How many feet of Ground Braid is in a new Bally WPC89 Cabinet?
I am thinking of getting a new cabinet for my Bally Doctor Who and am compiling a list of things needed. I know it runs the full perimeter of the sides of the cabinet under the leg bolt holders, and to speaker, transformer, coin door, service receptable and up into a post in the head. I do not want to reuse what is in the old cabinet held on by rusty staples. Any places I am forgetting that it needs to run too or touch?

Does it touch the lock down bar as well? I have to look at some of my tear down pics.

Why yes it does! Prompted me to look at some of my own pictures. I see it hits a coin door nut/bolt and runs up to the lockdown bar. Good catch.

I found two more pictures of where the ground braid runs in the cabinet along the bottom of the sides ending up at the lock bar. It makes a detour up to the PF pivots, over to the transformer, up to the back screen in the back of the cabinet. I guess I will have get out a measuring tape and over estimate the lengths involved.
