Title: Plastic guide runners for playfield glass
Post by: mark jackson on August 14, 2014, 12:45:51 PM

I'm looking for two plastic guides (runners) which enable the playfield glass to slide in and out smoothly. They are about 1m 10 cm in length (approx).  These plastic runners are found on most gottlieb wedgeheads from the 60s and 70s. ....any colour will be fine, and from any machine will also be fine. Thanks, Mark

Have a read of this thread I started along time ago. You may have to take the 'Make it Yourself ' option.

Thanks guys. In the past I've done both things: I've used plastic runners from parted out machines, and I've made my own. ... I'd rather use ones from a machine if I can find 'em. If not, I'll make em up myself. Mark
