Two monitor Full Size Vigolix.
« on: March 06, 2023, 12:15:30 pm »
I love how this full size vigolix came out. I added a second monitor at the bottom to use for marquee and games like punch out. It looks so nice. To bad it wasnt for me, it was a for a friend of mine. But after i finish my mancave, ill build one for my self. Sorry, no construction pics, this one i cutted by hand even though cnc services prices here are next to nothing. So the cabinet has alot of imperfections. You cant actually see them unless you are a very very observative person.
Te reason i didnt put the second monitor at top is because of it thickness, but i think it looks good there too.

Nice build  8)

Just wondering if a single large widescreen tv/monitor in portrait mode would have worked better instead of the 2 monitors, i made a vertical bartop last year, does pinball as well, uses coinops as the frontend, Mame games displays the marquee on the same screen.

You need to raise that bottom monitor an inch.  It looks weird.
