Hi
I am restoring a baby Pacman and the left metal lane guide is missing. This is the chrome plated wire type. Does anyone have a trick or know where to get one or material to make one.
Thanks
Dan
 
If you're making your own......go to a music shop and get a piece of piano wire the same thickness and bend your own. This is not difficult to do, but it's also not as easy as you'd think. Get enough wire to do several....you're gonna break a couple at first. This wire only likes to be bent once.....and then it snaps. Alternately, you could check with Pinball Resource, Marco, etc.....they often have original wire forms still in stock.

Hi great advise. I went to hobby store and bought a rod and cut ittolength and bent it to match. Turned out pretty well.
Thanks for your. Advise.
