I have this exact switch. It will work but it will not fit in a 3/4" hole. You might be able to modify a button and drop it in the button casing.

I thought he was going through 3/4" mdf not a 3/4" hole, am I not reading the original correctly?

Well, here it is:



It's kind of a beast.  Momentary, two position switch.   Won't work on a 3/4" deep surface, though.  1/2", maybe 5/8".
QuarterJunkie:
After reading the posts about already having key access from the coin door, a switch mounted inside does seem the more logical choice. Thanks!!

No, I misread it.

Your coin door already has a keyed entry though, so just put a toggle inside there.

Good call.
Turnarcades:
I've not got much experience with these types of switches.

Could one of these be used in theory to replicate the key-turn switches that replaced start buttons on cabinets like Outrunners?

I'm about to start work on a driving cabinet and this would be a nice touch.
