I believe both sets have been spoken for.

I may have the STTNG rail and could do that one but will post a pic just to make sure it is the correct one.

I do not currently have TSPP rails to use as a template but can make them if an original set is sent. Another pinsider has inquired about TSPP as well as may be sending them to me so will update if I find out that it is the case.

You're on the list.

I have done sorcerer before. I think I finished the rails with a natural stain and several coats of lacquer. They turned out nice. I did charge a little more because I believe some of the rails are a thicker stock. Nothing crazy, just not $40. Drop me a PM if interested.

bump

Thanks for the endorsement.

I have not.... But would if you need them.

I now have a set of T2 to use as a template.

bump for a set of FH rails that just became available.

I made a set of FH rails but the buyer decided they didn't need them. They are ready to ship.
$55 shipped in lower 48.

you can hit me up here on PM or at taylorva72 at the g mail place

Thanks. Always appreciate the business.

FH rails are sold.

They are. PM sent.

TSPP rails are sold.

I am accepting orders.
Winter is tough for spraying lacquer for me but I can do raw blanks for people to finish themselves or just allow for more lead time for me. Thanks.

In the works. Thanks for the business. - Taylor

added Taxi as a template I have in hand

Just finished some IJ and WH20 rails.image-54.jpg

Thanks for the kind words. Winter can always be tricky on turnaround time with the cold so I appreciate everyone's patience.

Thanks to everyone for the business.

-Taylor

I don't have EM.
I have some MB and CFTBL rails coming in to be redone. I have orders for 10 sets of rails currently so Pretty busy. Best thing to do is to contact me before you start the tear down or directly after sending out a Playfield. I try to be prompt but the finishing is weather dependent.Thanks everyone for the work and for being patient with my schedule.

-Taylor

I created a FB page for my rails.
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Reese-Rails/1547618268848757

Thanks. Yeah, I had no idea but the orders keep coming in. Cant complain.

It is. It still needs a coat or two but very close.

Preston- excellent. Just LMK. I can be reached through Pinside or at [email protected]

Finished Coyotes backboard today. image.jpg image.jpg

I have two sets in the works that can ship end of next week.

1 set AFM
1 set FH

$55 shipped lower 48.

Just LMK. -Taylor

I could but shipping is going to suck.

working on AFM and FH rails today.

FH rails are sold.

AFM rails sold.

I have one set of Wh2O rails ready to ship.

As of now all prior orders have been shipped.

Thanks. Good luck on the AFM, the playfield swap is cake. Cab on the other hand...

sets ready to ship

Wh2O
TAF

$55 shipped lower 48

TAF and Wh20 rails are spoken for.

Sending them to me is the best bet to know that they are truly going to match. I've had issues, especially with TZ, in which the bottom holes that I drill did not match up precisely.

John, will do.

Btw, I have shipped all orders and am waiting on one set of MB rails to show up. I am unavailable the month of June for travel.

That is odd. I have two sets of TZ templates now and will
Compare them. It's always tricky as I'm using used rails out of others games so can't always be certain that a hole wasn't errantly placed at some point.

It seems hit or miss on TZ, but glad to hear that they are correct some times. I do take my time with transferring over all the holes as precisely as I can.

image.jpg ready for lacquer

Top one and two others

It's usually a 2-3 week turnaround. I'm a stay at home dad so I try to knock them out as quick as possible. A lot of the wait depends on weather and drying time before shipping. I don't require payment until rails are ready to ship.

That all said, this is not my job. This is something I try to do for other hobbyist that need the service. I feel it is a lot more about that than just having a product to sell.
It's been fun doing them and I appreciate all the business I have gotten.

Money earned through my rails has supported the Pinball Podcast, POP, Pinside and other pinball related projects.

All orders have shipped. image.jpg

She runs a tight ship and keeps me out in the shop churning these things out.

I think I have some, I'll check and post back.

Replicating some BSD rails today. image.jpg

I have to take a break from making the rails for a little bit. I have some family issues and time restraints that are going to make it very difficult to get them done in a timely manner.

I am working on filling all orders that I have as quickly as possible and those orders should not be delayed.

Thank you to everyone for the business and patience with my service.

- Taylor

Unfortunately I had a set of rails arrive snapped in half. This is why I ship rails priority to include $50 in insurance. Bummed to hear though.

No. I started using cardboard shipping tubes. I've shipped over 50 sets of rails in them though with no issues so someone must have taken batting practice with it.

hurts my soul.

As of tomorrow I'll be taking orders again.

Pinheads, I'm back to taking orders. Took a couple weeks off so I could travel with the family without worrying about who ordered what and creating a backlog. During our vacation I had a chance to play at some great pinball arcades on the east coast including Modern Pinball in NYC, Pinball Wizards Arcade in Pelham, NH and Flippers Arcade in Grandy, NC. Wow, we really are spoiled with locations like these out there.

I want to thank everyone for the business over the last year. I am a pinhead and hobbyist and really do this to provide a service for others that are doing restorations or swaps and need their rails to look as good as the rest of the game. I've been lucky to support my hobby through the service and appreciate all the patience people have shown with the time it takes for me to make and spray the rails.
I always try to get them out the door as quickly as possible but things do come up and delays happen and everyone has been great in understanding that. The summer is tough in the mid-atlantic as it gets pretty humid so drying times with the lacquer are longer than the rest of the year.

I think I have about 5 people that have inquired about new rails while I was on vacation so I will get to them first. You can hit me up through Pinside PM or email me at [email protected]

I also have a FB page at Reese Rails and have been doing some of the One and Done Podcast

I am on instagram at richmondpinball and some of my work can be seen there if you search #reeserails

Thanks everyone for the continued support. I have had several pinheads send me templates just for games that they knew I didn't have and that is greatly appreciated.

- Taylor Reese

Just finished spraying a couple sets of rails and had some extras.

I have a set of Taxi rails available.(sold)
I have a set of IJ rails available.

I can bring these to Pinburgh if prepaid. $50.
Shipped $55.

Thanks. Means a lot.

pm sent.

Taxi are sold.

library is growing. Thanks to everyone that has sent me rails regardless of needing new ones or not.

updated template list in first post 7-28-'15

Sorry about not checking in on this thread for a while. Been crazy busy with rails, the new podcast (This Flippin Podcast with Tommy Skinner) and life in general. I'm still pumping out rails and have 7 sets waiting on paint. I'll hit up this page with some pics and an updated list soon. You can also check out my FB page. Thanks for the continued support and business. Really proud to see my rails in so many games, from HEP to the first time restorer I do my best in giving the best product I can in a timely manner.

- Taylo

I just got in some TOTAN rails and I think I have HS2 but I need to check.

Haven't done Earthshaker.

I'm need to check and see if the rails I have are for a High Speed or High speed 2.

looks like the ones I did were for an original High Speed so I can use yours when they are ready. Thanks. - Taylor

TOTAN and HS2 templates are now in house. Been busy. image.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpeg

I also have an Instagram account if you want to check it out. I post some process pics and they can be found on IG by searching #reeserails

Some custom blue dyed rails for an Evil Knievel Playfield swap I'm doing for a friend.
image.jpeg

BOP rails for templates are on their way.

I don't.

I need to update my list of available titles as it has grown since I first started making these 8 yrs ago with my TAF. A lot of thanks to everyone that has sent me rails to replicate especially Chris Hutchins of HEP who seems to send me new rails and orders multiples whenever I seem to hit a lull and Bryan Kelly that has graciously sent me rails just to have in my library. I think I have about 25 different titles and it just continues to grow.

While I make a little money making these I have always viewed it more as a service for other hobbyist. I do my best to keep it affordable and try to get them turned around as timely as possible.

Thanks again to anyone that has ordered a set of rails.

- Taylor

I have a MM rail and can make you one if interested. Hit me up on PM.

All outstanding orders should ship right after Christmas. Just doing a finishing coat on a AFM backboard.

I will have a couple extra sets available that I just made to use up some material.

I have in stock and will be ready to ship after Xmas-

Twilight Zone
Highspeed 2 the Getaway
AFM backboard- will need to drill own holes for T-nuts and for saucer bracket.

AFM backboard is spoken for

Shipped all rails today. Giving the AFM backboards a couple days more before shipping.

I still have sets for TZ, HS2 and possibly TSPP(waiting to hear if person still wants them) in the tubes ready to ship.

image_(resized).jpeg

I am all caught up!! Woohoo!!

I can usually turn them around in 2-3 weeks from when they arrive. Weather dependent but that is my usual goal. I do not have Congo so they will need to be sent to me. I could replicate from photos but you'd need to predrill fro screws.

Will start on them tomorrow.

Happy New Years and thanks for keeping me busy.

First sets of rails for 2016 are in the works!!

image_(resized).jpeg

All the rails are predrilled top and bottom to match the holes created in the factory.

Pic shows transferring the holes from BOP rails.

image_(resized).jpeg

I'm honestly not sure.

Sent a PM

Sets ready to ship.

AFM(would ship at end of week)
HS2(sold)
TSPP
TZ

3 new AFM backboards entering the world. These things are a total PITA. I route out openings and then give them 3-4 coats lacquer. Then wetsand and add an additional 2-3 coats. Thanks for keeping me busy over the holidays.

image_(resized).jpeg

Thanks man. I appreciate it.

I use red oak and take my time to only use straight stock.
Finding the wood takes time and when I find it I stock up.

I've tried to keep it affordable as a way to make it a no brainer when doing a swap or a restore. I had to raise my prices at one point due to increases in shipping and raw materials going up. I may have to do it again but it does just reflect actual increases to me.

I haven't. Just cost prohibitive and the oak has the same grain as the vinyl wrap that was originally used.

Shipping day.

image_(resized).jpeg

I don't unfortunately. Only modern Sterns are Metpro(assume would work in Metprem/LE and) and TSPP.

I'm making some BOP rails and will have an extra set FS and ready to ship by the end of this week. Hit me up if you are interested.

Shipping day. Going international.
BOP,MM,TOTAN,MB and an AFM backboard are on their way.

image_(resized).jpeg

I have a really small neighborhood post office that is usually empty. I almost never wait more than 5 minutes in line. I tried to set up online shipping and the time it would take to type in all the info for each customer is more than it takes to go to the actual building.

I am backed up on projects due to the cold weather that is sitting on the Mid-atlantic. I have rails ready for finish but my shop is currently too cold to spray and get a proper finish.

Hopefully the cold snap breaks this week and orders will start going out. Very sorry for the delay.

Rails affected by this are;

EK
STNNG x2
MB, CFTBL
Firepower
Mars God of War

I tried to email everyone but Pinside email is down.

If you desperately need to get in touch with me hit me up through my Facebook page please.

I don't. Surprised by that actually.

All outstanding orders have shipped!! Thanks for your patience.
Taking orders.

Thanks!

Holy crap. Had no idea there was so much action on this thread and it was buried so missed a lot of post here. I am still making rails but the summer has been really difficult due to the humidity we experienced in the mid-atlantic.

In lieu of Pinside's sellers fees now applying to everyone I've also avoided posting extra sets rails for sale.
I appreciate Pinside's need to generate money from their site but I have really tried to keep the prices on my rails as low as I possibly can. With shipping and shipping materials there is very little margin on making these and I'd rather not start tacking on more to cover Pinside fees.

Rails are generally $55 shipped but sometimes a little more if they require a special finish or the set of rails contains an extra number of pieces. No set of rails is more than $65 so any uncharge is strictly to cover materials. I will do trades for parts or mods or whatever, really enjoy providing these so happy to work with people that under a budget.

My FB page is at https://www.facebook.com/Reese-Rails-1547618268848757/ and you can contact me at [email protected]

your Taxi rails have been born, now just need to finish. Of course once again the dew point and humidity are through the roof. Should get a good break this week.

Thanks. I've done several EK and now Paragon with the dye.

Screen Shot 2016-09-16 at 9.04.55 PM (resized).png

Yes you are, started on them yesterday.

I do not. They would need to be sent or a drawing down so I can make them.

Thanks for posting and thanks for the business. It was a tough summer for business because of the humidity so it's nice to be getting my rails out in their regular turnaround window and keeping people's projects flowing.

Stoked to be a little part of so many ongoing restorations.

All rails oh order are shipped or waiting for humidity to drop.
Pictures below are 4xStar Gazer, 1xMM, 2x BOP

IMG_0548 (resized).JPG

I really want to apologize for the wait but we've had non stop humid conditions until yesterday. All rails received final coats today so a couple days and they should be ready to ship.

IMG_0770 (resized).JPG

Rails are typically 1/2" X 1 1/8" I've done raw rails for people or painted blanks and then they drill the holes. I try to work with whatever the person needs. If you can measure me lengths I can make them and just send you painted rails.

Added Fish Tales to the inventory of rails that I can replicate.
