Quoted from bingopodcast:Wish I had a router (and skills to use it!).
Easy to use and cheap for what you are doing and a must in the woodworking arsenal, small is the one I use most, got rid of my big one and have not regretted it after 10 years:

Quoted from bingopodcast:$30!? Wow, will pick up.
Quoted from bingopodcast:Ordered! Also, 12pc carbide tip set. Looking forward to trying on some scrap wood before cutting some holes. Thank you for the tip!
You bet, also with Harbor Freight look for coupons as they have many and you should be able to get what you need for even less.
Quoted from bingopodcast:I need to lace the cables again - things are starting to get a bit hairy in there! However, part of me wants to wait until the remaining wires are in place.
Nick, why don't you use zip ties for holding your temp wire bundles together(loosely-easy to cut off) then just lace the finished bundles when your done?
Nick, Not sure if you are using a credit unit or not but if so you could just do free play the old fashioned way and put an alligator jumper clip on the two switches in the back while the game is at a show then just simply un-clip them when it's back to coin op.
So basically what is done with em games at shows already, although some may just bend the switches together which is not good for them long term to keep doing.
That's keeping with the 70's.
Quoted from bingopodcast:I'm not using a credit unit, in keeping with other EM arcade games. It makes for a bit if a challenge, since there's no switch to keep closed like that... But that is how I'd do it if I added a credit unit.
I know my 1969 Williams Phantom Gun used a Credit Unit but I guess it just depends on what arcade games you are looking to model yours after. You'll figure it out either way as you have the all powerful EM logic brain.
