Tx Sector owners, can someone tell me for sure if this big ramp is warped, or are they all bent like this? I have some warp in the bottom of the ball through, so I am thinking this flat section the lights mount to will need to be flattened out as well before I make a mold.

That plastic in particular is a bit think and over time it will sag
Okay, thank you. I've got my work cut out for me!
Quoted from Whysnow:look awesome!
when/where can we get the next round?
Hey Hilton, I am tuning in the molds this week and should be ready to run them on demand going forward. I will be able to offer them in different colors as well. Jim is going to try a set of purple ones, and I was thinking smoked black would look good also. And of course, I'll have the original red available. Pricing will be $125 a set. They are also available individually should someone only need one.
I am ready to run some, but I'm having trouble getting colors at the moment with some things being shut down. I'll be sure to post up a color spread when I receive them.
Quoted from Whysnow:looking good!
Excited for the dark blue!
Hard to tell in pics or if just cause test run... are there bubbles in there?
Good eye! No bubbles...just weird reflections off the micro texture in the plastic. I probably shouldn't use the flash for these. I've had bubbles before, and it's usually a sign of being too hot. Those ones get rejected if it ever happens.

Would be awesome to see with normal lighting behind them.
Still thinking the dark blue (like on PF) will be awesome looking!
I'd like to get pictures of each...but I need to find someone willing to put them in with standard white GI to get an accurate image.
Quoted from koen12344:duffysarcade Its getting stuck behind the entry flap on the ramp itself.. With the crooked shots I make because of the weak flippers, it enters the ramp too slowly and gets stuck there sometimes.
Looks like you need to tweak the flap down a little bit with a slight bend to make it match the contour of the ramp. You can also shave the front edge of the ramp trough lip down a bit to make it sit a little closer to the playfield.
