I've got to agree, but at least it was good for a laugh. That picture is going to live in infamy.

Says the guy that created this thread... LOL. You came here looking for advice instead of being able to solve the problem you created.

The funny part is that even you haven't realized, and refuse to accept what EVERYONE is telling you. The ONLY way you can fix this is to strip the powder from the plunger portion AND the inside of the housing, restoring them to their original size, or to find some way to PRECISELY AND EVENLY enlarge the hole, and then find a sleeve to fit that (hint: you won't find one, or it will be loose in the hole and then the plunger has too much wobble and strikes the ball at off angles and doesn't work correctly every time).

Like...really...why was the inside of the hole even done? Even your PC guy is a moron (or maybe just a greedy prick), if he was given any kind of appropriate information about the fit and function of these parts, for letting you do this in the first place.

I have NO issue with this...

I repainted my entire Crescendo playfield with UV-reactive highlights and clearcoated it.
I came up with a new mod for Tron when I was on my 2nd one.
I put googley-eyes on my STTNG that had full purple armor, and it sold at TPF.
I'm going to fully convert my WPT into a Voltron custom pin.

Where you've run into problems is that you brought the issue here looking for advice, then chose to completely IGNORE that advice and not even consider the fact that you might be the one in the wrong. This isn't the "mod removers club" thread... I don't think anyone at all gives a hoot that you were trying to do something unique..most of us like that. But the way you went about it without considering the consequence, and then the willful ignorance and stubbornness.....meh. It went from just simply being absurd and funny to bordering on wondering if this entire thing was, and continues to be, a finely engineered troll post.

I'm pretty sure that Pinside had nothing do with with the way he responded after asking for advice. And it's hilarious how nobody EVER says something like that when *I'm* the one getting trashed, and the dogpile is about 5x larger than this.

Violating the 'be nice' rule is frowned upon? Since when. This place has been a shark tank for a long time from what I can see. If you have any opinion outside the majority, you're going to get torn a new one on a semi-frequent basis....but I was used to that from the boards I used prior to this one so....whatever. Guess I have a thick skin...I've definitely been accused of the same thing I'm saying he's doing..being a stubborn mofo, so..

PM incoming. No need to derail thread here.

Nah, but I'd believe that someone didn't specify to their PC place how to do it exactly, and then found it amusing and might have tried to get a rise out of the situation.

And yeah....I really don't know why anyone would have faith in humanity. We are about the dumbest creatures on the planet. #nosarcasmtag

But if you could...

IT'D BE FREAKIN GOLD AS S__T, DAWG!

Well, it's either that or you start doing...uh... alternative things.

*cough*

I did manage to think of one valid reason to try and make all this work, but I think it's still bordering on NVTS... nuts... when you pull back the shooter rod for a skill shot, you'll see a lot more of the shaft...sure it won't be that's noticeable when it's just sitting there, but for something like Totan or BOP where you're having to pull back and really look at the plunger or shooter lane, it'd probably look real cool.
