Rooter's Pinball
rooter:
Got my illuminated buttons, lockdown bar, and backglass monitor. The main display is under glass. I haven't made a bezel yet as I think I will be putting RGB LED's up at the top and want to see how they look up there first. Still waiting on the USB DMD board and Vishay display to become available. The new pinball simulator that loads Future Pinball tables and connects to VPinMame has me really excited. Ordered some misc force feedback parts that I will post about once they show up.
TopJimmyCooks:

Looking good, you should start a build thread and join us over on hyperpin forum. Tons of vp builds over there.
rooter:
Thanks for the compliments guys! It's definitely playable, if it wasn't I would probably have a lot more wok done on creating my own table.

I do visit the Hyperpin forum often, but I started this thread over here because of my work's firewall. For some reason it blocks the Hyperspin site, but let's me goof off in here.
rooter:
Okay, this is going to sound really stupid, but here goes.
I was told that I should get two power supplies to power my force feedback parts, a 12v and a 24v. I was directed to the power supplies in the image below. I didn't do much research as they were cheap ($28 for both) and I know others were already happy with them. Now, here is the stupid part, I expected these to come with cords. Am I supposed to just cut a cord off of an old lamp or is there a safe way that I should be setting these up? I remember the basics from my high school electronics class, but the highlight of my electrical career was wiring the buttons and LED's in my MAME cabinet, so feel free to talk to me like I am a child. Thanks!
