This is looking great. I'd love to build one of these after I finish any one of mine. I wish I had such open access to scart TVs here in America. |
| MaxRod:
would love to have the sketchup if its available. |

Having said that Arcade monitors and dedicated Arcade Machines seem to be a lot more common and cheaper over in the states than over here. I'd swap Scart TVs for cheap dedicated machines any day ;D --- Quote from: MaxRod on February 23, 2017, 02:30:10 pm ---would love to have the sketchup if its available. --- End quote --- I'll stick the sketch up model on the 3D warehouse when its finished. Reason being is that not all of the measurements are correct. If you look at my latest video, I had to redo a section on the back because I'd eyeballed it wrong. Hopefully once its finished all of the measurements will be correct. |

Hello again :laugh: This project is now finally complete. It's only taken about 10 years! The Pac-Man has been sitting empty with all of the internals in boxes for the last 3 or 4 years ready for painting which I never did, until now. I set myself a challenge of completing it before the end of the summer and I did! A brief summary of whats in the cab: It has an original Pac-Man PCB that has had a "Pacman Multigame Free Play and High Score Save Kit" installed (details of that board here: https://highscoresave.com/pacman-ms-pacman-multigame-free-play-and-high-score-save-kit) A Wico stick A restored Midway coin door A 13/14 inch CRT. Albeit a TV using RGB scart. I actually have a spare monitor that is the right size now which I might swap in at some point A new old stock control panel overlay Repro artwork (might get front and side art resized from a full size cab eventually) Went for Yellow paint instead of wood grain vinyl. Spray paint was a mistake though. I got a good finish in the end but it took ages. Should have used a roller. I've uploaded a video to Youtube with some more pictures and videos of it working here: Here is a link to the latest Sketchup model of the cab: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nSsSfb9xi9P0gFC0-l__7d21OTenpitp/view NOTE: The model is a little out of date. The "ears" of the cabinet are much smaller on the finished machine so they could do with trimming down on the model and the bottom vents were re-done mid project and I don't have the measurements on me at the moment. I can update the model at a later date. Some pictures of the finished cab below: |
