Flash Gordon Lane Guide
« on: February 08, 2013, 11:44:05 AM »
Hi,

 Can someone help me out with a correct measurement of the width (at the widest point directly behint the flipper) of the lane guides for a Bally Flash Gordon please. Mine are pretty worn and beat up so i want to make some new ones.
The main problem with them is when the ball returns down the lanes to the flippers the ball bounces up off the back of the flipper as it leaves the lane guide because the guide is so worn. See pics attached.

No Worries, thanks anyway. With that in mind I think I'll go a heavier gauge stainless steel than the original when I make them.
