basscleff Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Hello, all. I love this absolutely!!!! Just discovered mini-pin and am blown away! So for my first project, I am wanting to make the KISS pinball. I would love your advice and input, so here goes; I have read and read, and still have some questions: My goal is to make a scaled KISS mini-pin. I prefer only 2 LCD's (the 3rd takes away from the original pinball) althought I know it would limit be from re-using the cab for another pin table. (may just reconsider the 3rd lcd) 1) What cabinet dimensions would you suggest for a playfield monitor of 22", or a 24" (if the price is right) are there plans available for my desired lcd's 2) What size backglass lcd would you suggest. The older pin's seem to have a wider backglass, but more square. 3) the old style blackglass had 4 player analog score counters. Can the pinball be made to mimic that, or is a 3rd lcd required for the scores? thx !!!! I have started and wanted to post some pics excuse the bad camera and bad handy work I'm a musician, not a tradesman, and you need to be a tradesman to make one of these right trial and error for me thx to everyone for the inspiration and help! Finally got mt KISS artwork done. My designer rocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njay Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Hi and welcome ! Look in my thread mini pin x build it has measurments for a 24 inch lcd with a 18,5 inch backbox monitor ... keep in mind to include your mdf thickness in the numbers for you question: if you install uvp server with hyerppin you can display the scores on the second monitor just like a real machine so yes the four places for the scores are there and working very cool indeed for a mini pin 3 monitors are to much for space .. and it will not look right in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzStick Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 A few members have put up simple plans showing some basic cabinet measurements, however I can't remember who off the top of my head! Just do a search in the Hyperpin section for "cabinet plans" and see what you find, then use those dimensions and scale them down to suit the monitors you plan to use. I reckon 2 screens would be for you - use a 24" widescreen for the playfield and either a 19" or 20" 4:3 for the backbox. This will keep the whole thing looking proportional. Use UVP as others have mentioned to set up "proper" scoring in your backbox. There's a heap of machines that use the same layout as KISS so you'd get really good use out of the setup you're planning....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
