Bartop attempt(Now 2-players)
BurgerKingDiamond:
Why weren't you able to use the CRT. That would have been sweet.

thanks. Seeing your bartop really got me inspired again. I'm hoping to mount the speakers on the marquee and put the decased PC on a pull-out drawer for access in the back.

this is the seller I bought the vinyl from. Again it's a bit thin but does the job. He has different sizes available.

:dizzy: I'm going for a more lighter bartop. I still might have some use for that CRT (since someone donated like 3 or 4 of them). My basement looks like a pawn shop, so many parts stacked all over the place.
;D

Even with a busy Thanksgiving weekend, I was able to do a little work on the bartop. Here's what I got done today. Mounted the roof with the fancy (;D) fan grill cover, cut out the draw base/face and mounted draw hindges. Also i was able to cut out marquee plexi. The reason I wanted a pull out draw was in case I needed to access the PC motherboard or components. ???
BobA:
Nice to see your progress. The pull out door looks handy for your motherboard mount. :applaud:

Been a long time since I updated. (not finished :angry:) but there has been plenty of progress. For one I thought about making the bartop a 2-player which only made sense, I mean who wants to play street fighter against the PC anyway. So I cut the front of the CP off and build a new 2-player control panel. also found some alien fan grills which I used as speaker grills. Let me know what you think.
