So the "adventure" continues.
After getting the 2 Golden Tees working, and dropping one off at my friends, I was left with a pretty banged up 3rd cabinet, no working electronics, and a solid cabinet riser. After evaluating all of the remains, I decided it was time to put that ancient gaming PC that has been sitting in the garage for the last 10+ years to use. Going to go vertical screen (I have several 19" Dell monitors sitting around
http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,165040.0.html), 4 way joystick, 2 buttons, and maybe a spinner for Arkanoid and Tempest? (on the fence on that)
Playing with Attract Mode FE for the first time
Cut a new CP out of scrap 3/4 plywood I have sitting around and followed the lines of the original with a router later on
This is the riser
And put the cab back together after cutting some new support brackets out of the scrap in the garage
I am going to get rid of all the IT and Golden Tee graphics. Not sure what theme I'm going with yet, but there are plenty to choose from for these A1Up cabs.
Side note, I have yet to grow tired of the Golden Tee. I fire it up daily, and still have not moved it to the game room (unfortunately less frequently used) from the living room.
