Why attach it to the Metal CP? Simpler to attach it to wood, and run your wires longer...

I guess if you really wanted to attach to metal, you could glue wooden strips (1/4") to the metal and screw into this?

Some food for thought...
Vids:  Home built MAME machine, Crystal Castles. Arkanoid
Pins:   Williams Aztec (working). Stern Nugent (not working...yet), Williams Phoenix (major not working, missing parts.... )

Always on the lookout for buying 90's game with Ramps that need work...
