The tool is with the plastic manufacturer now. We will be checking this week, but they have run the black version already and just color matching the red/orange.
Guys ... the vortex original WMS tool is in the queue to remake (including the jackbot black version as well) ... it is high on the list and as best I can tell there are no obstacles in running it. I am getting the orange color sample to them this week ... it is sitting at the OEM plastic company that had run it previously, just fitting into their schedule and ensuring the metal flap is correct.
UPDATE: I have the sample of the orange ramp as well as the flap print, so waiting on the plastic company to verify the tool ... a question if this does run quickly is if there are any other color options (other than orange and black) that would be a winner? Like a transluscent Orange maybe? lmk
It's the original tool ... there will not be any redesign of the tool ...unless everyone is ok with +$$$ for the cost of the part ...
Pinbot (and Jackbot) Vortex ramps with Flaps are available now ... RED (Pinbot), BLUE (Pinbot or Jackbot), and BLACK (Jackbot). Includes choice of BLUE STEEL or STAINLESS Ramp Flap Installed as well as the Vortex Ramp decals $79. Original WMS tooling, OEM supplier, Stronger Material, Blueprint Cut Flaps.
