    Default Heiwa All Aluminum Frame

    Here are some pictures of the Heiwa Frame on the "CR Lupin the 3rd 2006" and "CR Boar Wood HJ2 2005" Pachinko Machines. Heiwa has the frame award hands down, this is far better than Sankyo's wood frame or the half wood and Half plastic ones. They are Precision Injection Molded of aluminum. A real winner!

    That's really sweet!

    Too bad the Top Gun doesn't come in that frame!

    Yes those really look nice! Vary sturdy. How much do they weigh compared to the standard wood frame?

    It looks cool, but I would have to see it in person to really appreciate it probably. I am assuming that you can't put a older Heiwa machine in this frame? Just a thought.
    On the plus side, if you move machines around alot, you won't get any splinters.

    This is my personal opinion, or of the voices in my head, and are not meant to reflect the opinion of this board.

    And now you can anodize that aluminum frame any color to match the game if need be and the color will always last!

    But it would be more difficult to install a wall mounting cabinet right ? because from what I heard is that people who are making wall mounted cabinets they still use the wooden frame ..

    Anyway that Aluminium frame looks miles better

    I'm sure they could come up with another method to hold the frame in the cabinet. But, you're right -- currently, you snug up and hold the wooden frame in the cabinets with screws. Something to consider...

    Drill a small pilot hole where the screw goes thru. Than screw the screw slowly to lock up on the hole.

    Leave them table top, I do! They move much easier this way.
