Coin Door Button Supports

 

Purchased a blank coin door from VirtuaPin and 3D printed these little supports for my coin door buttons.  There is a right and a left, one of them has an extra hole to route the wires.  They bolt right on with existing hardware and use the existing light, soldered the wires on.  Then mapped them to the insert coin button feature.  I hooked mine in parallel so both do the same thing but, sky is the limit, vol up and vol down would be a good idea too.

Playfield Support

 

Welded up a hinged brace for my playfield to get it out of the way easily.  I glued and screwed wood holders to the sides of the cabinet to support it.  Then 3D printed a retainer for the top.

 

 

The metal tabs sticking out of the sides were to support the Aluminum 1/2" U channel I used to fill in the gaps on the side. (43" in a widebody)  Then also added a prop rod so it stays up like a car hood.  Prop rod has a retainer clip on the inside of the frame to hold it out of the way.  The other end of the prop rod inserts into one of the contactor bar supports.  The large blue 3D printed block supports the whole frame at the right height.

 

 

Decased the TV and screwed it directly to the metal back with short screws.

 

 

Had to move this board out of the way and then create a new support for it.  Moved it up on top of the frame.

Amazing build! And you are the first guy here I guess who treats Blender like an tricky version of microsoft Paint, just to get a nice decal. You have my respect for that!

Thank you!  It's pretty quiet, they're designed to be in your living room move air and not be heard.   Moves a ton of air though.
