Stingray:

I'm using half a plastic jug too. I cut a piece of sheet metal to go in the bottom for that authentic clink sound too. Also when I empty it out I leave half a dozen or so tokens in there to get a nice coin rattle. I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds that sound to be essential to the true arcade experience.

Goz:

I too have some hanging coin boxes with the brakets if you need one.

I can snap a picture later if interested.

I am pretty sure that I read that the very first Pong machine that Atari built had a bread pan for a coinbox.

I have bread pans in mine till wife found out >:(
I went and bought her new ones  8)

pmc:

Thanks for all ther responses. I'm going to scope some bread pans and if that doesn't work I'll try a coffee can. Then I might go commercial/official if I don't like what I end up with.

Great ideas here. Luv this board. And I love the homebrew part of cabinet building. Thanks again.
