So not only has Scott Danesi posted about using system 11 flipper mechs with EOS switches for doing your layout:

But also this guy's page:

Now granted, this does not give you any control over flipper power, you can't have delayed gobble holes, but if you're JUST trying to get your playfield laid out I agree this is really the best way. You don't have to deal with a computer booting, loading code, it's just direct power from switch to flipper. I figure this will also eliminate any excuses. There's no reason I can't wire up 3 flippers to my power supply
So even though I have flipper mechs (which I can use on my next project), I went ahead and bought three of these flipper assemblies, plus an auto plunger mech from pinball life (picking it up this friday). The auto plunger exists on pinballmakers.com, however I noticed nobody has really modeled up a flipper mech so I'm probably going to do that and upload it.
