I didn’t get a reply from my earlier post so will also the question again. What are people using for replacement grounding under the lockdown bar and coin door mechanism when the old aluminium stripping is rusted/broken? Regular ground braid or is there an era appropriate substitution ?
Quoted from northvibe:I've just used the plain ground braid,

You in theory could take thick gauge wire, and crimp eyelets and go between the ground points I suppose.
Thanks. The cabinet will likely get a full strip repair and repaint at some point so I may use braid when I do that
