Ok.... i dont want to skimp on the coin mechs.

The question now is....

Would you rob the vendetta cab of the coin doors, or sell the vendetta cab for $150 to go torwards new coin doors?

do all 4 player games require 4 coin mechs or could one get by on 4p games with 1 coin mech?

Some games require each player have their own mech/coin input , like TMNT. You can somewhat get around this by mapping 1 coin input to all 4 players. This will create the issue of , for example, all 4 turtles getting credits when only 1 to 3 people are playing.

I could live with that solong as it dont drop all 4 players in game as soon as they get credits. Know of any games that do that?

WHAT ABOUT OMEGA RACE BRAH!!!!

Got the top back panel cut and screwed in, need more ply.

I had a piece of the 3/4 pine left so figured Id use it for the CP top.
Laid out the template and centerpunched everything. Then came the rookie mistake......  :angry:  :angry:  :angry:
I didnt clamp the sheet down and on my first button hole when it broke through it grabbed and tore a chunk out of the hole. Was going to quit but figured I would finish it and use it as practice.
After clamping I didnt have any issues..... So what can I do? Fill the area that tore out with putty and then shape that button hole with my dremel and a sanding drum?

I drilled the holes on an old table so had a surface under the CP and figured that would stop splintering on the backside....It didnt  :angry:
The angle grinder and a resin sanding pad made short work of removing the splintered areas and its smooth as a babys but t , Now though theres a slight dishing on the backside of the button groups, Will this cause any issues with buttons sitting flush?

Oh I tried the spade drilling halfway then flipping and finished from other side on a scrap piece- and it splintered even worse.
It looks fine now that I sanded the splinters away but had to dish out about 1/16" of material so just worried about that causing issues.



edit..... also.... does the stick holes look too close to the buttons?  :badmood:
( this is how the template was I got online, I thought they looked too close but figured once it was drilled/cut out at 100% size it would be ok but they still look close to me.
