    I was going to share this piece of game room tip a while back but I think I forgot. This tote bin from Home Depot fits PERFECTLY underneath a pinball machine and it has wheels in the back for easy in and out. https://www.homedepot.com/p/IRIS-169-Qt-Store-It-All-Tote-Storage-Bin-in-Black-250084/300735810 (the black model is twice the price for some reason).

    The only games in my collection it doesn't fit under is JM and the Gottlieb's. All older Bally/WMS, Stern (classic and new ones) and TNA. It's like it's made for it. Snug as a bug in a rug.

    Why didn’t it work under Johnny Mnemonic?

    It nips the tote at the top. Somehow the game is having narrower legs. Same thing when I slide my harbor freight lift underneath, it's just about it gets in there.

    Doesn't it kill the sound coming from the cabinet speaker?

    What do you keep in those things? Just spare parts?

    I like it. I don’t store things under my pinball machines because I don’t want it to look messy and junky but I don’t have a large basement and could certainly use the extra storage area. This looks very clean and organized. Thanks for the tip

    Haven't really thought about that but the low frequencies that come from the bass just need a gap of air to escape.

    Since I use all my 440sqft. in the garage for pinball, I don't have many storage options. It's mainly crap that usually goes in a garage that's stored in them. Some pinball stuff though.

    I like the yellow “footies”. Where can those be purchased?
    I also like your “epoxy-like” floor. Looks durable.

    It's epoxy, two coats + the concrete sealer done by a professional, it's indestructible but scratch easily. About $10/sqft.
