    It doesn't take much either to mark what leg goes to what place. Just need to emboss the letters "back" or "front" before the sheet metal is formed in the press brake. Or even laser etch it but really you should emboss it.

    I like what they did with Dialed In! and their way of leveling though. OR what you can do is hook up an inclinometer to the playfield and have the LCD tell you the pitch, etc on the screen itself.

    Quoted from gstellenberg:

    No need for "two digital levels". A single 3-axis accelerometer will do the trick. As Zitt mentioned above, we've implemented digital level GUI elements into our P3 machine. They get their data from the accelerometer on the P3-ROC controller board, which is mounted under the playfield. Also, the machine is designed for all of the legs/feet to be at the same length for 6.5-degree playfield pitch.
    We're happy to work with other manufacturers to help them implement digital leveling and force-based features into their games.

    Gerry can I just say your the best. I just love what you have done with certain things in the P3 system and the P3-ROC stuff. Thanks.
