Galaga Bartop2 Completed 7/20/2011

(1/8) > >>

BobA:
Cut out a couple more of these bartops.   Went alot faster since I already had the template from my first one.   Going to build one with an unmentionable board in it and the other with the guts from a PC to see which I like better.  May put more buttons on the PC version so it will have more versatility.  The first all in one only had 2 player buttons. One will be jamma and the other will be a regular PC build.

Picture of completed game added.

Very nice BobA  :cheers: Watching with interest!

BobA:
Picked up a new power controller at Wallymart for $20 Canadian.  It has one master, 2 switched and 1 always on outlet.  It also has a lifetime warranty and insurance for $100,000 if equipment is damaged by a power surge or spike.  Going to try it out in the PC bartop I am building.

There are 2 outlets on the side that you cannot see.

Before you get too far, I would like to suggest you try to mount the speakers coming from the bottom and use some feet to lift it off the ground.

I liked your last bartop minus that one detail.

BobA:
Leapinlew.  Good idea!   :applaud: :applaud: I have already raised the bottom 5/8 of and inch so the tmolding will not have to be cut to get around the bottom screws.   I can mount a speaker down there and save the cost of a grill.  On second thought I guess I need some sort of protection so someone doesn't stick a finger thru the speaker cone.
