Build your own Virtual Pinball Cabinet - 42"/DMD/Backbox 

Prefect! It's a must to predrill screw holes especially with MDF. The board will crack if you don't. You guys did an amazing job!

Watched this back when it was first uploaded. just now starting my own build. Good video

The He-Man artwork and Playfield art is OUT of this world.

Very impressed with the whole build. Well done boys, my next build is this cabinet. Thank you

Great Job.- For doing the corner holes I bought the metal brackets and put the leg brackets inside the cabinet first. Then used the bolt holes as a drill bit guide. Drilling from the inside of the cabinet outward toward the corner. Worked great.

This is a fantastic V-pin! Thanks for sharing the construction details! :)

Probably the best build...made with a lot of love and patience

Great video! I'm a huge Killzone fan, so I like your Shadow Fall poster in the background too!

Awesome build, thanks for sharing!

Had to watch this one twice. Learned a lot. Very well done! :)

Nice cab guys, Deffo not overkill on the pre-drilled holes, MDF tends to split if you drive screws into the edge without holes predr illed.

Very super cool guys! My buddy and I have just discovered a games room with an old Ghostbusters pinball machine which we play every Friday after work. We are now looking into building a virtual pinball machine and you have definitely inspired us to do it! Thank you so much for sharing this very informative and fun video. Cheers from Moncton, New Brunswick Canada! Merry Christmas and Peace

O melhor vídeo sobre Pimball que assisti. Parabéns

Fantastic build! Thanks for sharing! I understand with Pinball FX3 you need to contact Steam for the code to change your viewing to a orginal looking playfield view. When using Future pinball and Virtual Pinball where do go to change the viewing for a realistic playfield view on the playfield monitor. Much appreciated! 🍻 Chris

Great build ! Enjoyed the commentary as well.

Great video and thanks for taking the time to produce it. I now have a new project for myself :)

Oh my God. I never knew I needed this until this very second.

This pinball is heavy as a Leopard 2 tank. Nice job

Outstanding. Love it

I used to build pin cabinets. Just some info., You can get real “lock down bars” for the front, backbox fold down hinges, and glass guides. Also, MDF crumbles easily. You should glue 1”x1” molding on the inside of the corners.

Thanks guys, I have started building my own and benefitted from some of your tips. Cool.

that was a fun build to watch.nice work!

Thank you for posting this video! It provided me with a great deal of motivation and instruction! Do you recall which size screws, drill bit, and countersink bit you used? Thanks again!

Wow! You guys did an amazing job on that build and you made it look easy(Which I know it isn't). I want to run out to garage and start building one of my own ;).

Nice video. It's cool that your MDF is black. The kind we have here is just regular wood colored.

Good Job....One of the best i've seen

I have wood, tools, computer, screens. Just the basics for now. Thanks to this video, I am not motivated to finally build my own.

Nice machine shop you have there guys...love that massive vise ! I am a machinist and we have a great shop but yours is even better...nice and clean :)

Like the details. Good job.

Awesome... now I definitly need to build my own ;-)

Wow, what a great video! Thank you!

Thats the best looking basement ever. I love Europe, everyone has an awesome basement bar !! awesome work on the pin ball machine too lol.

Excellent!

quite sick indeed

excellent job on building your own digital pinball machine

Great video and a great pinball you created! What thickness of Aluminium profile did you use to create the lockbar? Do it feel comfortable after playing for long so you would have preferred a real lockbar instead?

Thanks Guys for sharing this .... thanks a lot

very nice job Good budget too :) thank you

I want to see an upgrade video. Maybe put in a shaker motor and a nudge sensor? You could even show the plunger you were talking about.

Wow, very cool. I think I will try to build one but I don't think that it'll come out as well as yours.

Aren't worried the MDF won't like the beer as much as we do? Will the Williams legs accept the metric screws? Henning Wehn has been telling the world Germans do like a laugh but they only do it after the work is done: has he been lying all this time or you consider this activity more a form o leisure than work? Did you know pinball machines originated in Germany (afaik - icbw)? I really liked the real time video! I once saw a video about replacing SMD components - it was easy and so quick! It actually was hard and time consuming and I damaged the board ... 😮‍💨 Awesome video! Thanks!

Very good!

Awesome!

Beautiful work , I'm building a new one soon because my old one was tiny and got damaged during moving. I'll say one thing of all the builds I've watched everyone uses some pricey controller ....I just bought a broken xbox 360 controller for next to nothing and just soldered the buttons straight to the controller board and job done , I'm wondering am I missing out on anything though, is there any advantage to using a controller like the ipac 4 ?

Nice job! I want one...

hi, great table! your bam settings for ac/dc look perfect. can you please share your settings with me? thanks!!

for upcoming builders, there are markings inside of the legs so you know exactly where to put them ;)

Wow, such a cool video. I've just started with Visual Pinball X and hooked already. Would love to build a cabinet myself. Do you, by any chance, have a diagram for the mdf plates so that I know how to cut them?

Just ordered an ALP arriving soon and had no idea people were into Vpins and building them up to around 10 years ago until last month lol. Always late to the party.

I only discovered that people were building cabinets for pinball games yesterday. now I'm watching videos to find the best ideas for building this.

Thanks for sharing!

Very Nice Video!!! and its looks awesome. I was wondering how you got the aluminum side ledge onto the glass. what's the special tape or did you use like that locktight glue?

Gut gemacht Jungs....

Hab mal direkt eure Webseite in die Favoriten gespeichert und euch abonniert! Tolle Arbeit, Jungs! Der Flipper sieht echt gut aus und ihr könnt stolz sein! :) Mein Projekt ist ein Pinball-Cabinet mit Future Pinball - allerdings auf Ubuntu mit playonlinux! Wenn das fertig ist, kann ich mir einen Fahrsimulator oder eine Arcade-Maschine als nächstes Projekt vorstellen - mal sehen! Ich mag Rennspiele auch sehr gern und habe früher als Jugendlicher in der Pommesbude Flipper und Street Fighter II gespielt. Zocken mit Freunden und eine Pommes mit Currywurst oder Friko, waren schöne Zeiten!

Ausgezeichnet ! Prima ! Ich gratuliere Ihnen.

Bonita pinball!! Cuanto ha costado el proyecto? Gracias!! ❤️

Nice video and fun to watch. Take care now.

Excellent Video. Thanks for doing it in English!

It would be cool if you put links for hardware and software. also price points for each.

no 90 degrees desktop rotation? will be a nice idea for future updates because you will not have to turn around the table!

Awesome video. About to have an attempt at this myself despite being terrible at DIY! Question! How did you cut the holes for the DMD etc nice and straight?

great job!!!

Nice video, nice job. Just wondering why not install the display a little lower to create some depth in the cabinet like at mechanical machines to get a more realistic analog look? Also for protection of the screen, with on top a glass plate. I remember some people lean over or put there glass or beer can on top of the cabinet (accidentally) and this can scratch/damage the screen when there is no protection at all. Besides, you can also use some mirrors/metal/chrome like at the analog versions of these machines for a nice 50 style finish. When you create some depth in the cabinet, there is some 'room' to create an optional 3D version of it, with 3D glasses. That would be awesome. Just some ideas.

Hi guys! Really got inspired of this video and i am planning to build one too! Checked the parts list and i am curious about the aluminium ledges. Where did you use those in the video?

Good video!

Very Cool!!

i know this is old video did you ever add any exciters,Solenoids,shaker motor, or even bass shaker give that real pinball feel .

Respect!!!! Awesome!! But i have some questions, do you need something special to put 3 screens on your computer? And what kind of tv do you need for the 42 inch abouth the speed? Again respect what you did, kind regards from Belgium!

German Engineering and USA idea and Australian Rock = Awesome...... go build

Freaking a! You guys rock!

How difficult was it to get the three screens working on the Pin Cab? and where should I look for information on setting that up?

What kind of tape did you mask the backside of the acrylic for the top monitor with?

Im soooooooo jealous! Good job! I dont have the hands for do this!

Whoa, 22:34 spray painting too close. :) But everything else. Great. I'm so wanting to build one. And I moved and threw away a great old computer. :(

MDF (Medium Density Fiber) is always better than Particle board , it's easier to file and sand as opposed to OSB-board .

Super toll gemacht. Bin wirklich neidisch. Irgendwann tue ich es euch nach.

Sehr feines Video. Gut gemacht! Eine Frage hätte ich auch: welche Folie genau verwendet ihr, um die Ränder des Acrylglases abzudecken?

hey Would hear if you want to make a package of what you have system and games since I would like a copy of yours

Where would I be able to get design plans on how to build a pinball machine? Thanks!

I wanted to know how I can make this option to be able to choose several pimball, just like a fine game.

Hey guys, you forgot about holes for beer bottle on the lower corners in cabinet :) Great job!

What if I want my cabinet to be as big as an Ultra Widebody with an extra large DMD?

Sorry to ask, what is 3d stereoscopic tv ? Is there any spesific brand that can support stereoscopic tv ?

Lovely work. I wonder if you guys have done the following yet? 1)nudge/tilt input 2) BAM kit 3)force-feedback 4)cab artwork

Cool

Nice very nice

Hi guys... Well done with the pinball machine. Question regarding your screen connections to the pc... Are you running both tv's through seperate hdmi video cards and using the dmd screen straight off the motherboard? Does the dmd screen work with all of your tables and different front ends? How did you setup the screens? Any possible chance of a video as alot of us struggle with part and there is no videos explaining the computer side of the pinball build! Cheers Ryan

What kind of monitor did you use? 4K?

What type of TV IS? decription complete please.

that's some incredible nice work guys! From what part of germany are you?,i would love to see the pinball machine in real life, because i build arcade cabinet's my self and it is my dream to build a pinball cabinet. again great work and thank you for uploading this video!

What is the website to play the tables on PC pinzen?

Very nice, what cost is pinball box and what dmd screen you use monitor, tablet ??

where's the link for the plans?

Good.

Where can I get the plans and parts list?

What is that tool attachment bit that you use to make the bigger holes when you're drilling for where the screws will go? Any help is much appreciated.

What thickness was the plexiglass please? 10mm?

Where can I find a legit/safe copy of Hyperpin? I haven't been able to find it.

hi , can i ask what you used as lockbar ? I don't see it so good on the video .

yes
