Quoted from undrdog:

Spool spacers won’t stay attached to play field.
Been filling the playfield holes with toothpick slivers & rescrewing.
Considering filling with wood filler or going to T-nuts.
Thoughts?[quoted image]

I've been converted to using t-nuts, they hold better in my opinion.

Quoted from undrdog:

The screws on these posts are only a half inch longer than the posts. Should I get longer screws so it goes deeper into the playfield?
There's no room for t-nuts, but I’m thinking that a plain set of #8 bolts and nuts ought to work. Then again, you don’t really see nuts below the playfield. Too much vibration for them to stay tight? Could do double nuts to keep it tight. Could eat into the wood, but so do t-nuts.

Washer and blue loctite should do it if you have the room for a nut.
