Inspired by Hurry Up Pinball's Mod and @Overcrash3181 on Thingiverse. I didn't want to spend $50 USD for a 3D printed FDM mod and the STLs on Thingiverse didn't seem to work with my machine.
So…… I designed my own and made some significant improvements to the design. Gentle ramps on and off the base plate and smooth radiused edges to guide the ball into and out of the channel.
The base plate must center on the metal plate and align with the 4 mounting holes.
Your printer should be tuned so minimize over extrusion and be dimensionally accurate. If the mounting holes do not align, minor scaling to the X & Y can be made to improve alignment. It is best to adjust independently and leaving the Z alone. Be sure to apply the same scale (if any) settings to the Left and Right plates to insure alignment.
The through holes on the top plates should be 6,0-6,1 mm (#B drill), The white nylon spacers from the original plexi plates should be carefully removed and inserted into the new plates with minimal force.
The through holes on the base plate should be 3,5-3,8 mm (#25 drill)
