But I really do not like the looks of the plastic frame on an arcade cabinet, it just puts me off on the whole experience. --- End quote --- To each their own. Personally, I owned a woody and a candy cab and like my candy cab a lot more. Not only is the screen better (29" dual vs 25" 15k only) but the space is much better managed (huge bonus for big city living!!!) P.s. the cab is not plastic. Doors are all metal, body is fiberglass .. Made same as the hull of a boat! |

I not knocking it at all, I would love that thing :cheers: Thanks for clarifying what the body is made of. Bigger screen is definitely a plus too. |

Update: I tracked down a working chassis for the d9200 so hopefully that will bring it to life. I also ordered new 5575 locks and keys, a new blast city 2L12B control panel and screws, green/pink Seimitsu LB-35 balltops and green/pink Seimitsu PS-14-GN buttons, yellow Seimitsu PS-14-DN start buttons. I’m going with the stock 2 player six button green/pink layout. I chose Seimitsu parts as I read they are less sensitive than Sanwa but more sensitive than the Happs that I am used too. I also could get the solid color screw-in Seimitsu buttons from Japan, can’t seem to easily find them in the states. The joysticks will be two Ultrastik 360s with standard springs and octagonal restrictors. I made a fighter stick with this configuration and it works well for me. I recently ordered everything so I am waiting for the parts to arrive. By acquiring these parts, plus $hipping, the budget just went way up, but it should turn out nice. I already got a non-working bill validator to fill the hole in the service door. I’ve joined some candy cab related forums but I feel most comfortable sharing over here 8) I have some tricks planned for power management and front-end control buttons. PS: No new pictures as I made a deal with myself. I can’t work on breaking down and cleaning up the cabinet until I clean my apartment from top to bottom and setup my office/game room. Motivation. |

| dgame:
The locks are on the service door, on the coin mechanism door, under the control panel, and on the coin box. The coin box lock is probably keyed differently from the others. |
