Ok, the mold is done and we are ready to roll! I have made the part with one slight variation to make them protect the necks a ton better than the original part. The only difference is the front lip is raised a little bit to allow for more flex if the part is ran into the wall. Although not shown at this time, the holes will be drilled out and will match so it is just a bolt in replacement for your existing part.

I can make these in two color choices: White or black... The white can be painted for something custom if need be.

There are also three thickness choices as well: .060, .080 and .093 thick

The material has two choices: Original used ABS and I can do HIPS if you like. The HIPS will take paint better than the ABS will.

The cost is $40.00 each and you can order as many as you like. I can get the HIPS ones done super fast while the ABS will take a little longer. The original bubbles used .080 ABS recycled grade. I have chosen an acrylic cap virgin grade and it looks a TON better.. See for yourself!

So, again the price is $40.00 each and that is shipped via first class slow poke. I can do it faster if you like if you want to pay the difference. I am not asking for paypal fees that is why I set the price where I did. This way fees are in there and shipping is too... making the parts around $30.00! Not too bad!

Thanks! PF!

Make sure I have your shipping address with payment so I can get these out asap!

I am glad to see these being made again. They ave been made before, but didn't seem to sell too well. I'm not raining on your parade and hope they do well since these are needed from time to time (too many are broken).

What's the deal with these? Sent payment Saturday and no word yet. Can you give me an ETA phineas foo?
 
Troy had his made out of 3/16" ABS. He also didn't drill the holes, because the bolt pattern is not the same on all games that use the bubble.

Yep, that was me. I did 2 runs of these a few years back totaling 60 pcs. I'd say the first 20 on each batch went pretty quick. I have since sold them all.......

I still have the mold, didnt think there was enough interest for a 3rd run.....

I don't know the seller but have heard others make positive comments about him and his work. If I looked at the dates correctly it's been 16 days since you sent the funds. Yes the seller should have responded if you asked a question. I will also note that the seller has not logged on in the past 5 days. Keep in mind that this is also an item that he will make in different thicknesses at the buyers request so the item is not premade sitting on a shelf ready to ship. IMO if my time line is correct, it hasn't been long enough yet to be upset that the item has not arrived. Although I would be a bit annoyed if I had sent a PM or email in the time frame that I know he had logged on and gotten no response.
 
Oh, I agree. I am not upset. I even slipped in an extra $5 because I felt that $30 was really not fair to him. Just trying to help a brother get his business rolling.

That said, I have sent him a couple of PMs and, of course, there is the PayPal notification he would have gotten. These messages all took place a few days before his last posts on here so it's reasonable to assume he should've/could've seen them.

I am just looking for a warm fuzzy... not in any particular hurry, and I certainly won't have any lasting financial duress over $35, but he was fairly actively soliciting sales so one would think he was serious about selling stuff.

Seems like I am not alone in wondering... if anyone out there knows him, perhaps call or visit to make sure he's doing alright. We all know "life" can change things in a hurry.
