Quoted from PinMonk:screw it into the leg plate.
Thanks for taking the time to make/post this super helpful tutorial.
Quick question: do you recommend drilling pilot holes before screwing the mounting screws into the cab' walls? It appears you did not on this IMDN. Are virtually all wood screws in pinball machines installed *without* pilot holes? And if that's true, are pilot holes contraindicated? Like, will a pilot hole actually compromise the hold of the screw? I've had screws that hold things like lamp sockets to the bottom of the PF pull their way free, as if the threads were forced to bite in sawdust rather than in true, dense wood. I figure I'm only gonna get one shot at this, so I want to do it right.
