1UP Arcade is planning to sell full kits and cabinets!

I really like your cabinet because it actually looks like a classic cabinet (specifically it looks like you mated a Defender with a Centipede and then let Mr. and Ms. Pac-Man raise the resulting child).

The only thing I DON'T like is the large gap between monitor and control panel, but I could live with that since that is what makes the rotation control panels possible.

Also, did you know that most of my real life friends are familiar with your cabinet, and we regularly make jokes about insane things to do to top yours (which usually leads to insane ideas like "flip out STUN Runner motorcycle", "retractable dance pad", and "pop out skateboard", and "Final Furlong ride-on horse").

I of course could never afford to buy one of your kits or completed cabinets, but it looks really cool. Yes, I know I have a huge collection, but I have largely just CONSTANTLY traded and resold games, and don't actually have much cash invested in my collection. I have also been very blessed to have receieved a total of 11 different cabinets in the sub $25 range.

Hey--good luck on your venture!--I'm not going to have to pay a royalty fee every time I play mine now though am I?   ;D It may not resemble your cab but the trademark panel is there--I just hope you don't have any RIAA lawyers over there ;)  

You should also formally request that all those who have a copy of your plans --namely the free ones (I do, and I even put the control panel in cad) do not distribute--might save you the hassle of tracking down some unscrupulous e-bayer.

Good luck 1UP.  Your rotating cp really inspired me.  Many happy returns.  1HookedSpaceCadet

Good luck 1up. Your cab was one of the first I saw when I got interested in my hobby, and I was thinking of a rotating CP for my next cab.  Of course, my first one isn't even close to done yet...... but I digress

Good luck and here's to hoping you can keep costs down and still make a profit (cuz maybe then I can afford to buy a kit :) )

There is another purpose too, as I finally got my backsplash artwork printed--it's a good place to put some instructions!  The finished cabs will feature instruction stickers for switching the panels and running the FE in that area.
