Quoted from gearhead:
Oh, and the new lockdown bar latch system SUCKS! I'll be converting that asap.

Congrats on your game! Really is something special.

Not sure why the hate for the lockdown bar. Can maybe understand compared to the BW system, but it’s better than the previous Stern system which you can’t adjust and is almost always loose. Can also understand the new system is maybe not the best for location, where its long term viability may be questionable.

But for home use, it works better than all other systems I’ve used.

Quoted from Who-Dey:
What does he mean by the "new" lockdown bar? Does he mean the one that stern has been using several years now or is there a new design?

Yeh, he’s talking about the snap down ones that have been used for a couple of years. AFAIK operators aren’t too fond of them because the cabinet bracket eventually comes loose due to the cheaper cabinet wood being used. But for home use they’re great.

Quoted from gearhead:
Awesome info, thanks! I'll get right on that.

Yes, that's what I meant. It's new to me. Just my initial reaction was that fumbling for the latches is much more of a pain than the release lever. Maybe I'll give it a little more time to adjust, it's not really a big deal I guess. But I've never had an older release style bar that was loose so I much prefer that method.

Here you go. I realize it is slightly out of place with the Egyptian theme of the rest of the art, but I like it sooo much better that I don't care. [quoted image]

Yeh, seems a bit fiddly at first, but the benefit of it being rock solid quickly wins you over.
