anyone seen or have one of these?

there is one for sale, but wants $500 at least. Cannot see it being worth that much, and may be annoying

Mine has been sitting inside the cab for 6 months. Always snapped at the worst time. Was one of the silver ones, so sisnt look as good as the more recent white ones

Can I get an expression of interest from those who would like a spiral ramp? I have a source that could make them for us, just wanted to know how many would like one. Not sure of the price, but I'm not in it to make money.

When I get the quote for the build, I'll start a new thread. I'm hoping the costs would be considerably less than the eBay recent offers. TZ isn't a very fast game, so I don't think the spiral would be an issue, but I'll let this group know.

with all that dust, just a quick blow-job and it'll be a happy camper. Maybe use a couple of rubbers too.

See previous, making these again, but GLWS

Ouch. Sorry. I thought Bally/Williams were out of business, and this mod was a post-production thing. I think you'll have no trouble selling the spiral ramp - they seem to come up on ebay regularly as "one-offs" from a friends machine and fetch a good price. I'm just getting a friend to knock one off for my machine as I can't seem to get the rare ebay ones, and postage over here is a killer.
There are a number of mods around that get copied rightly or wrongly. So long as it's not a commercial venture being sold in quantity as retail, I assume it's acceptable. If a few are made for forum members only, it's more a friendly gesture. Again, my apologies if it causes stress.

I've pretty much filled up the top now.
I love the fact my "balls" are edible in the gumball machine - cola flavoured.

Is everyone watching development of this? I've always wanted someone to do this - nutrition and pinball in the one place!

anyone getting the gumball mod? not cheap, but looks well made - I'm going to grab ver 3 for the Dollar Bill Acceptor slot. My kids will be bugging me to play the game even more than I do now!

Doing some cleaning. I wonder if this happened during manufacture, or if someone use a bit too much persuasion?

thanks Neurok. Always good to hear about problems and their fixed. Poor confused TZ, amazing how well it coped with it's gummed up kicker - not sure I'd be that comfortable if mine was gummed up.

Had my TZ for 9 years, never had a clock error - so not a normal thing. I did however change my clock board out to the new version a few years ago just for reliability. They are relatively inexpensive, so you can always try that. Grab the game if you can, you won't regret it.

Check the switch at the start of the shooter lane is registering that the ball is there. If the coils work, it means they aren't getting the signal to fire the ball. Just put a ball there in switch test mode and see.

all tie-ins explained, but gumball is just a bit of fun.

Pinsound.org is the best solution for improving the sound. A couple of great new sound mixes are availale on the community forum as well a an upgraded stereo original. Makes a hugh difference even with stock speakers.
