Cabinet building advice

[ruckage]

Thanks for the replies,

I'm still mulling over how to handle accessing locks on the machine, I think my only option really is to just drill the holes in each side to access the catches but it does seem a bit of a shame to cut big holes in the sides of the cabinet so are there any other options?

I know some people remove the lock and then thread a cord through to the latch but it seems like removing locks on a Sankyo machine is very difficult.

You could try leaving the lock and only removing the latches. Seems like there will be enough weight and friction to keep it closed. Open it by pulling on the finger rest post.

Don't you also want an LED light jackpot sequence?

That might not be a bad idea, even without the latch you would have to forcefully pull on the door to open it so that could be a solution.

I love your LED jackpot, I had thought about doing something similar but it seemed that it would require a lot of dismantling to achieve - have you made topic showing the way you achieved it?

There is a zip file I could email to you; it's just over 1 meg and thus can't be posted.
Send me a PM with your email address; if you wish to tackle.
Yes, there is a lot of dismantling.
