I searched for pink t-mold for a kiddy-cab I built not long ago, it doesn't exist yet. T-mold.com was considering making it. Might have to go with all lime-green.
These might intrest you..

I could do a custom run of t-molding, but the minimum run would be 5,000 feet >:(
I doubt we could get that much together, but if we could the price would be very good, $10 for 35 feet I think.

I could actually use 20' of it or so also... but not 10,000 lol
-
LOL, we should start a sticky for bids on how much pink t-molding people would want. Maybe we could at least get close to 5,000.
Anyone that wants a Ms. Pacman to stand out in a crowd, or other games of that nature.
Maybe it would add to the allure of a machine..." With RARE custom PINK T-Molding!!!" lol. Just an Idea.
I could use 35ft!
Now we got 55ft., 4,945ft to go!!! :P

Knievel - Thanks for the links! I will look into those if the red comps I ordered from ponyboy aren't what I think they are. Also, I really love your cabs. I was really inspired by the design. ;D
- Thanks

I'll take 35 ft. It would go great with my pink dreamarcades buttons and joysticks!

Yeah I always hoped that DreamArcades would get pink T-molding becuase its such a perfect fit with their joy/button sets. I'm building my gf a bartop soon, and I know pink T-molding would go over great lol
-
I'll take 35' as well. I already have the pink buttons from DA. My daughter really needs pink t-mold to match! So are we there yet?
-
KEEP EM COMIN' GUYS! lol :o
-=XD=-
-
Let's do the math...
5000 / 35 = 142.85
Round it up and you get 143. Minus 3 takers...
Ya'll only need 140 more people to buy in!
-
I am sure that you could sell some on EBay too
-
Well if I get the cabinet done before it's available I will probably get white t-mold and try to paint it with Krylon Fusion.

As stupid as this sounds... I never even thought of that. I bet it would work.
And not to tell anyone how to run their business, but I would imagine just being the ONLY place to get pink T-molding would be a nice selling point for DreamArcades (or anyone), but they would have to take the chance with the initial cost outlay.
I would buy some.. and it seems others would too... but I highly doubt we'll get another 140 people to chime in on this thread heh. :)
-
I'm not sure how much it costs to have t-molding made but I'd guess about .20/foot. This is an initial cost of $1000. That really isn't too bad. I wonder if Dream Arcades, Groovy Game Gear, t-mold.com, t-molding.com and Ponyboy would grab a large portion each to sell. That might work. Heck I'd put up the money if I can get buy in from them to buy 500-1000 feet each. They might since it is a much smaller upfront cost each.

That is actually a good idea, although really they would all be competing against each other. But you are right about the smaller upfront costs.
I don't have cash to buy into a bulk deal, but I'd certainly buy enough for a few bartops :) Let's hope someone makes it happen one way or another.
-
I wrote to them so I'll guess I'll see what response I get. I didn't email pony, I mailed Happs directly instead.
-
I spoke to my rep. I think I can get it color matched, but the price will be a little higher.
If I can get 30 orders of of 35 feet @12.99 each (plus shipping). I'll go ahead and order some. I'm thinking of hot pink that would match our pink buttons and joysticks: (http://www.dreamarcades.com/images/pkib.jpg)
If anyone wanted 100 or 250 feet there would be a price break and I'd need less orders.
-
Count me in!

YAY!!! I MIGHT GET PINK T-MOLDING FOR MY RADICADE!!!! :D

You can count me in for 35' @ $12.99
EDIT: as long as I could see a pic first to ensure what it would actually look like.
-
I'd take at least 35 ft if not 70.

I'd probably buy some. No guarantees though...
-
Count me in, I could build a cab for my daughters.
Now if only you sold lavander buttons and joys. ;)
-
Ooo, hey t-molding.com wrote back with interest as well.
-
I guess we need to finalize on a color. Pink or hot pink????
I'm leaning towards Hot pink to match the DA buttons and sticks.

put me down for 1 order!

Pink or hot pink?

HOT PINK!

Im doin' the hot pink t-molding dance!
-=XD=-

My girlfriend would much prefer a more subtle pink, but I'm sure having ANY pink would make her happy.
So I guess my vote is for 1905 (that's pretty nice).. but really, anything would be ok.
Of course, if T-molding.com is interested in a more subdued color, and is definitely going through with it... maybe we could have both choices ;)
-
Hot Pink for me too! Something to think about is the recent popularity of pink, there is hot pink stuff popping up everywhere these days so selling it shouldn't be too much of a problem I would think. Also DreamArcades should include the molding in their package of pink joysticks and buttons I know I would have bought it when I got my pink buttons.
-
I count 21 orders short of 30.
-
I would be interested in some Hot Pink.
-
I'd be interested as well in a few months when I start building my daughter's mini cab...
-
dream arcades...
i bought your pink buttons and joysticks.
count me in for 2 orders at $12.99 ea.
please shoot me an email when you have it ready to ship through my site. they haven't been able to fix my email address on here yet.
http://www.keithcorcoran.com
i'd want it to match those buttons since they're pretty much the only pink buttons and joysticks available.
-
I'd say we are doing fairly good on the number of pre-orders. I'll e-mail my supplier and find out the lead time.

I am so excited! It's like all I had to do was ask and then........WHAMMY!

well I know when my girlfriend first asked if pink t-molding existed, I thought I would be the ONLY person who'd want it. Maybe we all just thought that, but it took your thread to prove there is actually a market for it heh :)
-
since I have the cash on hand it is now set aside.
Ready to order .
-
i agree with the hot pink.. or hotter pink.. to match the buttons and ball tops i got for my girlfriend's ms pac cocktail... maybe aroudn the 237 or 2375 even.. if shipping is reasonable i'm sure she'd love to have pink tmolding for 12.99...
-
Our rep. is going to send us a color sample and we should be getting that in the next couple of days. It is a hot pink color they have run in the past and she thinks it will be a perfect match. Just wanted to give a quick update.

Nice. Be sure to post a pic :)
-
Here's a photo of the sample my rep sent me. In the picture it looks like it matches the button. In real life it looks like it maches the joystick. Still, it's very close to both.

well take it! lol ;D

-
now this is 3/4 inch T-Molding correct???

The sample is 1/2 inch, but I will be ordering it in 3/4 inch.
-Mike
-
That sample looks pretty rad. I'm really looking forward to getting some of this!
-
i'll take 20' or the minimum or whatever...let me know when/how
-
Nice, I like the color a lot.
-
This seems like it would be ideal for a project I've been kicking around in the back of my head... Consider me definitely in for one 35' length.
-
as spongebob would say... I'm ready
-
any Idea , when whe can start ordering ?
Not rushing you or any thing . Just wondering if we are talking soon ,or weeks or even months away.
-
DA, you can count on me to grab some Pink t-molding. I just picked up a bunch of stuff from you, and am eargerly awaiting it. :)
Now, I'd really love to see one of your cocktails all black with the hot pink tmolding, sticks and buttons. You could make it a limited release and store it at my house as an advertising ploy. How does that sound? :)
-Stobe
-
I'll take a length.. (hmm..black bartop with hot pink t and neon green leafs..should go over well with wife in the aesthetics dept..:-)
-
We've gone ahead and ordered the pink T-molding. It should ship on Friday or this coming Monday. It will take about a week to get here, so we are looking at two weeks to ship it out.
I'll start a new thread in a couple days to take orders.
-Mike
-
Sound rad! Can't wait to order!
-
Well that was the quickest turn around for a new product post I've ever seen! NICE! I'll be ordering as promised :D
-
YAY! My Pink T_molding dreams are finally coming true!
lol
Thanks to all who contributed to making this possible.
Big Props to DreamArcades! :D

Sorry I haven't put up ordering information yet. My rep was suppose to e-mail me with shipment information Friday, but she did not. I wanted to make sure the t-molding is on its way and that I have a shipment date before I start taking orders.
I'll e-mail and/or call her tomorrow morning (Monday).
-Mike

Hi Mike,
Any chance on getting fluorescent T-moulding as well ?
-
I have e-mailed and called my rep. today, but I did not get a reply. That doesn't mean it hasn't shipped though. They just aren't good at getting back to me (which seems to be an epidemic in this whole industry).
Anyways, I figure it's most likely on its way, so I should start taking orders.
30 feet is the longest length we can include for under 2 pounds. So it's $10.99 for 30 feet, plus $5.99 for priority mail. The regular price and shipping (maybe both) will probably be more, once we end the BYOAC sale. Please email me or post for the price of longer lengths, be sure to include your zip code.
I expect to be able to ship the t-molding on Monday. If there's any delay I'll post it here ASAP.
I'm taking orders under a new subject:
