👍 [ROKR DIY & Creativity] Pinball EG01 Ball Guard Phase

Pinball Guards- Update 1

Kit : Pinball EG01

THE ROKR pinball customization process continues.

There are several ball guards that require conceptualization, prototyping, testing, then installing.

The guards are required for either preventing a ball to become airborne from hitting one of the ramp ends and being able to travel either up and out of the playing area, or becoming lodged and stuck around the perimeter.

UPPER LEFT CORNER GUARD

Working prototype crafted and temporarily installed.

Starting test phase by playing pinball.

Testing to also determine if guard is deep enough into the corner.

Testing to determine any interference to PURPLE ramp’s ball travel.

Needs better sweep angle contour of the ORANGE ramp’s left side ball rail once correct position determined.

Make final decision on material for ball deflector return, prototype is card stock paper.

Goal is more opacity to see lighting below in front of the guard.
