Is player control panel detachable on some machines?

[Bubel]

Is any pachislo models allowing to detach control panel with stop buttons, max bet, token slot and etc? Since I don’t have chance to import pachislo in my region I was thinking to build an Playstation2 based simulated machine. I already purchased two pachislo controllers (HORI and Sammy) and they on their way, but I think they will not be feeling good enough
The new models have buttons and handle mounted right in the solid front door, can anyone who have older pachinko (like those ones with chromatic exteriors) check if their control panels are detachable – this would be great help!

I tried to find it at YJA but I found only marques and belly glasses

Not that I now of, the doors are usually one piece, at least one maker's is 2 piece (top and bottom door). What would be a neat way to do it is get an old complete door, put a 15" lcd where the reels go and connect the buttons to a pc, mini-mame cabinet! (one of a thousand things I have yet to do, I've got all the parts, never the time )

Thank you very much Compirate! The whole front door sounds interesting, but the bad thing is the size of monitor... I’m afraid what with 15`` the "virtual LCD" will be too small in games and I`m also planning to play some PS2 pachinkos so bigger screen will be better

I have few other questions about bellyglasses

The banners with artworks is done on thick plexyglass and the flame does not contains glass at all?

Is those chrome-looking frames are metal or they are plastic?

Can anyone tell how much weigh a belly glass without a frame? Or atlest aprox. depth of glass (flat type which install into chromatic frame like this):

I just won a lot at YJA with 14 banners and I need only 6 of them – if each belly are heavy (without frame) I`ll ask not to send other 8 to save on shipping.

Those frames are very light, made of plastic. The 'glass' is plexi. Should ship very cheap

i just weighted one bellyglass, it was one pound so 14 would be 14 pounds plus the weight of packaging and box.

Thank you Lucky Dog!
I think i should ask not to send 8 I don`t need (4 Neo Planet and 4 other with no characters)
I actually found a removable panel of pachislot but this one does not have buttons at all
?????????????????? - Yahoo!??????

if your counntry has a sal agreement, that would be the best way to ship them rather than ems or slow boat.
