How to assemble your virtual pinball cabinet

Episode#12 Custom Virtual Pinball Cabinet Build

In this video I will be teaching you how to assemble your virtual pinball cabinet. I will also be teaching you how to properly install pocket hole screws, make glue blocks, make the 45 degree corner braces, and what things you need to avoid hitting/blocking when you attach your glue blocks. I am using the Kreg pocket hole jig system but any pocket hole system will work and if you don't want to use pocket hole screws, you can still learn a lot from this video. All great stuff for anyone looking to make their very own custom virtual pinball cabinet from scratch!

I have also created timestamps so you can jump to the part/info you need.
