only experience with seeing alot of machines and their original ones/translites, gives u an idea.

put it this way, if it looks excellent, it is usually an original, if it looks cheap n crappy, its a copy.
what translite r u looking at ?

Here are photo's & video of TZ I did. Have a look & comment what you see that doesn't look original. Video is on page 2, & I thought it was really nice from players position. The video was done on my Stern CSI for lighting. http://s36.photobucket.com/albums/e28/greatwichjohn/

This technology and the work u r doing is definately needed to keep the pinball restoration market alive.
We need more talented people like yourself reproducing playfields for the world wide market.

Looks excellent.Will keep watching for updates.  ^^^  ^^^  ^^^

I think the work you are doing is great John. I guess the real test is taking it to market and see how it is accepted ?
