Galaxian Mame Conversion
theCoder:
Very nice. Good luck on the paint job.
ARTIFACT:
cool project! I love the galaxian cab
good luck with the paint
I'm still waiting for my black semi-gloss latex enamel paint to fully dry / harden (1 week later) ... that stuff can take time... humidity doesn't help right now
that is one fun hobby we have guys! ;)

Minor update this weekend:
- Priming will hopefully be done by night's end. Unexciting pics of a white cab to follow if true.
- Buttons, Trackball, and joysticks have all been ordered. Boy, that adds up quick! I plan to bling the CP with GGG lighting modules.
Left to buy:
- T-Molding (going with leather black on this) <-- Suggestions on where to purchase?
- Reproduction Coin Door inserts, ThisOldGame
- Reproduction Coin Door Midway plate, hopefully ThisOldGame
- Reproduction Back Midway Badge, ThisOldGame
- Vinyl Artwork, looking like Scott's the only one who's going to be able to come through on this
- Neon lighting accents for under cab and behind rear vents for backwash
- Tempered gray glass
This being said, I've created a photoshop mockup of my color/lighting scheme. I didn't like alien green molding.. blue was a bit distracting.. then I tried chrome, and that felt tacky. I also tossed up green vs. blue neon. I think blue was more pleasing. Here's the outcome. Opinions welcome.

Best place I could find for my cabinet was: http://www.dreamarcades.com/partstmold/index.shtml
25 feet for $10.99 or $35.99 for 100 feet.
Level42:
Got mine from arcadeshop.com, 10 bucks per game. It's exactly enough for the cab...
Have also ordered with www.t-molding.com.
I vote against the neon, but that can hardly surprise you...... :laugh:
