Sneak preview...the cover will have stainless brackets riveted on since the original formed ones all break quickly. 85 holes on the main ramp...71 of them are CNC cut...thats a first for me. Note, if you zoom in...there is a web in the right exit. That won't be there on the finished version, I just used that one to test the CNC cutting.

Sorry, just the subway at this time. Maybe one day though!

I've been quiet here lately as I have been just keeping up with orders and building some stock for Allentown Pinfest/my summer break. I will be announcing a new set of ramps at Pinfest...a set that many have asked for. Stay tuned!

Funny you were asking that as I was finishing a small batch

I am looking at running Frankenstein with the new ramp I announced at Pinfest, which is.....

TRON Pro/LE- Both ramps

But I plan on not doing anything at all in May/June, so I am telling people this fall just to be safe. I also have to get the Hot Shots ramps finished sometime in there as well.

I picked up a Hook at the show, so those ramps are now in play. Also note that Freeplay40 already offers the Rufio ramp, so I am concentrating on the skill shot and whirlpool ramp. If someone has a Monday Night Football skill shot ramp, I would like to borrow one sometime to compare to the Hook skill shot ramp. The Rufio ramp is cut down from a MNF ramp, and I am curious what the differences may be between the skill shot ramps.

Hi all, I am currently in Vacation mode...all I am confirming at the moment is Tron, Hot Shots and the smaller of the two Frankenstein ramps for now. I probably will not start on any of those projects until late June at the earliest. I do have some other projects in line after those, but I am not confirming anything on those at this time, as their timing is subject to change.

Still "on vacation" here but I have been working on new molds in the meantime when we get the occasional hot days. We have actually had a mild summer here so far, which has not happened in ages it seems. Here are some important updates:

Tron/Hot Shots:
I purposely have not started product pages on my site for the Tron ramps yet because I think the initial interest list will be too large for me to fulfill right away. So I am going to make as many as I have plastic for and get them listed and sold as a first come first serve on the web site, and then will run more batches successively until demand is satisfied. I will most likely be running Hot Shots with this concurrently as long as my special Hot Shots mold works like I hope it does. As you know, the turn after the accelerator on the one HS ramp is concave and appears to have used a 2-piece mold from the factory, so I am recreating that on my mold.

That being said....I am going to be on the Tron ramps for the foreseeable future and will be pivoting into Hook/Frankenstein from there. If I have a ramp in stock that you need, you should probably not wait to pick it up until later, as it will be a while before I run any new batches of other ramps. I am currently running a Summer Solstice sale on all in stock ramp orders of $125 or more from today through Sunday (6/26/22). The discount is automatically applied in your cart at www.rampomatic.com

Frankenstein:
A note on Frankenstein. Right now I am just doing the smaller of the two ramps with the vertical slots in the sidewalls. My sample ramp is NOS, so I have a really good master to go from. However, there is a secondary machined part to this ramp in the trough that is a bit of a head scratcher and I will need to consult the Frankenstein thread to see exactly what the deal is there, what mounts there and come up with a plan to recreate this properly. Not a show stopper, but it adds an unusual challenge that needs to be worked out.

Hook
Hook is coming...I have the molds partially built and will finish them as time and material on hand permit. I am doing the skill shot and whirlpool ramp only. A beautiful Rufio ramp is already available from Freeplay40. I *think* the skillshot ramp for Hook will be able to be cut down for Monday Night Football as well, but the main MNF ramp is most likely not ever going to happen unfortunately. Those molds would have to be aluminum due to the ridiculously tight folds where there would usually be a lip. I cannot subtract these folds in some places because they are used to mount the ramp on the left side and a flasher on the right.

Ripley's
I picked up a nice copy of this game at Allentown and plan to keep it a while because it is one of my personal favorites. I will eventually redo both ramps with a clear option because I think that may make the game possibly look even better. The right ramp is still available NOS from Marco, but the left ramp is not out there anywhere as far as I know. This is a future passion project more than anything, but if you happen to be looking for RBION ramps, feel free to drop me a line and it may help bump the timeline up a bit.

Probably not until fall/winter at the soonest right now.

No plans at this time, but who know what the future holds.

The subway would have to be two pieces because it is very long. I can look into it once I am caught up again.

Shipping to Australia is no problem, it's just costs a lot. I do sell to Ride the Bony Beast down there as well, which could also be cheaper for you depending on location.

The very first batch will only be a handful of sets which will be sold in the US only only because I always do that in order to get quick feedback on the initial run. The next batch will be shortly thereafter and will continue until demand is satisfied. Everyone who wants a set will be able to get a set in a timely manner. I have been in contact with Nino, and we are setting up an order for when I have some ready to ship for him. If anyone else would like to order with Nino, let him know so he can adjust his quantity accordingly.

I do not have any plans for doing that one any time soon, but there is enough interest to give it a look in 2023. I would probably have to split the ramp somewhere though to fit my machine.

First test pulls and cuts for the new Tron ramp tooling! These are still a couple weeks away due to the stainless flaps still being made, but things are looking good. The right exit has a minor web showing in the photo which will not be present on the production pieces. Even if the first pull has a web somewhere, I still use the piece to set up other fixtures and jigs later in the process.

Note: I am not keeping an interest list on these, but will be making plenty to satisfy all demand. No need to message me about being put on the list, they will be well advertised when they are available to order on my site. I do not accept pre-orders. If you can add the item to your cart and buy it on my site, that means it's in stock and will ship in 1-2 business days. Thanks!

Unfortunately I will probably not ever be able to do that MNF ramp. The lip is so narrow that the mold material I use would most likely not hold up.

Here is a preview of the 3 Hot Shots ramps. I was finally able to crack the code on being able to form the overhang on the accelerator ramp...Definitely a very unique process. I have to make a couple mold tweaks on the accelerator entrance and then I'll have a couple pieces ready to go out for some early release customers this week. The stainless flaps have all arrived as of today, so we are ready to roll.

Tron is on the line! First group will probably be Pro ramps, but you can drill your own holes for zip ties in the Pro ramps quite easily if you are antsy to get them now to use them on the Premium/LE. No need to PM me to ask about buying a set, I'll post a link here for purchase when they are ready to ship. Still waiting on flaps to arrive before these can be finished.
