    I like to set the tilts on all my games and find that only a few have an adjustable mechanism. The big issue is that when you have substantial slope, the plumb bob is too close to the front of the ring and leads to uneven tilt activation. How do you adjust for it?

    Thanks,
    Dave

    Quoted from DNO:

    The tricky one is the B/W ones with the white plate. You need to loosen the lower screw, then the plate is 2 pieces, that slide to move the bottom of the front piece.
    It looks un-adjustable at first glance.

    Actually, these are the only ones I find truly adjustable. I have had no problem with my pins with that mechanism.

    Quoted from DNO:

    All of them have this adjustment. (moving the ring forward or back)

    Just moving the ring forward or back gets you close but you also need to move slightly down as well. Obviously, this can be achieved by drilling new holes...just wondering what people do in that case. Do you just adjust front to back and leave it or drill new holes so it can be moved up or down?
