I'm in for sure (as noted in the space station thread). Transparent red is what I'll be wanting. How would the assembly service work, and what do you think the cost would be? Would we be shipping our ramps to you and using existing parts or would it be new parts? As for the wiring, individually braided cables look really nice, even just when zip tied in place. I use them all the time in my liquid cooled computers.

Quoted from Freeplay40:

I did the assembly for High Speed for $20 with folks sending me the necessary parts from their playfield. Might be $25 for this one but certainly no higher. Some guys did want to send me the whole ramp to disassemble which I gladly did, but I charged an additional $5 if they wanted the original shipped back.

I think that will work out good for me. If I thought I was going to have more future use for it, I would probably build my own rig for doing rivets, but I think it will probably be just this one SYS11 game for me for quite a while so the value in my own tool isn't really there.

Quoted from Freeplay40:

For you non domestic US guys, if you want me to do the assembly, would probably be best when the time comes to just ship me the necessary parts (I will detail them at some point) and then avoid shipping the old ramp back...just to save postage each way. I expect when I'm ready I will be able to turn these back in just a day or two....Usually just one day, but there is always the initial rush.

Yep that should be fine. As long as the ramps are solid and hold up, I will have no reason to go back to that ugly black abs ramp

Quoted from toasterman04:

why don't you find it a blue game?? there is a lot of blue throughout the playfield and translate, not to mention the complete cabinet. I really don't like red as a color, (personal preference) and cannot see clear working out with all the things attached so I will probably be going blue. I think it will look good

You know, I can't for the life of me REALLY decide why I feel it's a red game, but it is to me. I agree, blue all over this game, but It has always just struck me that it's a red game. Maybe it's the logo on the backglass being in red? Either way, any time I have had to replace something that is worn (or just because I wanted to), I have replaced with transparent red (such as flippers, flipper buttons, etc).

Very cool! I've never seen something like that in operation, so I would also be interested in a video of it if you ever get around to it

Keep up the good work, though, I'm really looking forward to the SOF ramps

I don't want no paint on mine, completely ruins the transparent effect. I just want a dark, bloody, transparent red!

Just to save on the hassle of shipping back and forth, I'm considering doing the rivets myself. I've never done rivets before and have none of the tools to do so (AFAIK, anyways). Does anyone have a list of what I would need and a rough guide on how to do it if that's how I decide to go about this?

Yeah, that's a quality job! Nice work. I think you're right, Williams would have definitely done something like that (why the top right side of the original black ramp never had the cobblestone decals/plastics is beyond me, I always felt that area looked bland because of that).
