My shooter lane wireform is busted, and finding a replacement is turning out to be pretty difficult.

Are there options for repairing the one I've got? As is, I'm missing two rings, one longer length of wireform that braces the top, the part that secures it to the spinout ramp entrance, and the two brackets for the limo plastic.

Doesn't have to be perfect, just has to work!

I have some of these pieces I'm sure from my restore, I replaced my wireform because one of the two screws that go through the bottom of the playfield busted off. If you are willing to weld a new screw I could send you my old wireform. Send me a PM. No charge just pay for shipping / pay it forward

Awesome, I have a friend that could help with that weld! Thanks!

Remember, if you go to a welding shop, you want it TIG welded - ask for it by name.

Can a wireform be soldered or epoxied together?
