If this new trunk is truly unbreakable you will sell a lot of these. Previous trunks, while more durable than the originals, have always broken for me over time.
Thanks for doing this project.

Added over 7 years ago: I will definitely buy one when they are ready for sale.
Quoted from georgio:Trunk after 200 games 5 ball settings, average score 1.000.000.000 No cleaning on trunk done. Just as it is after 200 games.
It looks very nice and is holding up well. After this many plays the standard trunk would have already developed cracks along the bottom gold part and pieces would have fallen off.
When these are ready for sale you will be very busy filling orders.
Gord
Quoted from georgio:We will first focus on the gold and silver ones, because the base material is black so we can do this run first. After that we choose another color, red or blue.
Everyone who wants a gold/ silver one and a color one will be contacted with the question if they want the silver or gold first or want to wait a couple of months when the colored ones are ready to save on shipping costs.
Combo price discount will stay valid and will be discounted in the next order when you want the black one first.
I will take two of the original color (gold and black) trunks.
Gord
Quoted from georgio:Thank you for the orders and nice replies and comments in the order mails. Everyone is so enthusiast. Very busy day for me
Payment sent a few hours ago. Thanks for making these. It will be so nice to have a TOM trunk that I don't have to glue broken pieces on after 50 or so plays.
Gord
Quoted from GorillaBiscuits:Got mine! Looks great. Will slap this guy on tonight cheers.
That does look amazing. It will be so nice to have a nice looking trunk that doesn't begin to fall apart after 50-100 or so plays.

I ordered a couple of Everlasting TOM magic trunks on 09/15/2017 and received them this afternoon (09/21/2017) via Fedex. Below are some photos of the new trunk before and after installation.
I have also played a handful of games on my TOM with the new Everlasting TOM trunk installed and it plays just like it played with the original stock trunk which is perfect. The quality of the new trunk is very professional and it looks like it will last much, much longer than the old trunk which was much more brittle.
As the OP stated in a prior posting, the Everlasting TOM trunk is significantly more malleable than the original stock trunk. It is not rubbery like flipper rubbers, although it has enough flex to prevent it from cracking which is the main problem with the original stock trunks.

Quoted from rennervision:That is pretty much word-for-word a conversation the delivery man once had with my daughter when I wasn't home and a package arrived from Canada!
When Fedex delivered my TOM trunk it did require a signature, but no shakedown was forthcoming.

1 november we are hired for 6 months supporting a new movie pruduction outside our country.
Thanks for making these very durable TOM trunks. I ordered a pair of them back in September of 2017 and installed one at that time and it still looks brand new. It is a HUGE improvement over all the other TOM trunks that are available.
Gord
Quoted from Andrew60:Can someone please give me the link to buy this trunk. I'm tired of buying new ones and removing broken trunk pieces from my machine. Thanks
Send a PM to the OP and he will add you to the list. That is how I ordered mine a few years ago.
Gord
Quoted from georgio:The best way is to mail directly to [email protected]
Gord, how is your trunk doing now? Still in good shape?
My unbreakable trunk has been installed since September of 2017 and it still looks brand new. I used to replace these trunks about once a year and now I don't ever have to replace it. It is well worth the money.
Gord
Quoted from d0n:Looks like you can't buy them anymore.
Has anyone mentioned how much these did cost? I don't see a mention of price in all these pages.
In September of 2017 I purchased two unbreakable trunks from georgio for 140 EUR + 24 EUR for shipping and 5 EUR for a PayPal fee for a total of 169 EUR ($185 USD). I have had the unbreakable trunk installed in my TOM for 4.5 years and it still looks perfect.
Prior to installing the unbreakable trunk I was replacing the trunk once or twice a year. It is well worth the cost and it looks great.
