amadama:
I really love this machine. Your daughter is going to be the luckiest little girl in town (both for getting such a great gift and for having such a great parent!!)

Thanks a lot! It has been a blast to build (probably more fun for me than actually playing it if you can believe that) but I am definitely the lucky one to have a daughter like Bella. :cheers:

I guess I'm going to keep a running list of what I need to do in order to finish - I have to keep pushing forward because I have to have this thing completely finished by the end of June. There are still a bunch of minor things I have to do:
1. Cut hole in back of the cabinet and install the exterior plug
2. Splice new plug to SmartStrip
3. Wire the computer power button to a button on the cabinet somewhere [back?]
4. Apply the side art
5. Make a bezel out of black posterboard/matteboard and install
6. Wire the coin door
7. Install feet for the cabinet so it doesn't mar the floor
8. Install and configure the computer
9. Miscellaneous touch-up work
I am fairly certain that most of this can be completed in an afternoon - hopefully this weekend. The only part I anticipate having trouble with is the configuration of the computer. Anyway, I'm still going to write up the installation of the marquee and control panel along with the other finishing stuff but I couldn't resist posting a sneak peek at what the finished cabinet will look like (minus the bezel, obviously). Enjoy!

So...Ummm... when are the stunningly detailed pdf file instructions going to be available? ;D I got about three years before I need this machine, so you have a while. ;)

Jav, I might seriously reconsider the Aussie lowboy for one of these, so you may not have *that* much time to deliver the plans :P
:cheers: to the cab! It's a work of art.
