Cheers buddy. Playing bubble bobble on a 52" screen is quite the experience i tell you :)

The three tubes (only one connected in photo) just are used to run the wires to and from the CP (power and monitor signal).

Well i called Filtek and they don't keep empties anymore. Any other ideas? Otherwise i'll be building from scratch :P

Haven't been on the forum for a while...again. Screw this illness stuff!!! Hopefully will be back into the arcade madness soon... health is a priority at the moment.

Just quickly though. For the Perth lads asking questions, your best bet for cabs is the Quokka unfortunately. Filtek's workshop has been closed for little while and their junkyard hasn't really been around for about 3 years. The Quokka usually only has full working machines however. Most of these aren't worth more than $300..so their usually overpriced. WA based ebay auctions would be your next bet. I have only 1 gutted LAI lowboy left and my mate has dibs on it (I'm doing a mame conversion for him).

Following that (as I do), build them from scratch. Plenty of plans on Jakobuds site and other areas. A search of the BYOAC forum will reveal all you need.

If you need parts and your located in Perth, just ask me. I've priced and bought from within Perth, Aus and overseas, comparing quality and price. Until prices come down here in Aus, overseas is your best bet for 70% of the main parts..for quality and price.

Good luck.

yeh what spriggy said.

Next week im placing an order for some illuminated pushbuttons that looks bloody awesome. The website is www.fxbuttons.com and they are located in the US (he's on this forum too but cant remember his name)

If any1s keen on some in perth, they can tack their order on the end of mine and we can split the postage. They are very very nice
