IE to the normally closed side (which would now be open with the button pushed) 

some coin chutes have a plastic runner, in which case you could use some screws...or a bracket and some screws to hold it in place.

but this way, you can either press the reject...get a credit...or insert a coin...and get a credit.

Nice work! :cheers:

couldnt you have drilled two holes slightly larger than the mircoswitch ones and used short 10mm self tapping screws? would be a lot easier to change if it breaks down and just as secure (unlikely but stranger things have happened) or is there something the other side? I`m using a coin mech with tokens but have put in a toggle switch to turn the free credits button next to the mech on and off behind the door.
lilshawn:
i thought that too...decided that screws may block the chute if coins want to be used too.

6 to one, half dozen to another.
CpCaveman:
countersink them (carefully! :) , its thick enough metal to leave it flush) and it`ll be ok.

this is reminding me of the first time i came to this forum searching for an answer, was to how get a mech working in my cab, got slated by people "teaching a lesson" who were then asking how to get console games working their cab. hardly "classic arcade" :)

:laugh2: "IF he wants to use the mech" :laugh2: hehe, sorry if the guy isnt going to, there wouldnt be one there, remove it leave some connections to add it again easily later untouched if you`re not and just fit the switch directly to the reject button (with an led if you want) , think he`s just not mentioning it in case he gets "told off by people with a superiority complex"  :laugh: , personally I say use the coin mech, more authentic than an xbox 360 on your cab, and add a credit button, I`ve been using the same 50 tokens since it was set up :) it aint for profit, unless you count the 30p i made off a cold caller from talktalk :) (thats not profit, thats justice :) ) the machine`s free.
ArcadeBliss:
The coins would jam on the screws.  Anyway,  epoxy was super easy.  Just as mentioned before,  I use the coin slot for my tokens.  The coin return credit is my dirty little secret
