Metal Slug Lowboy *new update*
XNIF:
I just ordered the first stuff for my first (lowboy) build. After long reading (this forum and "the holy book") i've now finally done it.
I've ordered a minipac kit from Gremlin Solutions. And this weekend i'm gonna get a 25" trinitron tv (with scart) and the MDF.
The high pressure laminate will come when the MDF is turned in a cabinet :cheers:
I'm using the lowboy from RXII ( http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=68962.0 ) as a reference. However it's gonna be different in a lot of ways. I'm using HPL like i said for some nice art on the side and the CP. I really liked the Street fighter cabinet from here, i wanna do the same for my lowboy in a Metal Slug theme. This SF cabinet: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=84649.0
I'll keep you posted !
A strange thing happened when i placed my order, i started to sweat and shake ! Is this normal, or is this the feeling of an addiction comming? :lol

Just a small update:
Got my package from gremlin! It look great. I will make some pictures later today. Just to get more colour in my postings :)
This weekend i picked up a Sony Trinitron flattube CRT 25". I want to connect this with a VGA -> RGB scart cable i am going to make. I am not completely sure about how to proceed here... i want to run PC games and Mame with soft 15 khz.
Things to find out:
* Can i set in the frontend to use mame with soft 15khz and normal pc games without?
* Will soft 15khz work with a 9800GTX or a 8800GT (those i have here on the shelf)
will post pics later.
saleem:
take a bit of advice,when you cut your panels for the cab,sides,front etc laminate them before you put it together.far easier to do and better to handle this way.

Little update with the pics!
The kit I ordered from Gremlin with 18 buttons
The buttons, orange and yellow, the idea is to also use orange T-molding:
The PCB and the harness, thank god i have a harness. Soldering those wires would take forever:
Big-ass 25" sony trinitron for 25 euro(32 dollar):
