Poker to Ultracade conversion any Suggestions?
Skeptic73:
SO I USED THE TRUCK BEDLINER BLACK AND IT CAME OUT SMOOTH, NICE FINISH. I'LL HAVE TO TRY IT AGAIN WHEN I BUILD A CONTROL PANEL FOR THE CABINET AND A TOP FOR A MARQUEE. I WANT TO ADD A TRACKBALL AND IVE GOT BAGS OF PARTS PLENTY OF BUTTONS AND JOYSTICKS TO POPULATE A PANEL. ILL WAIT UNTIL SPRING WHEN THE WEATHER IS WARM. THE WIFE WONT ALLOW ANY PROJECTS IN THE HOUSE WITH A SEVEN MONTH OLD CRAWLING AROUND. THE OTHER DAY I WENT AROUND THE CORNER FOR FIVE SECONDS AND SHE CRAWLED OVER AND PUT A SCREW IN HER MOUTH. THAT AND I HAVE TO PAINT OUT DOORS, THAT STUFF STINKS!
BadMouth:
The chrome & black look nice. I knew the bedliner work well. ;)
Some chrome t-molding on the x-arcade would make it look more integrated if you wanted to go to the time & expense.
Of course, not as good as a custom CP.
I think a plexi bezel over the whole monitor area with artwork on it would look good & eliminate the need for a marquee.
(kinda like space invaders, but with less room at the top)

Yeah, I have some spare chrome and was considering it but Im going to save it for when I build my own panel. Ive been trying to find Williams classic multigame art or something else that went with the gamepacks I have installed. Ultracade art is impossible to find. Im happy its just together and out of the garage for now.

How did you end up mounting the X-arcade?

that looks like it will be nice sit down cab. I like the small size and shape. Def build your own panel. Theres really nothing to it. :burgerking:
