Pinball Rails - Reproduction Rails - for sale

Item description

Thank you for your interest in a set of new reproduction side rails! Please read the information below:

The Rails: The rails are made of white oak which is a durable and strong hardwood. They are replicated by using a donor set of existing rails for the title of game you are ordering. Each set is unique, all with different lengths, relief cuts, and other features like scallops and through-holes. They are finished with at least three coats of gloss lacquer for protection. They should last the life of the game! The ‘back’ rail on all EM(if applicable), SS and most Alphanumeric games are included as a ‘rail’.

If the rails are not on the updated list I will need your set sent to me. Once I email you back that is your confirmation that you are on the list for a set of rails. This email may also include my address if I need your set - please let me know if you need the original set of rails back. When Im ready to make your set, an email will be sent to let you know they are being produced.

Backboards: At this time I can reproduce the more basic backboards for the pre-WPC and WPC era of game. Like the rails, if it's not on the list above you can send me yours and I can see if it's something I can reproduce. Reconditioning your existing backboard can be done too. The backboard will be sanded and finished exactly like the rails with any gouges or chips filled in flush with the wood surface. It should like like new when done with all the holes predrilled and mounting locations dimpled.

Production:
I do have a full time career and a family. This is something I do on the side for fun and is a way to express my creativity as well as help support this hobby we all know and love. The longest part of production is the finish. Applying several coats of finish and letting it cure takes time. Black dye takes three coats, other lighter dyes take up to 5 coats. If paint is requested, the final color is sealed with three coats of clear lacquer. I will always do my best to communicate the production of your rails if things seem to be going to take longer than expected. Please keep this in mind in your pin-project planning!

Pricing:
Each set posted has pricing attached. The pricing reflects the amount of material used to produce your rails. Some sets of rails use up to 6 individual pieces. Once the rails are finished, I will send an email requesting payment. I source the white oak from local hardwood suppliers here in Florida and rip/cut the stock myself. Prices for hardwood do fluctuate so rail-pricing could reflect these changes in the market over the course of time. The latest will always be posted in this AD.

Shipping:
The rails are shipped in a long tube and they are considered a ‘irregular’ package by the UPS and USPS. The average cost is anywhere between $18 to $25 for a single tube, possibly more if you ordered two sets of rails in two tubes taped together. I will always try to find the most economical shipping method. Once your rails are finished and ready to be shipped I will notify you of the shipping cost. I am not shipping Internationally at this time.

** I have stopped offering pre-drilled holes on the under-side of the rails. There is too much room for error since every game is different and lining the holes up is not always possible. Each set of rails has an instruction sheet explaining that the rail must be clamped to the playfield and a pilot hole drilled prior to driving a screw in to the wood. Ignoring this step will almost always end with a split or broken rail**
