Filtek is in WA. Dunno what their pricing is like:

[edit] Check their "Junkyard" link. There's a few empty shells in there. [/edit]

Another guy from Perth! I think that makes the two of us and maybe one other guy :D. I had visited filtek once, and it seemed like an allright kinda place. The "junkyard" has a heap of arcades - I even saw a two car seater sit down cab. Keep in mind though that I do not think they were protected very well. If my memory serves me correct, they were stored under a carport. If you are thinking of buying buttons from there too just take a look at them before you buy. I almost bought some but the "skirts" around the button were slightly different for different coloured buttons as well as the depth of the dimple.

Good luck!

Thanks, I'll check out Filtek with a critical eye.

Nice to hear from another Perth member D5A1AC
i checked out your page and i really like what you've done so far

I actually managed to snap up an empty lai lowboy from ebay a few months ago, only $20 and it was only down the road in malaga.

i've told a mate of mine all about my project and now he want's one too, which is why i'm after another shell.

i've attached a pic of my (very much) work in progress setup (pretty unimpressive i know) - basically i wanted it playable asap, and i'm slowly moving it towards it's true potential

D5A1AC:
Nice cab! I was thinking of going for a black-red-black 3X2 button layout (the same as yours bar the 7th button and I'll use ball-top Jsticks) And after seeing your cab I'm sure that I will now :D

It's interesting that you decided to get it working before finishing it - I've gone for the exact opposite approach. I have the PC set up and whatnot but the arcade buttons/joysticks are going to be the last thing I buy because If I were able to play it I'd never get time to finish it!
