I am leaving a raspberry pi with the default software and the timezone
fixed for now, on a 16 GB SD card, but it needs to be rebuilt with quite
a bit of software not installed. I am also leaving a screw mountable usb
magnet strip card reader that is screw mountable.

Sounds good, though I don't need it now. If you leave it in the
machine with whatever software you want on it, I'll start hacking on
software for it.

I'll be happy to take a crack at that, I need to work on cutter/CNC

Speaking of that, if anybody has any recommendations (tutorials,

Awesome! What we need really isn't all that complicated, as long as
it fits, looks cool, and has convenient places to bolt a Pi and maybe
power supply. We're going to need to run all the ethernet and power
cables along the bottom of the vending machine's doors, so we can open
it without ripping a bunch of wiring out.
I've gotten the button panel wired up and connected to terminals in a
vaguely sane fashion, including the power wires someone so
inconsiderately snipped off. It might still need ground wiring, I
don't know? It looks like the buttons pull low when closed, but
honestly I didn't test it that much... I'd appreciate it if someone
who knows what they are doing looked at it.
Thanks,
Simon
