My Pachinko cabinet build video - Matrix

[Decat]

So I still have not posted any pictures here (since all my photos are still on my iPhone) so I just made a quick build/how to video last night in iMovie and just uploaded it to YouTube straight from my phone:

Pachinko Cabinet Build - Matrix - YouTube

I just got back from Lowes with the 2x8's cut to size (Unfortunately those idiots dont know how to measure, so a few of the cuts are a bit long.) I'm hoping to make the cuts exact to your measurements and build one like yours this weekend. Thanks for posting!

Got some work done to mine this weekend

I tried using green spray paint, but I wasn't satisfied with the coverage, as well as it being darker than I wanted (I wanted to match the green frame of the machine). I went to Lowes and got a can of brush on paint which was much brighter and gave more even coverage. If I can get a friend or two over to help lift the machine, I should have this thing finished by the end of the weekend.

Thanks for the idea, I added a modern pachinko to my mix and felt the cabinets I made for the vintage ones weren't going to be up to the task. I used the basics of yours and added a couple of small changes.
- I made the sides out of a single piece of 2 X 8 and just made daidos for the cross piece.
- I also extended the top so I could make a ball drop (also in my vintage ones) so loading it back up is easier.

I included some pics of the unfinished unit below (i'll get to sanding it and finishing it some day but needed a place to put it more urgently).
