Hi everyone,

Been restoring my LAH pinball and after close inspection ive found that the blue Tar Pit Ramp left hand side is snapped in half, looks like theres been a previous repair, was wondering if anyone has repaired this ramp? And tips and tricks, i know you can buy replacements however there expensive! I have bought some JB weld, any advise would be great?
 
Any images? Think it will be difficult to fix it permanently by gluing it. If it is outside the ball run area and not visible you may get away with drilling holes and using cable ties.
Not sure of shipping cost but https://rampomatic.com/products/data-east-last-action-hero-blue-lagoon-ramp-500-5718-00 doesn't seem that expensive given the cost of the machine?
Bad picture will take a better one later, its right at the back past the 2 lock lights, i know what your saying but already put quite a bit of money in, maybe later down the line, just fixing it for now, cheers for the reply

Looks like cable ties would be an option there. Won't look nice but will work.
 
I ordered some jp weld seen it on pinball shenanigans he repaired his white water ramp with it, i glued some flat pieces of plastic on the under side to add a brace, im letting it cure for 24hrs doesn't look to bad drys clear however its bumpy might make a decal to cover it, seemed quite strong this morning but might put some small bolts in to clamp it too.
