not to much happening as been working flat out but ordered some stuff last night from arcade world UK which i didn't know is the same company as gremlin solutions?
I've ordered
1 x IL S10 Coin Mechanism
(Denomination: UK 10p)
1 x Translucent Arcade Start Button
(Player: 1 + 2 Set, Colour: White)
1 x Illuminated Arcade Joystick
(Colour: Blue)
3 x Translucent Arcade Button
(Colour: Blue)
2 x Translucent Arcade Button
(Colour: White)
1 x Barrel Lock And Key Set
1 x Mini Coin Door
and 24ft of white 3/4 t-molding
i was going to order it from t-molding.com with the slot cutter and arbor that came to $42 but the shipping was another $50!(total £62)
i tried wealdon tools here in the UK as they stock a 1.5mm slot cutter but this was out of stock
i rung them today and they have another router bit that does the same thing,that with the arbor and bearing was £32 delivered and it'll be here next day
ill be using a minipac I've got i didn't want to but its not doing anything it just looks messy compared to a ipac I'm not keen on the ply so its gong to be made out of 18mm mdf no idea of name yet not to sure of colour i might use some coloured vinyl on it instead of paint,I'm thinking like the vinyls they use to wrap cars,they've got a huge range of colours and patterns available
i reduced the ms pacman plans by 28% so the highest point was 120cm so i can get both sides out of one sheet of mdf i did a quick one out of ply to get a idea as to how small its going to be I'm not sure on the shape i might modify it a bit or just go for a totally one off design i quite like the donkey kong cab and the galaga shape
ive got a 19" flat screen an old pc,speakers,tools etc all i need now is some time
