Quoted from Oneangrymo:Hm ? I paid 450 usd . No biggie I’m assuming most cost was shipping
Thats because you had both the bezel and the Motion tracker plus wanted full value placed on the delivery.
Quoted from Oneangrymo:Yes exactly ! I advised him to call it airlock bezel
Yes it seemed to confuse a few people, Some understood others didn't.
Not intentional as I labeled each item separately with separate prices.
Apologies to all if this happened and contact me if you want to send the item back.
Anyway, a lesson learnt on my part.
I've taken Oneangrymo advice and now included "Airlock" in the description.
Quoted from MK6PIN:Hi Andrew, please post the price of just the motion tracker here, not including freight charges, if someone is to purchase a single unit. Thanks
Given this is the only optional item for the apron ( back on topic), potential owners will know what this cost is.
The apron is either going to be built/priced with or without this mod, and I will charge a shipping fee based on the apron and where it's going.
These will only be shipped UPS expedited and insured at full value. I can ship internationally thru them, and the item is too expensive to go another route.
Without freight from me it's £185. How much is your apron?
Well one day left before Friday 
Come on Mark leave the day job play some Alien 
and post the details on here 
The suspense is getting to me and I havnt ordered one

Come on Mark leave the day job play some Alien and post the details .....

Quoted from MK6PIN:You want me to post my BOM so you can verify I'm telling the truth, or show what you're doing is cheaper? Maybe like when averell ( a great Alien supporter btw) did the acrylic speaker kits, and you promptly slammed his approach, then making your own.
I will post tonight the things I had promised and can share to date, total price of the apron and including a list of interested Pinsiders, in the order received. Felix, you have no worries, you're name will not be on it.
Ridiculous and offensive. Good luck with whatever you are doing. I've got no part in it......unbelievable.....
Averell didnt design the first clear speaker panels he copied them from Beowulfz07 design
Quoted from Averell:Mmmmhh, I can remember that I improved the speaker panel somehow.
I think the main difference was the recessed grill and the interchangeability.
Ah yes, and the limited quantity.
Not sure how you mean improve. You just copied the original wood one.
I just mentioned that Beowulfz07 was the first to do it. Not you. Am I wrong?

Quoted from liorillusion:hello guys
im glad to be part of this project. im getting a lot of messages and requests about this alien machine to make sculpts or other custom work.
and finally mark got me into this project. it was very challenging to sculpt this with very limited height and i must say this part have TONS of details they are so small and looks AWESOME. i was also happy to help mark with some design ideas for other things on this apron. right now i cast 50% of the parts and we will paint all next week. im sure you will love it!
im glad to see on the list some of my costumers!
if you didn't saw my work before you are welcome to check some of it here

Yep really excited to see the your work on this . Nice to see the Alien pinball having so many new items added.
Just having the update from bcd was one thing but to have all the other mods pop up for us is a great thing.
Good luck to all.

Sorry guys but in my opinion the parallel capacitors is an amateurs solution to an under rated PSU.
I agree with razorsedge
It's probably going to cause issues rather than fix any.
I think you may find Issues/failures on the IO pcb due to this .
Quoted from Kneissl:It's been years, but i'm fairly sure the caps were inspired (and sized?) by what Stern and other switching power pins do...
https://www.pinwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=File:48V_power_supply.JPG
Just because Stern wants to cut costs doesn't mean its the correct way to do it.
Consider a short from that supply elsewhere.
The PSU would limit to a certain extent. The caps will not.
Stern may have some circuitry for that, Maybe .

Sorry MK6PIN
Ive contacted both Oneangrymo and
Indypin direct to sort these problems out.
Guys really dont understand why your posting on Marks thread where both of you ordered these direct from me.
