My trunks the same its getting smashed to bits even worse now since I did the flipper :D may have to look at tape form bunnings. Another question for ToM owners when the ball spits out of the Trap door 7 out of 10 times it goes straight down the guts! I put a little bit of blu-tak under the lid and it does deviate the ball but it looks dodgy $#$ any one suffer this and has a fix, Sorry mate for the thread hijack ^^^

All good Peter, hope you find a fix. Would bug the hell outta me for sure. need to give a big nudge on the way out by the sounds of it.

Went to buntings and got the tape. Cloth tape. Added some on the inside of the truck, and for double protection put the weather strip on as well. Why not. Will see how it goes.

As for the ball above the newton, loosend the screws underneath and now works great, thanks for the tip Rads ^^^

I've seen you play and you don't seem to mind a nudge. I'm still trying to find my TZ you played, last I heard you nudged it so hard it's somewhere near Footscray  %.%

If the tape doesn't work try using silicone, I used silicone to strengthen the back of a few boulders on Wh20, works a treat and the light can still get through
