So I finally got my 'steel gumball' machine as seen in the original post here, but it's missing one thing. Please contact me if you have no use or desire to use your old pinballs.

Quoted from jawjaw:
That's going to be a lot of weight on the glass if full of steel balls. Be careful.

The plan is to insert some sort of lightweight filler that the balls will hide, thus reducing the overall mass but achieve a "full" look! Well 1/4 - 1/2 full is what I hope to achieve.
And the glass is plexi, and the only round one I saw when I was shopping. I thought round was perfect for pin 'balls'.
