kizam33 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Love your theme! Looks great so far. If I could go back I would buy a 28" tv for the back box. If you go 32'', I found out everything you need for you back box, you have to custom make or order. The inside of my back box ended up being 30"wide x 26 3/4" tall. H-channel, DMD panel had to be custom. Its like 3 more inches then standard. good luck and welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaitantheevil Posted March 5, 2015 Author Share Posted March 5, 2015 Hi, i'm soon posting some progress an my widebody buidl I base myself on the plan widebody with the defaut dimensions But now my problem i have to adapt the cabinet for the playfield (i have to route about 2cm) Look at the notes I should like black marks just the panel mount or red give a slope? if so how much? How deep it really should be at the coin door? I have a daughter eight years with not so big hands and should have good acces to the buttons .. the original dimensions of 44mm are too high for me personally ... as shown in the picture there is about 2 cm from the playfield glass Thank you for your input. P. S. I know that the panel after adjusting the legs / feet will have some slope.. i i only speak about the flat cabinet Sincerly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bclout Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Hi there, thanking you for sharing so much detailed information. My bartop is almost finished and i am looking for a new project soon. As you are located in Europe as me (living in Basel), where do you buy all the stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaitantheevil Posted March 17, 2015 Author Share Posted March 17, 2015 Hello bclout i send you a pm Well my build start to get into shape woodwork is nearly finished so up for some paint here are some Pics of the build up until now so you can see there is some progress being made:) PC is running well up until know .. but i got still some open points some hopefully somebody here can help me out So'm back a little further and come now to the last few% of my planning and thank God my orders ... and wanted you your Meihnung questions here Shaker: what can you recommend .. because there are large differences in price if the options i know so please give me your input/experience and a few suggestions Gearmotor: is it a must have ? if so any suggestions? Beacon lights: funny Idea but ... do you really need it does it really adds something to the cab ? LED's / Lighting: For me this is a teaser! So I want to 5 Flasher block in the rear part of the playing field .. optinal 5 more on the Top of the cabinet My initial thought was the CREE LED's in RGB-W .. The RGB I could then "normal" use and the W's summarized as Strobo What do you think? Alternatively, would be RGB and the external strobes the better solution btw. i have a hard time finding those external strobes.. Is there also an easy way to use the LEDs at full power? 1000mA I think optocoupler goes but I do not think those are the cheap for a few cents .. very open to suggestions and ideas BAM: who here has already experiences made with BAM? If it workes like i saw on some videos i thik it's absolutely amazing If so how do you use it with PS3 Camera or Kinect (i have an old Kinect at home an 1 PS3 Kamera) I think my biggest problem will be the position of the Kinect on the top of the backbox.. anyone tried it out ? What about that "set" you could buy ? I can't find any sources anymore is it Worth it ? Sorry for all the questions Hopefully i can find some Answers Shaitan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tredog Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 BAM w/ IR Tracking is amazing, however you do NOT want to mount it at the top of your backbox. I have the IR Kit from RandR, and the optimal placement is right above the playfield. Unfortunately, by the time I decided to order it, it was too late to incorporate it into my build (mini-pin). The kit is made from two PS3 Cams and can be found from RandR's thread here: http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?showtopic=25606. I would also sell my set for $75 plus shipping (if your interested), but it looks like your out of the states so shipping may be a bit higher... Just checked the link here: http://www.randrcomputers.com/store/ Says its out of stock and "Have supplied 250 kits and has been a blast! Thank you EVERYONE!" Kind of sounds like he may have stopped making them, let me know if your interested in mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaitantheevil Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 Hello Tredog, thank you for your info and your proposal i'm at the same as you to late to incorporate it to the Panel... and honestly no space to the weekend i thought abour having an Kinect for 360 an i got even luckier because it was an old version with seprate power supply, so hooked it up an configured everthing but didn't try FP;) so ass soon i tested it i will give you a reply.. but when it's so amazing why do you sell it ?

Tredog Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 it wont fit in my cab. I don't want it mounted externally, and I had my build in progress before ordering it. I tried mounting it on top the backglass, but it wont see my youngest as she is too short (works best just above playfield and about 4' or further away / my cab is only 3'). My design was too narrow to put them beside the speakers, so now they are just boxed up in my closet. I will either use them in a future build or sell them to my buddy when he start his pin (or on here is someone wants them before hand). Click my cab in the signature if you want to see the build, you can see the cams in the early build pics. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kizam33 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I thought the BAM only worked for Future Pinball but I could be mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tredog Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Pretty sure you are correct, Only FP supports BAM for the time being that I can tell. @kizam33 Who posted what to make you say that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kizam33 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Reading my quote again, I am not sure why I said it that way. Lol. I think I was just making sure there was no new support for VP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
