Title: Gottlieb System 3 Glass sizes????
Post by: 55chev on July 30, 2012, 10:06:44 AM
Hi
I have got my System 3 Super Mario up and running..
My concern now is for the play-field and backboard Glass..
From an extensive search on the net most people reference the sizes 25'x20' x ? for back-glass and 21'x43' x 3/16 toughened ..
I did measure them for myself but my dimensions are way out compared to the above
                         my measurement      =    ( 1105 x 555 and 640 x 500)
 21'x43' & 25'x20'  converted to metric  =    ( 1092 x 533 and 635 x 508)

I am thinking the imperial sizing is correct but i believe in the old motto  "measure twice cut once" :)

My local glazier is happy to order any size i want .. I just want to be 100% sure before i order..

Are these sizes correct for my machine ?
