Cliffy and I set out to reproduce the Creature under playfield scoops. These
are tricky parts, with awkward geometry and tricky bends. Plus, they are made
from heavy gauge stainless steel.
Here
are the outlines for the blanks. These are quite tricky to draw without
flattening the original
Here
are the original and a repro, side by side. Cliffy did the bends from
memory and my bend marks. We are bith happy with the results!
The
black finish is something that we do not care to produce again. We are
experimenting with various finishing processes, and this one will not
make the cut.
