As some of you know I recently purchased a 3D printer and have a grand plan for this machine outside of pinball (hopefully) but the fun side of it is to make some mods. Open to ideas, keeping in mind I don't want to start with dam hard things to design or paint - want to ease into it.
I will have a !*! Devil Horn !*! hand gesture for the band pins proto'd very soon.

I assume your limited to the size of the printer. What size objects can you print?
-
250 x 150 x 150mm is the area size I have work with

Just sent you an email Jady but how about some AP keyrings and if the plastic is strong enough, make a bottle opener out of them as well. To make it easy, you might even be able to use the previous AP keyring as a template but have some nice 3D lettering.
Also, game specific keyrings.

BIG SHOT type toy for Dr Dude!

What about a shark's head that sits over the shark hole on baywatch? I thought about getting one of those rubber toy sharks cutting the head off and mounting it so you shoot the ball into the sharks mouth.

How about a 3d creature to stick over the 2d version up the back panel of the Playfield ;)
-
And a skeleton inside a coffin for the Metallica pro insert window;)

I will have a !*! Devil Horn !*! hand gesture for the band pins proto'd very soon.
no devil horns hand tonight, old pc having a dummy spit with running 3D drawing - doing a massive cleanup, sorry
-
1st things that come to mind would be custom made pop bumper bodies/caps and posts. What about longer flippers %.%. All the best with your new projects!

Would anyone be interested in a 3D printed timber block with a real timber grain and colour that will slide over the aluminium block of the bell....
I can get this experimental filament that has wood particles in it and when printed it will look like wood grain.
If so would you like a square block or round and the end would show the cross section of the log hiding the screw etc.
Aiming for under $20.

Great idea Jady will look better than a big square block smashing you in the face. Will go good with my AC\DC mod which ill announce shortly
-
Round i think would look much more authentic
-
How about some data east speaker panel hooks?
