Well, I have a control panel. It, has no carriage bolts (the carriage bolts are used to hold down the cpo to the wood). Does anyone know where I can find these?  Huh?

Can't speak specifically to the control panel but I was looking for the coin door carriage bolts a few months ago and didn't have any success at local hardware stores. Not sure if the ones in the control panel are as uncommon a size. From what I found when researching the coin door ones, most people seemed to recommend Ace Hardware (though the Ace I tried didn't have what I needed).

Yo, Chris!! Glad you made it here.

Yeah, Ace Hardware is GREAT for oddball nuts and bolts. The one by me has bins full of hard to find screws and nuts. I got there constantly.

Thanks. I've actually been registered here since 2011, although just realized this is my first time posting. .

Too funny! This forum has been pretty active lately since I redid it. Hopefully you stick around! Cheesy

It dose not look like there on his site, or for sale anymore. I have looked before too, never have saw them.  Undecided

Thanks! They have the coin door ones I had been looking for too. Ones I have are a bit rusty and scuffed up (and one bolt is actually bent).

Sweet, guys! I have ordered from Arcade Boneyard a few times. No problems. He is a bit of a controversial dealer as he blatantly strips games to sell the parts. BUT, he has saved my ass a few times. It looks like these bolts are new, though. Smiley

I've stumbled upon his site once before but was turned away by its appearance. Looks a bit sketchy.

Wish all arcade part dealers would use Amazon for distribution. Hate having to send emails, mail checks, or pay shipping for these things.

Yeah, I don't think you have to worry about him at all. He doesn't have a bad reputation for screwing people.

Cool. I just mean in general. Feel like it's such an inconvenience to order from most arcade sites.
