Likewise.. they just don't do reproductions of this plastic. Might be worth just finding somewhere that will print a sticker to stick over a new cut plastic?
I posted a new blank hand plastic to rob today.
expecting a full report when it arrives (and hopefully fits!)

If it's okay and fits, would it be possible to get the hand plastics made for myself?
You might be onto something here ☺
Yea of course!
Brilliant! Your getaway ones were very good!
I've ordered the vinyl to print it on, i'll post the pics when its done, working away from home for a bit though so might be a bit of delay

Not a problem. Should turn out alot better than the broken yellow ones
Dave thanks very much for the plastic it arrived this morning the quality is amazing its a perfect fit and cut to perfection, i could never have achieved anything like that with a saw, i printed the decal onto the transparent media that was linked in the original thread but it looks washed out and doesn't dry out completely so its a pain to handle. The plastic is better than i could have hoped for thanks very much how much do i owe you mate?
but my printing has let it down :-( i need to explore further options

Should have said that the photos look better against the white background but under the lights of the table look washed out

Do you need a scan of the plastic on the other side to reproduce it Dave?

Not if anyone can confirm there mirrored?
I have my machine now so will check
no mine are slightly different and flipping the image didn't fit so i rebuilt the damaged part with a photo app (not a good app) if you look closely you can probable see where but not really noticeable at normal distance. The real problem is getting the vibrant colours printed not a problem until you do it on a transparency
Hi @Cryptkeeper I'm also looking for a left hand I have the scans for both hands in jpeg and tiff, the tiff files are very large. My left hand is broken so the scan is not of the complete hand.
Can anyone help with a scan of the complete plastic for the left hand. If anyone can @Cryptkeeper I would be eternally grateful if you could produce a plastic, I'm perfectly happy to pay accordingly, there's nothing worse than a one handed T2!!!
This is the last piece of the jigsaw on the full restoration of this machine.

Yea no problem.
I sent out a pair to Darren on Friday.
Once he does a test fit I'll make another set.
Still have to figure out the art bit.
