Breadfan did start making these awhile ago but I do have to admit, this design looks better to the eye. I think breadfans are made of metal, how will plastic hold up against a metal ball smashing into it?
This looks better because the backside is keyed into the lane guide to keep it from twisting without having to reef down on the screw that holds it.
I'm curious on how the plastic lane guide is holding up, looks like a very solid set up.
Hi everybody
I made two versions of the "Save post", the first that is in early in this topic, the second, is more strong and reinforced with metalic rod (2mm) at the rubber support, this version is installed for about three weeks in my TWD it's played over 100 games without any breaks

I made about 10 sets out of metal,then found a guy with a 3D printer & injection mold. The metal ones are by far the best. These look pretty good but you can't adjust the gap since it's locked into place. No big deal for most,but I found mine to work best turned in just a tad. I've got another idea I'll be trying here shortly. These do look great. Good job yoyokopter.
My goal was to position a "save post" like all Data east or some stern as " Austin power" without piercing the playfield, that's why it is blocked and not adjustable in angle , the rubber is positioned exactly as a data east

I received these 3 days ago an I just now installed them on both left and right outlanes. Took about 5 min to install.
20 bucks including shipping was a very reasonable price.
Thay look great! May have to change my star posts back to the origionals.
Time to play some and see how that hold up.
Quoted from dhard:so now you can only lose the ball sdtm??
Yes, because its now up to par with every other pinball machine on outlane nudging.... Oh I see you don't own a TWD so you know what you are talking about.
Quoted from centerflank:Yes, because its now up to par with every other pinball machine on outlane nudging...
Yes plus when I compair to my spiderman theTWD flippers are 1/8 inch wider apart and spidy has a centerpost. So the flipper area is set up tougher.
TWD is a great game but the outlanes and wider flipper gap make it very tough.

good, it should be hard.
Quoted from dhard:No I don't own but ball went stdm off magnet more than down outlanes on the one I played on route

Quoted from Turboderf:looks great how do I order thanks
I just sent him a pm on these, if shipping is killer to just order one set, I can do a bulk buy a sell to you guys like I did with the clear TRON discs.....what has shipping cost been on these?
I got them $20 shipped to the US.
I played many games with them and thay held up.
I would recommend having them to make the game easier on the brutial drains of TWD to get further on the game and to have a good time playing your game especially for guests or kids that are not hard core players.
I have since removed them and cut a post rubber in half and slid it over each of the outlane guides on both sides.
Thay are a clear superband post rubber so that may be hard to see in the pictures.
I also have the larger star posts on both sides and this seams to be a good setup for me.
Got my save posts a few weeks back. Installation on my LE was a breeze, I just removed 3 or 4 screws from each ramp and was able to move them enough to put the posts in. They fit like a glove! The posts, combined with the new code and custom callouts make the game more fun to play! Thanks yoyokopter!

I bought them a long time ago and they are awesome, I ended up selling my TWD but these outlane extenders made the game enjoyable. I was pretty frustrated with the game which is what it is but my wife did not not like playing it at all.
