Rubber band switches

 

These switches are like the targets used to score points. Any rubber between 2 pins can be used for this switch.

You can see one on the right side, between the red pins and behind the dodgy rubber band.

This switch is a variant of the target switch and the below playfield part is the same.

It uses a longer metal spring compared to the target. The blue part is the rubber band. Grey is the spring steel lever.
