Cool mod!
I can definitely make more of these if there is interest in them - the winter here in MN has been junk so far, with no snow most of my winter hobbies are put on hold, so it would be good to have another hobby to take their place 
If you guys are interested, just let me know and I will make more of them.
Quoted from guymontag451:Is kwiki not responding because he is busy building his own already? Cool mod!
No, I just got off work.
Quoted from Nibbles:If you guys are interested, just let me know and I will make more of them.
+1 I defenitely want one. I do have a Duff can, but how do I get the foam?
Nice one, now I just need to get a TSPP.

Okay guys, I started making more and before I am able to finish them up I wanted to get verification on one thing - I attached two pics below and want to double check that the clear plastic flasher mount is orientated exactly the same way in everyone's machine (specifically the four holes that lock the flasher dome in)?
The mod will be a drop in replacement for the flasher dome (so it will lock in place and not just sit on top of the plate), but I didn't want to assume that the plastic piece is the same on every pin (otherwise, when you go to install it and lock it in place, the can will be twisted funny and probably look weird).
So if I can get some feedback on this plastic piece I can get them all finished up!

Looks the same on my machine.

All emails replied too (hopefully , if not just let me know). Still a few left and will be shipping out on Monday.
Nice mod and it certainly fits in with what Stern already added to TSPP anyway. At least it lights up and will compliment Duffman mode. Duffman likes your style!
I want one so if you're already sold out, too bad. Make me one after Christmas
Nibbles,Remember if this all goes well,as it looks like it is,you should post and sell this mod on RGP Pinball forum as well.
Aright, so the first batch is sold out, but I will be making more the first week of January - so please feel free to keep emailing me if you would like one, I started a list in order of when people emailed me to make sure I get enough made to get the mod to everyone that would like one.
Merry Christmas!
Hmm, your in Maple Grove. Im just up 94/694 in Brooklyn Park. What if I was intrested in buying one from you in person?

Not a problem at all, send me an email and we can work out a time/date/price.
Everyone that placed an order should have received their tracking number today (if not, please let me know ASAP).
Also, I just wanted to update the price for shipping outside of the US (especially to Canada). I can't find any method cheaper than $25...which is offensive in my opinion, but there's not much I can do. If anyone has a suggestion for the cheapest way to ship from the US to Canada please let me know (the box needed to ship will need to be at least 5"x5"x5").
Thanks guys!
I got my Duff beer can mod from Mike and I must say it's just like it was made to be there. A true "why didn't Stern think of that?" kinda thing. It doesn't block the view of anything and it just fits so well with the rest of the factory toys. Takes all of 5 seconds to remove the existing flasher dome and snap the can in it's place. The way it lights up is just right too! Just enough opacity to not blind you but enough transparency for a nice warm glow when lit. Kudo's Mike! Duffman likes your ingenuity!
Great mod. Almost makes me want to buy a TSPP just so I could add this to it!
Installed your mod Mike and it's fantastic!
Thank you for keeping it attractively priced for fellow hobbyists.
Awesome Mod! I also have an item that may interest my fellow pinsiders. I have a 1 of a kind Duff Beer sign. I don't have that machine but it might make a great topper for someone who does. Looks great on the gameroom wall. It is 23 1/2" wide and 13 1/2" tall. It is professionally painted on smooth plywood. I am willing to help out a hobbyist as well for $30 plus actual shipping. 1 of a kind, 1st email gets it.
Hi guys, sorry for not posting any updates for the past week (was out of town for New Years and just got back last night). I've been working on more of the mods all of today and should be done this week (guessing either Wednesday night, or Thursday).
As of right now, I should have replied to everyone that has emailed me (if not, please let me know and I will get in touch with you ASAP).
One thing I wanted to add, specifically for people outside of the US - I tried my best to find a reasonable shipping price for the box that I have been shipping with, but the lowest price I could find was $25...however, if it works I can ship the mod in two parts (both in the same box) allowing me to fit it into a much smaller box and keeping the shipping cost a little closer to domestic shipping. The only trick would be that when you receive it you would just have to connect the two pieces and epoxy/super-glue them together, let harden, and you're good to go.
I am almost sold out of the second batch, but please feel free to email me if you would like to be added to the list - if I can't get you one from the second batch, I will definitely keep making more until everyone that wants one, has one.
Thanks much guys and Happy New Year!
