Sure the square buttons don’t belong on a pinball machine so throw those on a slot machine or in the garbage. The rest is fine.

Point taken :)  I’ll pick up the set for the convenience of the all in one package and use them in a prototype setting (cardboard or wooden box) and then swap the square buttons out for more authentic buttons when I actually do the cabinet build.

Thanks again for your help!  You guys rock!

Thanks for your helpful responses!

For the buttons, do you have an opinion of the “Ultimate Cab-Builder’s Button Kit” sold by virtuapin?

1. Make sure that you are using plywood with correct thickness – makes it much easier if you decide on using Paul’ (VPF admin) flipper button kit from virtuapin. Stay away from his nudge/plunger though.
2. Sure you want a TV ? Size seems fine to me. You need a nvidia 1070 or better to drive a 4k.
3. We have all different angles in our cabs, since it is mostly a personal preference thing. Test it out and decide yourself. You might get restricted by flashers in the back.
4. You basically want the stuff that Zebs sells as a kit. Not saying you should buy it, just telling you what I recommend for toys. There are several good alternatives out there. I simply haven’t tried them all so I can’t really tell you what is the best solution. If would however really recommend looking into getting yourself the “Rob” SSF setup for realism, and that is when it helps that you landed on a widebody.

1. What is the correct thickness plywood?
2. No, I’m not sure, but that it the cheaper way to go if the difference between a tv and a monitor isn’t all that noticeable for this project.  If going with a monitor is clearly a better experience, then I’m open to it.
