Can anyone post a pic of what is supposed to be attached to the random post shown in the pic please? (The one above teh middle of the flipper) I think there should be some kind of deflector plastic as the ball has got trapped under the wireform a couple of times.Tommy missing plastic.jpge of times.
 
That's brilliant Ive, just what I was looking for, don't s'pose you know where I could get some do you? Also, how do you join the owners club on pinside? Oh and another thing, do you know how we can add Flip Out to the places where you can play the various machines? I'm sure Flip Out founders could be encouraged to make a substantial donation for the publicity!

Flip out is on pinside and pinball map the two main sites for finding pinballs.

I think @Colywobbles could make that plastic for you?

Well if you want to treat yourself ....Marco have complete set which looks like it includes all the clear plastics.

Otherwise it's a case of used ones popping up on Ebay etc.
Or make your own - its a simple one.

It's just an open thread - anyone can view or comment.
 
Alternatively, would any Tommy owner be kind enough to send me a scan of the piece so I can get it copied? I've found one on ebay, trouble is it comes in a complete set and then you have postage on top! Overall would come out at £150 and I still won't have the bracket to fix it to the machine (Anyone know where to get them?)

Hi Neil, Do you know how to edit things show my games are shown as playable (Well most of the time) at Flip Out?
 
Just wondering, is there any software that can take a scanned image and scale things up if it is given a dimension? I have a photo of a complete plastic set for Tommy. I also have easy to access plastics on the machine that I can take actual dimensions from. It strikes me that if I give the system one or two actual dimensions it should be able to calculate the dimensions of all of the others., or am I overthinking this?
