Quoted from gdonovan:

One facet of this project which I have not mentioned is I have an eye towards making this a universal Bally/Stern cabinet where playfields can be swapped out in minutes. The hardest part would be sound, though I might just add a dual pole switch to swap the speaker and volume control from Stern to Bally with a flip.

This is what I am doing with a Star Trek cabinet & Magic playfield. Interested in what you come up with. I had to add a coin button to run Stern.

Quoted from Quench:

Stenciling generic Stern on the side of the cabinet will look out of place when it's set up as a Bally game.

You don't play the cabinet. Function > Form.

Did not expect you to move this swiftly.

Quoted from gdonovan:

Came out well. With all these "modules" in play, safe & convenient back glass storage was rapidly coming to be an issue.

Really interested in what you come up with for playfield storage... got the same problem.
