Posted: Wed Jul 19, 2006 8:25 am Post subject: Orange Florescent Tube Rings are Coming! |
|
|
Hello BBB group…as you know, I have posted on the “Clear Orange Florescent Tube Rings” with tons in interest with nearly 500 views.
Well, they are being made in large quantities, by a well known RGP’er “Cliffy” Mr. Ramp & Kick out hole protector.
I met with Cliffy and another Pinhead who is great at fabricating ad-ons & protection items for our beloved pins at CA Extreme, in California, 2 weeks ago. As I mentioned, we had an opportunity to look inside and under the hood of John Cassidy’s BBB. They took many detailed measurements & photos.
Cliffy emailed me today to let our BBB Group know in his words;
“I have come up with a way to attach them without affecting the tube at all and that a complete set will be ready for test fitting in a couple weeks at most”
I will keep you posted on the progress.

BTW: I have read many posts re: the stenciling on the backbox. I would like to think I’m fairly talented (pins & vids complete side art decaling w/ spray / touch-up painting). But, I would be very nervous experimenting on my BBB w/ a one-pass silk screen borrowed from many other users. |

Kerry,
This is great news! Thank you for keeping the flame alive.
I agree with you on the stenciling. After all I have been through, it would be a crime to flub up the back of my cabinet. I would be willing to have it done professionally at the factory for an additional fee.

Good point, Al. Any chance we can get PMI to run some more tubes so we don't have to hack the stock one?

I'd like to jump on the bandwagon also for a couple of ring sets
A spare tube would be great too.
