Star wars machine update

[Glitchh]

So I now have everything working except the Darth vader mask that gets stuck sometimes(gears slipping). I hit fever once and realized I don't have enough balls or place to put them. So, new build!I'm going to build a cabinet that holds more balls than the tray, and add in a ball lifter. I also bought a daverob dongle off his website so once the machine is in the cabinet I never have to open it up to get more balls. I also want to add a battle counter eventually, but don't which one to buy (Mine has the cn plugs)
If anyone has suggestions on which battle counter they like most drop it in the comments.

One of the simplest is any of the Asahi One counters. They just need a 24vac supply. Taken from the machine transformer. Then 3 pairs of wires to connect straight to the back of the machine. Daiichi ones are also good and the later ones are huge and put on a better light display
But you do need an interface board between the machine and counter. Some people have found that they end up with either the wrong type of board (for a pachislo not pachinko) or an incompatible interface that just doesn't work with the counter. All in all. It's personal preference. No counter will come with the plugs for.the Crystalla frame, unless you get it from some one who had a machine with similar plugs. Or made an adaptor. Hopefully someone might have some spare flying leads. (Maybe Peteybob) I do have some but postage to the USA for something so small would not be affective.

Good luck! Here’s some cabinet ideas! (Top hopper holds 3000+ balls)
I’ve got a couple Star Wars, the first one and the last 3D Battle of Vader.

battle counters are plasma (pachinko) infusion, they are listed below machines, scroll down to see https://www.plasmainfusion.com/pachinko.html

Thanks for the links! I just bought more balls and got the wood to start building the cabinet. Also, does anyone know what shipping to the US is like for the daverob dongles? Bought one off his website last week.

I buy my Daverob dongles from Modern Pachinko in Michigan.

I would, but I already purchased one directly from his website.
