I've receive a ton of PMs from people inquiring about cabinets and if I'd be willing to repair or build parts for their machines.

First, let me be very clear. I am a pinball hobbyist, like 99.9% of everyone else on PinSide. I don't even have time to finish my own projects, which is why these back boxes are being sold in the first place , so I definitely don't have time to take on any additional work.

With that said, I do have the cabinets cut for these back boxes. However, some addition work and assembly is required.

Here are pics of the cabinet parts:

Here are:

(2) Transformer Assembly Support Braces
(1) Speaker Panel
(1) Power Switch Panel
(1) Coin Door Assembly Support Brace
(1) Cabinet Top Assembly
(1) Assortment of Biscuit Tenons
(1) Triangular Piece of Wood (For Corner Support Blocks)

If you are interested, I'll sell you the cabinet parts and you can finish and assembly them.

You'll need to:

1) Cut the slots for the glass channel guides
2) Cut the hole for the shooter rod assembly (location is game specific in some cases)
3) Drill holes for playfield mounting support brackets
4) Drill holes for coin door bezel pieces and lock bar assembly
5) Assemble the cabinet
6) Drill the holes for the leg brackets

Note: I only have one top assembly, so you would need to fabricate this for the second cabinet.

All corners are cut with proper lock miter joints. Biscuit joins are used to join the braces to the cabinet sides. Floor panel fits in dado slot.
