Hello guys! My name is Joe and after nearly 3 years of planning, designing and building, my build is ready to share with everyone.






THANK YOU BYOAC!

First off, I would like to say a special thank you to everyone here at the BYOAC forums.  Although this is my first post, I have been lurking here for years gathering ideas and checking out everyone's custom cabinets.  Whenever I had a question about something I knew I could find the answer here.  So when I say I couldn't have done it with out you guys, its the truth!  So thank you very much!

So I read some of your links. So the extra screens are there so you can watch yourself play your games?

He is really pimping out this set up... His website has T-shirts and Decals for sale. He is on Twitter, Twitch, Stich, Youtube, Facebook, and Instagram. This is it! He is going to make this a career or die trying!

Oh, I’m not a fan of it at all, but if it’s what he wanted, he at least did a nice job putting it together. I can’t fault the craftsmanship.

Maybe the two extra screens are for making games look 4:3 when he’s stretching the image to 16:9..?

Ok, serious question - why 3 screens?

I started with just the one screen but after we decided to start streaming I added a second so I could keep an eye on the livestream and viewer comments. After adding the second it didn't really look right so the third screen was added so we could watch the ball game, some wrestling or a movie.

Oh my god.... Does that thing make Coffee as well?

Lol not yet but not a bad idea..

He is really pimping out this set up... His website has T-shirts and Decals for sale. He is on Twitter, Twitch, Stich, Youtube, Facebook, and Instagram. This is it! He is going to make this a career or die trying!

It's worth a shot. If no one cares or watches no big deal. We still have a great time! I make all the shirts and decals myself so it doesn't cost me too much and I enjoy doing it.

I think I am going to puke. I need some bourbon.

I love bourbon! I'm from KY so we know good bourbon. If you're ever in the area let me know and we'll drink some and play some games. My treat! That goes for any of you guys. I'm always looking for players and I enjoy the competition!

You also... added eyeballs to the Turtles?

Yeah I never cared for the way the turtles looked on the original cabinet. Thought they looked menacing or something lol. I took a few liberties with the artwork in a couple spots but I think it looks ok. You guys really don't like it?

By the way, your craftsmanship is outstanding. I will give you credit for that.

Thank you for that.

The thing is cool... but wow. I can't get over it. He didn't angle the joysticks... so he did plan this thing out pretty well. I too am not to keen on the turtle eyeballs. lol

Not angling the joysticks was something I learned here on the forum. This was my first ever build so the information available here was invaluable. Thanks again!

Why do you have so many speakers packed into that thing?

I'm a car audio guy. I like it loud and low. I had the extra speakers so I figured why not. The subwoofers do add a nice rumble effect to many of the games especially fighters. You can feel when you take a hit. I also use the arcade for music at times.

I guess the subwoofer placement is perfect for porn. The bass is aimed straight at your junk.

You are my new best friend. My staple bourbon is Blanton's. Freakin' John Wick ruined it for awhile. I had to buy it by the case when I could find it.
Buffalo Trace is good when I have guests.

A few things.

Craftmanship  :applaud:

  • You don't need 7 buttons for players 3 and 4
  • Replace those cabinet doors and add a kickplate
  • subs should of went on the back with grills, bass bouncing off the back wall would of sounded better
  • since your a car audio guy highly surprised you didn't go with 2 mid speakers mounted in acylic backlit or edgelit, in the middle could of been a TNMT marquee for the upper section where the 4 speakers are currently, or i would have put the 4 speakers under the control panel, and dropped the coin door down a little, that would of opened up a full backlit marquee fo the upper section

Also if your twitching, wouldn't you want to show the game or is the idea just to show yourself playing?  Might be me, but watching TV while playing would seem kinda distracting.  I'd of just went with like a 40" screen, and left the twitching and the movie watching for another day.

They look super creepy.


You don't need more than 4 buttons for players 3 and 4

FTFY change the 4 to a 3 if you don't play the 2 dungeons and dragons CPS2 games.
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

I guess the subwoofer placement is perfect for porn. The bass is aimed straight at your junk.

You are my new best friend. My staple bourbon is Blanton's. Freakin' John Wick ruined it for awhile. I had to buy it by the case when I could find it.
Buffalo Trace is good when I have guests.

Lol! Blantons is good stuff. Recently opened a bottle of Michaels 10 Year and it's excellent!

ArcadeKnightz - you seem like a cool dude taking the criticism in stride.  Definitely not my thing (to each their own) but you did a great job putting it together.   :cheers:

Thanks man. I'm cool with the constructive criticism but there's always gonna be some people that want to bring you down for one reason or another. I've learned to just ignore those people. Not worth my time. I'd rather be working on my next build. :cheers: to you as well!

I will have to give Michael's a spin. Thanks.
