What bartop kits are available?
« on: August 21, 2012, 08:59:56 am »
I live in the US, and I'm planning on putting together a bartop.  I was considering a kit to save me the hassle of building (plus I'd have to buy all the tools).  I want it to be two player.  What kits are available?

Here's some I found (some are from overseas)

I like the look of this one the most, but it's ridiculously expensive (about $315 shipped): http://www.tinyarcademachines.com/

Cheaper, even with the overseas shipping (probably about $165): http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ARCADE-MACHINE-BARTOP-MACHINE-MAME-2-PLAYER-DIY-FLATPACK-/160867332650?_trksid=p4340.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222002&algo=SIC.FIT&ao=1&asc=11&meid=1474352174858284076&pid=100011&prg=1005&rk=1&&fb_source=message#shId

Turnarcades kit (About $157 before shipping I think.  I don't know if they ship overseas): http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=398441263552720&set=pb.100001605484104.0.1345552932&type=3&theater

This is close to me (I live in NY), but I'm not loving the look of it: http://emdkay.net/catalog/player-bartop-arcade-cabinet-jamma-mame-console-p-128.html


There's the X-Arcade one too, which I don't like
 Does Northcoast custom Arcades do 2-player cabs?

If you know what you want and have plans, I could build one for you.

I'd probably have to tweak it a little, but how about something like this: http://i46.tinypic.com/104kmbr.png

It's very close to what I want

Good link. I had never looked for that, so i had never found or seen the plans before.  I'll send you a PM when I figure it out.  Shipping will be a ---smurfette--- though
