Quoted from centerflank:

5) I highly recommend some sort of adhesive spray when you install the new clear pad,

This is brilliant, thank you.

Can you recall which particular type of adhesive spray you recommend?

cflank does it make the ball go a little crazier, mines not really shooting out all that fast. If so put me down for one, cheers

No! It makes it go a LOT crazier.

#3855 8 years ago

I'll take a clear disc.

#3856 8 years ago

Anybody have video of the clear or blue working with the lighting?

#3858 8 years ago
Quoted from centerflank:

Any other requests for their transparent rubber rings?

So I would go with 2 of the Clear discs and a set of the transparent rubber rings. Not sure how many there are but would definitely be in for a complete set for Tron.

Thanks Centerflank!

Regards
Ed

Looks like I might have to bust out my clear one....

Quoted from eharan:

I put my order in already so I cant order the ring bucket, I do have a good amount of spares so I could sell you those if you give me the sizes you want.

I went to the post office today and the TRON disc packages were too small??? WTF? She wouldn't take them, I sent Quartergrabber one a few weeks ago and it was pretty much the same size, weird. I wasn't going to argue with her, Ill just tape them to a 3.5x5 chip board and take them in tomorrow and see if that is suffice.

Sorry for the slight shipping delay!

#3861 8 years ago

I'll take a couple clear discs if available CF. Thanks.

Quoted from centerflank:

No worries. If it causes your shipping to be more expensive, be sure to let us know, and I'll gladly send you the difference. I looked at the PinballCenter page today, and it would be 10 Euro shipping to get them direct, so I really appreciate you taking the time to manage bulk orders for us.

#3863 8 years ago
Quoted from PaulCoff:

Thanks a TrON!

ohhhh duuuude. that is, that is, just..... I can't even.... LOL

Ah, no worries, Ill cover it, not a big deal.

#3865 8 years ago

I think all 15 disc pads are spoken for, man, its like selling crack!

Yes, it comes out all drunk like a sailor on shore leave, spins around goes this way then that way. Its a trip man.

Ive seen it fly out bounce of a post go up the Quorra lane, just the other night I had one fly up the right ramp.

You will not regret putting it in.

#3867 8 years ago

Again... Shall we say Glory Hole?!?

#3871 8 years ago

yes I love it more than Lamp

#3872 8 years ago

Question...

Blue disc, same white knuckling grip as the clear ones? Someone asked me and I don't have a definitive answer.

I would think they do, made of same material?

Thanks!

#3873 8 years ago

Also, this is the list I have for the next shipment I have coming to me, let me know if there are any errors associated with it. C=clear, B=blue. The number before said C/B indicates quantity LOL!

Crap, thats 12 clear discs and I only ordered 10 but I have a spare in my TRON coin box, any 2C orders mind dropping down to one pad to even this order out? Ill do one more bulk order and get you back the 2nd one you wanted for no ship charge. Anyone?

Ya'll are nuts. I really need to see if I can find the one I ordered. I can't remember which one I had. I have doc appt here in a few hours to follow up on my knee but I'll try and find it if I can. I'm sure it's made out of the same type of rubber as the clear one.

I really wish someone would make a white one from that type of material.

#3875 8 years ago
Quoted from Chosen_S:

I don't think whoever put that together has ever seen Anchorman or they would have left out the 'a'. LOL

The real question is instead of ugly black marks all over your playfield will you now have ugly blue marks all over your playfield with the blue disc?

#3877 8 years ago

thanks again for doing this bro. way cool man.

Excellent, Thank you! Ill have a replacement in the very near future for that.

#3880 8 years ago

Someday I will own Tron again! Maybe I can get in on the next order

#3881 8 years ago
Quoted from Concretehardt:

Maybe I can get in on the next order

Maybe.....

I ordered 20C and 10B today plus a few 120piece clear rubber buckets, shoot me a PM if anyone wants in on these. I won't be making any more orders for awhile.

Thanks!

All 10 discs were successfully mailed out today, please share your thoughts after you get them installed!

#3882 8 years ago

Certainly the blue disc won't break down and cause blue streaks ??

Super excited for the more exhilarating game speed !

What is a clear rubber bucket? Sounds intriguing I can tell you what I think it is but under the new "family friendly" pinside rules, I can't

#3884 8 years ago
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:

What is a clear rubber bucket?

I thought you retired from Pinside?

Here is the ring breakdown for the bucket.

Hahahahaha, I tried but its like crack to me. Now I just really post in this thread or if I need help. You still cant beat pinside for help on pins.

Hmmmmm, What will you be selling these for?

#3887 8 years ago

I've never tried the pinballcenter.eu transparent rubbers, but I do have Titan transparent rubbers on my Tron, and they work fantastic. I haven't had one ball lodged under the slings yet with them installed.

#3888 8 years ago
Quoted from QuarterGrabber:

They should be ~$50'ish~ but shipping might take it a little over that.

Thought you retired? That lasted a while 3 days!! Lol!

Are these all the machines you are going to get rid of to get a Tron?

Curious if this is the first time that game the starts with W, round in the middle and ends with Z has been typed in this thread? Was a good run.......

Thankfully he didn't include a pic of the pin that shall remain nameless. Bad enough that he had a pic of that rasslin pin in your Tron thread.

#3895 8 years ago

Ok, ramp question... (Yup, I'm drilling!). Which one of these is right to hide them better?

Outside:

Quoted from DaveH:

I can't remember what I did, but I can't honestly see much difference. Once you clip it you've got a lump either way. Remember even the LE does it, just go for it and don't sweat it.

I probably did outside just because it's easier to pull them tight and clip that way.

Wow, make that three! Thanks!
