javeryh:
Badass. Really nice job.
Drnick:
superb work. I like that you obviously moved it around the house to show how it would look in different locations, Looks classy in all of them, but I like the first location, Ties in with the wall art :)
Nephasth:
Wow, this has been since May?
Unstupid:
Dude... There is a girl playing in your machine... You are going to be like a hero too all these noobs! :D
Nice machine... About your marquee... Is it actually viewable or is it just the camera that makes it look all washed out?

Thanks for the kind comments, much appreciated.
@Player 3 - Coin Mech - Put coin in the top slot, if accepted it falls through the mech, sends credit signal and coin drops into the internal coin box below. If the coin is rejected it is returned out of the lower slot. If a coin gets jammed, turn the reject lever and the coin is returned out of the lower slot. These mechs are available on ebay. This model only accepts one type of coin at a time, you put a 'sample' coin in the mech, and it compares all coins entered to this 'credit' coin.
There is a better model made by the same people which I have also, where you can program it to accept different coins and give pulses/credits depending on which coin has been deposited.
@Drnick - yep, that evening did involve a bit of shuffling the living room around but I think it was worth it for the photos. Really happy with how they came out.
@Nephasth - the photos were taken in May yes, but the arcade was finished again about 2 months previous to this as it lived in the workshop for a short time.
@Unstupid - marquee - yes it's the camera that makes it look all washed out. There isn't a lot of contrast between the white gloss front perspex with the letters cut out and the rear frosted white perspex, plus the brightness of the 100 LEDs make it a tricky one to photograph. I originally had a third LED strip in there too (so an extra 50) but this was a bit overkill and the two strips give a good even diffusion.
