I also put some more red t-molding on.  Here is a picture of me playing X-men Vs. Street Fighter.

To finish before this weekend:
I need to trim some plexiglass for the marquee and the monitor cover.  Install the last piece of red t-molding on the front of the control panel.

To do later:
Put some sort of volume control on the outside... not difficult, just a little wiring.

This thing is a blast to play!

If anyone wants my plans, let me know, I have either ACAD drawings or converted jpg.

I would like a JPG plan, of your Nintendo Bartop.

I haven't updated this forum in awhile, well, because I haven't done anything to my cab since the last post. 

I installed a new monitor because the other one I bought crapped out on me.  I had a co-worker weld a metal bracket to hold the new monitor in the cab. 

I also painted the bezel black.  I think it turned out real nice, and I can't wait to I move into a large home to build a full upright 4 player MAME machine!!!

*EDIT* I also forgot to mention that I had to replace the power supply and motherboard a few months ago... bummer

This machine isn't 100%, I want to get some large red nintendo logos and put them on the side, put a light inside the marquee, and touch up the paint a little from all the moving.

Wow! Forgot all about this baby. Looks great! Can't remember if you posted the dimensions, if not what size is it? Also, if it were mine, I might slap some paint on that bracket you had welded up. It may start to rust on you just from humidity alone  ;)  Again great job, I'll bet it's a blast to play.

Someone else has been asking for the dimension sheets I made up on autoCAD.  I'll have to find those, it has been awhile.

The foot print is 20"x20", and it is 27" tall.

For anyone thinking of ever doing a bartop, plan, plan, plan... Its a real pain to cram everything in a small box!
