I bought these remote controlled outlets for my games ages ago, and I noticed the velcro that was holding the remote to the wall was starting to tear the paint off, so I made this today. Nothing too fancy, but I did make countersink cutouts for the mounting screws:

I did a similar designed print for the remotes in the bedroom, the wife is pretty supportive of my hobbies and that's the one she love the most....the simplest one :p

Anyone have a UM or Iron Maiden playfield scan?
I want to get some measurements off of them.
and my first attempt at a 3D print for my RG. Using tinkercad. I'll see how it works out.
Also a rollerskate keychain for the change door.

Morning, anyone able to print the PF images for me? I think I have the files. Hopefully they can be printed without the stand. Thanks.

I'm looking for an STL for the clips that people were making to hold the coin door interlock buttons in on modern games. I know I've seen these before, but I can't find it on thingiverse/yeggi, and it might just be searching for the wrong thing. It's just a piece that clips over the interlock switch so that it keeps it held in while the coin door is open. Useful for tournaments when you want to remove stuck balls without killing the PF power. Just trying to see what's out there before I just design my own.

I this saved as service switch actuator and might be what you are looking for?

Ended up making my own clips and putting the STLs here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7314480. Needed 3 different sizes to fit all the games. For the spike2 one, I just need to make sure that wire bundle doesn't push the clip off:

Shouldn't you be covering only the coil power interlock? By covering the door switch as well you are disabling the tilt prevention during a ball recovery (tournament), assuming you set the appropriate setting..
