Pretty simple setup, really. You just need to know the size of the puck you want to use, and then place the pegs in a hatch pattern that allows it to move within them. If you want it bartop size, I'd suggest just making it use coins or tokens, rather than mess with a coin door.
For the pegs, I'd use threaded rod dipped in the rubberizer they sell at HD for tool handles. Drill your pattern on the backboard and insert T-nuts in the back, then run the rods in from the front. The rubber gives enough bounce to keep the token moving, without scarring it.
Hope some of that was useful, I'm sure someone will post a better idea soon
