Finally After 2Years My STAR WARS Battle of Vader" Gonna Gets his Cabinet WIP

[Flip]

If you pay attention, it is also noticeable that I had to move the control of the lock of the top Ball Pit from right to left (because the lamp was now in the way.)
Not an easy task because the construction of the pachinko does not automatically allow this. so I had to work with a few angles in the control rod. (See pictures)

Now I only had to come up with a ball catcher that then guide the balls to the pit. this is the result !
(Used materials, a piece of drain pipe, a piece of electrical pipe, and some self-adhesive rubber.)

Some short videos (I'll make some longer in the future).


All in all, I am quite satisfied with the result. But if I had to make a new one, I think the result would be completely different again.
At least the project was quite educational and will certainly come in handy in a next project that will most likely include a ball lifter.


If there are any questions, feel free to ask them, I may not answer immediately because I am busy with so many other things and I do not always find the time to take a look here.

Thank you Flip, for all of this information and taking the time to document your build. I was able to make cabs based on your design for my machines and they work great. I was even able to retrofit a ball lifter in them. Thank you again for providing such great information to the community!
