[QUOTE="Luckydogg420, post: 101939, member: 3551"] Thanks for the inspiration. I saw sotie's cab and new immediately that I needed to build one. And in the process found your thread. This is truly an inspired design, much better then anything commercially available (like the gameloft duo pinball attachment.) The plunger was simply the icade core original joystick with some large flat washers and a spring added. Wire the switch as "NC" so it activates when pulled. It doesn't move the cab at all when plunging. I really like it for the skill shots, the longer you hold it out the farther the in game plunger pulls. I haven experienced any flipper lag, the leaf switches that I installed are on a hair trigger. There's no bezel. The iPad slides in the back along groves that hide most of the frame. I want to get some side mirrors for in the cab. (Just like on a real pin) lol. I think it will add to the affect. The legs need work. I just cut them off and slapped them on the box. I might look for little leg levelers too. Any ideas? I like the look of a speaker panel, although mine is empty looking. I'd like to add something to the DMD area, maybe a sticker, maybe a mini LCD on a raspberry pi. Lol. I doubt it, but there is room in the backbox for a raspberry pi. The lights and sounds in the backbox is a definite bonus. I really like sotie's idea of the jambox in the backglass, (but I can't afford one now) I used a USB powered speaker that plugs into the iPad headphone jack. (Bluetooth would be way better) the lights and speakers run off 4xAA batteries. When the music thumps, the lights dim a bit. It's kinda cool, kinda not. My backbox folds to change the artwork. I like the pic you have in the back ( I have no photoshop skills ) The tilt bob I installed works with 3 leaf switches around it. In total you'd only need about 4" height to have it swing around. Right now it does bounce and register a double hit occasionally, I want to improve on this. I have a mercury tilt switch from a thermostat that will work but again it might be to sensitive as well. I really need an idea for a theme. I want to disassemble and paint it before I make everything permanent. [/QUOTE]
