deviantart was amazing.

If the artwork is really nice, most of us will forgive things like a missing Shoot Again area. Just an idea - and I would prefer to see someone else do it anyway. But ... I'm tired of waiting. I need a push on this. Does anyone have a template with score displays in their proper places? I don't even have a portion of a Jungle Lord backglass to get dimensions.

You guys know BGResto has these right? Or should the title be changed to the JL Cheapskate Club?

I don't think that's an option for everyone. I can think of several ...
1. The DIY'er who is into pinball and has several machines because they have $$$ from fixing and/or making their own stuff, not always paying someone else for parts.
2. The person who doesn't have a glass at all thus doesn't have anything for them to restore. (Don't they require an orig?)
3. The person who has a JL in bad condition, resell value doesn't justify the expense.
4. You are me, think JL has a top 10 ugliest BG of all time, and just need a template for the score windows to turn over to a college art student.

I think it's funny that you suggested the idea of cheapskate - really, I laughed ... but in my 20 years of collecting and restoring, me being a 'cheapskate' has allowed me to increase my collection and place pinball in people's homes for prices below most. I love to see people learn how to do things too - so they can increase that collective knowledge base in the pinball community.

Ok ..how does one get this file ? My jungle lord backglass is shot.. just picked one up tonight..

Maybe pinball backglass on facebook they are a copy, he print on glass

Thank you.. il try .

This is a great attempt and looks so much better than my own.

Awesome, i'm so glad you're still on and possibly have this file to share. I could benefit so much from getting it and producing a replacement for my own cabinet. My email address is [email protected]. Thanks so much in advance. Tim

Is there anyway you could send me the image files for the jungle lord ? Send to [email protected]. My Playfield and back glass are really rough.

Has anyone received the file they could share?

Thanks.

I'm also hoping someone out there could pass the file along.

Could anyone send me this image. I tried messaging but life is busy these days so I understand that I didn’t get a reply back. Mine is really bad. Thanks all
