pinball lockdown bar on CP

<< < (2/2)

MoonDog:
The legs are a great idea, but they would probably be a bit short to bolt to a "normal" control panel if that's what you mean since they usually bolt on near the bottom of a pinball cabinet.  Well, I guess it really depends on the shape of the cabinet.  What if you cut the front half off of a pinball machine and stuck it to the front of a cabinet.  I mean this conceptually and not literally.  It would be kind of a hybrid and the legs would actually support the front.  Call it the El Camino Cab.

It would probably look a bit silly, especially with joysticks sticking out of the top.  I'm not sure what the height difference is between pinball and a "normal" arcade control panel.

RayB:
Sorry, I had missed the part where you said you were not building a whole upright.

 ;D



MoonDog:
well, i'm not building one right now, but i have a feeling it will be in my near future.  that is after i finish the trim work on the bathroom remodel.  which, despite my patience, apparently isn't going to magically finish itself.
