Plans, well, I loosly designed it like the mameroom designs one, but after I had it on my counter, I relized i didnt need the depth,with the lcd, so i actually took it apart and cut it. I can take any measurments you need, but it mostly just went togeather a few times and I made a few modifications where I needed to. although not too many were necessary, thats the beauty, I can just say I ment to make it like that. I am really disapointed with myself for not takeing too may pics as I was building, I will definatly do that next time. Timoe, yes it is a Sanwa, I had 2 laying around for a few years, and I actually tried to use a t stick, but my daghter much prefered the jstick, I do as well. i will get some pics of the cp and guts, its kinda a mess in there, but it all works. I do have to add that I thought the tmolding was harder to install then I thought, and that inside corner was a pain. |

Here are a few pics I just snapped. shot of the cp. messy side another Back guts sound on the right, not as nice as an external control, but I didnt want to get cute with this my first scratch cabinet. notice the L brackets holding in the monitor it is routed out so it sits in the hole it wasnt easy bit I think it looks nice on the finished side, and the monitor does not move. Thanks everyone for your thoughts and questions. Goddahavit |

Ahh... My bartop I'm currently building in PA looks similar to this. Eerily similar! I went with a few more curves, and I don't plan on trackball. I'm building mine to play like a Multi-williams. Looks good! Good work. |

Is that Velcro you are using to attach the CP? :laugh2: :applaud: Neet idea I just might use that for the modular panels on my FrankenMAME cabinet. It would sure fix the problems I am having with panels being loose and poorly drilled holes for the dowels to fit into. ;D TTFN :cheers: Kaytrim |

Where in PA, I am also in pa... Fleetwood. This is my first cp with a trackball, I really should have flush mounted it and put artwork on it, (might still) with the samll ball I dont think plexi would work too well. But a mouse in windows is great. I was going to make this a dos box, but the minipac and ultimarc trackball all just plugged in it was just too easy. I did have to work at getting it to work well in the games, and it is now a little slow in windows, but better than going the wrong way(backspin ) I had at first. Yes, industrial strength velcro, seems to hold fine. Problem I now have is I had everything fitting so good, after I put on the tmolding, it kinda makes it harder to take off the cp, but not too bad. :banghead: |
