Best way of storing a translite?

[Mfresh]

I just got one of them funky 3D translites, so I need to store the original one.

So my question is this: is there any reason why I should not roll it up and store it in a cardboard tube?

Or is it essential to store a translite flat?

Thanks!

Personally I'd roll it in a wide tube at least 100mm but 150mm if possible.

Whats the verdict on the 3d ?

3D translites are fun, they look great, and Pinball Dreams has done a great job on them.

I probably wouldn't buy more though. It's a really nice novelty but one is enough. A ColorDMD or a Pinsound board is more expensive but I think you get much more for your money from either of them.

They are too expensive for me.
I'd roll a sheet of brown paper or wrapping paper up with it so its not rolled up on its self.

which one did you go for?

I was sort-of expecting the AFMr to come with a 3D translite option, not that I could afford one!

I got the Fish Tales one. Works well with the fishing man and monster fish!

video please Paul, can you show us what it looks like?

 

[Mfresh]

Sure Dan, I'll take one later. But you should really come and see it for yourself.

i'll be at yours for the league meet in 3 weeks but yeah, i'd love to come before then to do some drinking and acting of the goat

Well I have tried a few times to take a video of this 3D translite but it just doesn't seem to show up on video however much I move the camera. I'll try again tomorrow. ...
