Quoted from twinmice:Bump for Rick?
not likely unless there is a license due to the likeness of Arnold on the plastics ...
Quoted from Lysurgeon:A-4013-1 transparent red mini flippers for the bottom playfield on Elektra.

No news is not good news?
Quoted from Photogmkr:I just pick up a Space Station with a broken 1-2-3 Mini-playfield assembly p/n R-11780. I would really appreciate getting one of these!
The Jokerz clear version is a available. I presume the blue one had been made at some point. Maybe you can spray some clear blue underneath:

I guess that's why it didn't show up in a search for Space Station. Were the molds for this piece ever found? I was speaking with Freeplay 40 who suggested I post in here.

Quoted from Mitch:I second this lots of people need this. It's the only part I can't find for my restoration.

Any word on these?

I've talked to a LOT of people who didn't realize that this plastic was even missing from their Demolition Man, let alone had ever seen one....unless you buy it with the complete kit, there is practically nowhere to find these to purchase individually. Getting this little baby out there for individual purchase would be wonderful! Original part number was/is 31-1919-17.
Could use this Black Rose part made, or made again.

Torpedo Alley plastic mountain set.
Whitestar CPU/SOUND board at reasonable costs
Theatre of Magic brass wireforms that don't fade
Theatre of Magic trunks that don't chip/break
All new pins should come with a spare set of plastics and a "maintenance spare" parts kit.
Would you consider remaking the small opto board that controls Bigfoots head on Whitewater? They are nowhere to be found...
Nascar right ramp is just about impossible to get for some reason,
(unless you want to buy ONE at mad amusements for $500...)
Quoted from PPS:We should be able to get the shadow diverters made as well as the ramps ...
Rick,
If you can get us Shadow diverter mechs including the under playfield parts, you will be the hero for so many of us.
If you do rings too you will be making so many people happy.
Thanks for listening to us!

Got one I can use as a pattern?
Quoted from HHaase:Got one I can use as a pattern?
I don't, unfortunately. It is a VERY simple design and I know of someone else that does not have the board on theirs

How about '80s style Bally lamp sockets? I have worked on an EBD and a Kings of Steel, both of which use the plastic sockets with long standoff. Williams never used these in a 555 style, so I'm going to have to substitute the 44 versions in a game that otherwise takes nothing but 555s.
Guys ... we have alot of unobtanium in process - Dr. Dude plastics are being run now ... I check pinside less and less, so you can always email me on [email protected] as well as we will update new parts on twitter (more than we were) as well as on the pps forum for our own stuff ... we are working with a number of suppliers on various things ... but always like the requests and we will try to get done what we can.

Rick- Thanks for the update.
Any news on Diner coffee cup and Black Rose cannon Shell?
Quoted from Ericpinballfan:Fire! Flame insert decals needed.
Saw Jeff at Classic Arcades has the full insert decal sheet for Fire available again. Wonder if we could just talk him into the flames again, don't need full set.

Noticed this pop up and saw that there was a lot of discussion about 3D printed parts and their weaknesses.
1) For metal parts, a PLA print can be used directly in "lost wax" style casting. So, print your part, touch up the surface by hand to get it smooth and then cast it. Lots of information on home metal casting out there. My first casting was in a "furnace" made out of some bricks, a coffee can, a leaf blower, a steel cup and some charcoal. Once I build a gingery style charcoal furnace, I was casting brass, too.
2) For plastic parts, you can print directly, touch it up and then make a silicone rubber mold to make a couple of parts. You can be casting plastic the next day. For something more durable, print up a mold, clean up the inner surfaces and then cast an aluminum version of the mold. Lots of good cold casting epoxies available that would work.
At the bare minimum, you could 3D model it and have it printed out in whatever material you like from places like shapeways. I think it would be cool to see a library of parts built up in something like thingiverse for hard to find replacement pieces.
Quoted from SealClubber:Allied Leisure parts. All mechs were plastic. The games might be more collectible if you could easily get parts for them.
Gameplan drop targets. Most are fragile from age and you have to part out a game to get them. Add in low production runs and these will dry up soon. Only saving grace is you can mod it to work with DE or Gottleib drops.
The allied drop targets couldn't be found, so I am going to reproduce some.
