Hey gang! I just picked up a couple of new tools to help create some more mods and repro's -- a 3D Printer and a vac former!!
If there's any vac formed parts you feel need to be repro'd, please let me know. I was going to start with Space Shuttle and Space Station but it seems those parts are already being done elsewhere.

Quoted from Phatchit:Comet spiral ramp seems like one . I'm currently shopping out a Comet and I can't find a new replacement ramp anywhere
ahem...

Batman Forever Ramps if you could justify getting the material in green. No longer own one, but they are always cracked.
Data East Star Wars Death Star would be a nice to have addition as well.
Stupid Rebel Alliance keeps blowing it up.
Quoted from pinball_customs:If there's any vac formed parts
how BIG of ramps can you do?
Can you create moulds from electronic files?
Quoted from ChrisS:Bad Cats ramps please.
I heard a rumor that they are being tested as we speak. Hopefully soon.
Wow! Lots of interest here which is awesome! Unfortunately gang, this is sort of a "starter" vac former. It has a surface area of 8 x 10. So most ramps are out of the question for now. The "G" ramp for GnR should fit though, I'll look into it.
Thanks for all the suggestions so far!
gonna need something MUCH bigger if you really want to get into ramps. Call up freeplay and pick his brain. Nice guy and seems to have it down. I know he still wants something bigger.
I woudl suggest WWFRR as a great starter ramp. Should be small enough and not too difficult???

The CFTBL backbox piece would fit into that. The original is made of a really brittle plastic which perishes with time and heat. I cannot think of a CFTBL who would not order this piece just to have one (or more) for when their drops to pieces, demand should be very high.
Quoted from thewool:The piece of plastic (top left) in Creature for the Black Lagoon's backbox which divides the lights on 'Creature' would be a great one as they are like rocking horse shit.

Agreed. I'm currently restoring a Creature and this piece gets extremely brittle over the years from the heat of the lamps. Same type divider with solid walls would be great.
