Heres a sneek peek of my newest cab. Outside, control panel, monitor, marquee, sidewinder hack interface all done. It still needs a coin lock, speakers and a PC.
I'm doing a PC upgrade to my main cab and I'm moving that PC into this cab. The new PC is almost done, I just need to go get a hard drive tommorrow and load it up.
I used a t-stick on a 3/8 panel with 1/8 plexi. I like how it feels in my test playing in 4 way mode. I can reach in through the coin door to switch it to 8 way. I used a sidewinder hack for the interface. I fried the first PCB trying to solder it so I had my brother do the soldering on the secound one. It ain't pretty but all the buttons are working and I have all the inputs I wanted plus an extra.
