Does anyone have a 300 dpi or better scan of the Space Station playfield they would be willing to share? I need to have mine re-printed.

Quoted from RCA1:Station or Shuttle?
If you mean Shuttle, try the Hardtop overlay. If you mean Station, try the Space Station club.
Whoops! I mean Space Shuttle.
I don't want to go with the hardtop, I'd much rather get the playfield reprinted and clear it.
From the pictures hardtop doesn't look as good as a clearcoated pf. I saw a CPR pf and it was gorgeous. I don't know if the play is the same or not, but it seems like it would play different. Maybe I'm wrong.
Quoted from AMBoggs:I do agree that a properly clearcoated cpr playfield looks great, but I’m not sure you could achieve that same look from printing a vinyl overlay and clearing it.
I’ve got the hard top and it plays fine and consistent. But I’ve also haven’t seen a a side by side comparison with an installed CPR pin or played on a CPR playfield.
Sorry I should have been more clear. I want to do a UV inkjet print directly to the playfield, not print a vinyl sticker. I agree the hard top is superior to vinyl.
If someone has a restored space shuttle playfield or (gasp) a CPR they'd be willing to sell, I'll pay a fair price for it.

Quoted from Matrices13:Yeah, they’re stuck on the underside of the play field, and both are stuck. They also both went at the same time and there was a burning odor, from what I was told. The machine still fires up, but they won’t come down again - and nothing up top is obstructing them, unfortunately.
Both coils may have melted enough to seize the flipper plungers, but that seems to point to a problem upstream. You need to make sure you haven't blown transistors (or worse) before you hook those new coils back up and put the power back on.
Also the bridge board fixes a different issue. So you should still add the new bridge board.

Quoted from JLebowski:I spoke with the Starship Fantasy owner at Expo two months ago, he indicated maybe another run of the ramps in a few months, he said to email him about it, but I haven't heard from him yet.
I have bought from Starship Fantasy several times and like their product, but he’s been saying ‘a few weeks’ or ‘a few months’ about SS ramps for YEARS now.

Quoted from polyacanthus:I am also reproducing these ramps.
I don't have any machinery or expertise so production is still a little ways out yet but I'll totally let you know.
Hey that’s great news! I just read that starship-fantasy doesn’t seem inclined to make Space Shuttle ramps, he just posted “it’ll be the last one I make” - I take that to mean it’s the lowest priority on his list..
