I have been playing around with the idea someone else posted with a 3D printed bracket for wire habit trails. Theirs had 2 wires, and I needed a bracket for 4 wires, so I modeled these in Maya. I might rebuild it in Fusion 360 down the road to make customization easier if you don't use Maya.

Here is the 3D file:

I thought it might be interesting to try and design an inline drop target assembly in Fusion 360 instead of just buying one. It was a fun build and makes me wonder how many assemblies could just be 3D printed. It seems pretty durable, but I guess time will tell if it holds up with that reset coil firing over and over.

They used to, but changes to the reset plate required that I move the hook for the spring further up. I could modify the reset plate to make room for the spring, but it was easier to just move the hook. I plan on casting the drop targets in clear resin and embedding EL paper, so they were going to have to be custom anyways.

There are already holes for mounting standard target dropping assemblies, but I don't really need those for my current game build. I used the dimensions to create a pencil template to cut the holes in the playfield, so I will let you know how it performs once it is installed under the playfield.
