LOL. I'm glad you asked. I thought I might be the only guy that has no idea what that means.

Sorry guys, I was just being facetious. Your graphics are top notch.

Just a few small things to tidy up.

Paint and install the the marquee holders.

Sync up the controls to the instructions.

Then reluctantly pull the PC and install and xboxone, the Brooks boards are on the way.

Its been fun, probably be the last one for awhile, gonna take a break.  Gonna take it to the Texas Pinball Festival in March to showcase.

Gah.... So wide... 8 buttons...those speakers make me think cup holders.....


So good though man, a unique build worthy of the game.

Whats wide?

8 buttons yes, been through that conversation alot, played a guy last night on it thats pretty good at MKX and has built fight sticks.  He approved the layout and confirmed playing that game on that layout is easier than the standard MK layout.

You have to see/play it in person cupholder are the last thing you would ever think about.  Got raves on the sound quality.

The 8 buttons are fine bro, because you know why? The game it is meant to play supports them.

I'm just saying it goes against my taste but is still very good, and you can tell the sound is bumpin even on your youtube vids.  It is probably one of your best builds.

All BS aside, everyone who commented on this thread is well respected in my book, every comment was taken into serious consideration with the design and end result.

Shoutout to Pauly Barnes as well, his graphic design was asked about the whole show.

Thanks to all the forum homies for helping inspire this creation.

Congrats on best in show at Dallas TPF! The cabinet looks great.  Shame you sold it though since I was hoping you'd bring it to the Houston Arcade Expo.  I really wanted to bring my NASA cabinet to TPF this year but family medical situations got in the way.  Maybe next year! I should be at the Houston show though.

Congrats again on the build!

Re: MKX Dedicated CAB - CNC Design stage
« Reply #229 on: September 05, 2018, 05:05:23 pm »
Finished one full sheet of the 3/4 MDF 3 to go.



The front panel w/ dragon will have either white or clear plexi behind it with light behind it.

The sides will be black lettering on white vinyl lit as well, so there will be cutout with a 1/4" recess for the plexi to sit.  I'm trying to decide whether to light that from behind or use the glow from behind the front panel, similar to Ond's design.








Anyway to get the CNC plans on this?
