Pinball Cab 42" LCD Playfield
IronBuddha:
Damn that's coming out sweet! I'm definitely keeping an eye on this build!
I have a question that's probably been asked a bajillion times. Is it ok to keep the lcd on it's back like that? I ask because when I purchased mine the employee pretty much told me to treat it like it's a fabriche egg.
Kurt:
lcd's are pretty rugged no problem laying them down or with the vibrations.
Plasmas are the ones you can't lay down or it will bleed out.

I did not know that. Good info. Don't use Plasma for a pin cab playfield!

Another great pinball build! Fantastic work Kurt! I've just recently decided to build a virtual pinball and I'm looking to gather as much information from as many threads as possible. Yours will definitely be a resource!
Regarding the side art..there are a few things that I'm not a fan of and thought you'd want the additional input...
1) Have you ever looked at something one way and then always see it that way? (A little like the old 'is it a rabbit or a duck?' picture). To me, the pinball with cape and hair looks like a hole with a cape hanging out.
2) The people are pointing up, but 'Superpin' is to their right
3) How's that logo gonna look on the other side? Imagine the big 'S' closer to the flipper buttons, leading to the narrower 'n' toward the thicker back part of the cabinet.
4) I don't see the need for the additional 'Superpin' on the top.
Again, kudos on all your hard work that is obviously paying off!
