Jersey Jack, 2019Quoted from TxJay:Thanks for the video. The mod looks really great!!
One small request though...for the love of god please stop recording in vertical mode.....just record in Horizontal (landscape) mode!!
I agree, wholeheartedly. I usually do but it was a last minute decision to film it.
On that note, you know what else would be great? You learning how to spell the word "would".
Hi guys,
Just wanted to post an update. I've started a list of everyone who has PM'd me, as well as those of you who posted on the thread who want my mod. Right now, I have over 70 orders for the mod which means I will be spending a lot of time in my garage. But I'm happy people like it so much and I'm looking forward to getting them out to all of you.
The cost for both pieces together will be $200.00 + shipping. I'll set up a Paypal account to make it easy for everyone, and will post another update when you can place your order. I've received all supplies necessary and the (pin)ball is rolling. I will start molding the original forms this week, cleaning them up, painting, etc.
I've been spending the last few days troubleshooting the mod to make sure it's as foolproof as I can design it. I changed the form of the smoke slightly to protect her even more from the ball, but honestly, you'd have to do a Shaq free-throw to get it in there. I haven't had issues with it at all, but making so many more required me to be a little more analytical toward the design. I'll be posting my progress in the days to come. Thanks everyone!
Steve
Thanks Steve!
$200 is a very fair price. No complaints.
You should already have me from thread list, I didn't pm you.

Got it, Eric. Thank you!

Production has officially begun. (What have I gotten myself into?--haha)
They're really looking great, though. I added a bit more detail to the smoke, and have gotten pretty proficient at making the same thing over and over...and over.
I think you guys will be very happy.
Steve
Quoted from ToucanF16:How do I place my order?
I've just started molding the pieces, but when I have enough to confidently proceed, I''l set up my PayPal account and we can go from there.
Glad you like it.
Steve
Thank you everyone for all of the nice comments. I really appreciate them.
Here's the progress report. I've made 40 smoke pieces so far, and I'm really happy with the way they're turning out. Unfortunately, I've been having trouble getting a good witch mold to work with. But I made a new one this morning, so hopefully this will be the one. Once I'm happy with that, I'll get the witch molded as well. In terms of timeline, I'm anticipating another week or so before I can think about shipping them out. So for those of you hoping you'll have these before Christmas, I would say that's a really good possibility. Thanks again for your interest.

I didn't make the meme just pulled it from google
Quoted from ToucanF16:Quality is more important than timeliness.
I agree. 
Quoted from MustangPaul:GREAT looking mod.
Thank you!
Just to clarify you are including a new witch with this correct?
Any thought of trying this with "sillyoldelf" new witch to see if it would work with your ring of smoke?

Yes. Both pieces for 200.00. I love his witch but I don't have one to try out. I can assume it won't work, though, because the original witch won't fit in the space. I've configured it to be very specific to the witch I created.
Steve
Quoted from JeremyON:Dude! Just awesome. Can I get one?
Dude! (You're speaking my language. )
Thank you! Of course you can. I'll be posting more info regarding that soon.
Steve
Quoted from gouveia:I am making progress, everyone. Slowly but surely...
Nice pic! One step closer!
So...I hit a minor snag. The new witch mold wasn't making me happy, so I made another one. Unfortunately, now is not the time in San Diego to work with silicone rubber, because it takes FOREVER to cure with the current weather. FOREVER.
Good news is I now have the time to work on these things diligently to make sure I send out a mod that you'll like and that I'm proud of selling to you.
So now we play the waiting game...

Another first I've encountered thanks to joining Pinside... someone that wasn't happy with San Diego weather. 
Quoted from Pinzap:Another first I've encountered thanks to joining Pinside... someone that wasn't happy with San Diego weather.
Touché, Minnesota.
Quoted from gouveia:Getting there. It's very time consuming, but I'm really happy with the way they're turning out.
Steve
Very, very excited!!!
Quoted from MK6PIN:I probably missed it....how does the smoke attach to the base?
You didn't miss it. I forgot to explain that in the video. I use clear double stick tape (the real, heavy duty stuff used to attach GoPro's and things like that). It doesn't budge, and doesn't damage the machine. I'll attach some to the base when I send it out.
Cheers!

Excellent.....looking forward to this " finishing touch" to a beautiful machine...looks like it was meant to be there all along!!!

I think the machine is beautiful too, and so I took a lot of time to make the mod look like it belongs. I'm glad you agree.

It shows!!!.The witch coming up through the red smoke was integral in her entrance, and her new size appears to be scaled perfectly with the trees...very, very nice, and a hand made piece only furthers its elegance in the game...great stuff!!!!
Ps- 0 concerns of ball trap. I've got the well mod, and the ball never even comes close. It's position on the play field doesn't make it prone to air balls ( except in extreme multi ball scenarios). The smoke will get hit occasionally, however, but being made of resin, I anticipate 0 issues there as well . The "well" mod is foam and it's survived, although over time I could see a chunk coming off eventually. You've covered the bases!!!...mark
