slikstik VS DIY
(1/12) > >>
jefftse:
Guys.. I'm building my cabinet and I got a nice plan from mameroom.com and now I have to decide on if I want to buy a 4 player CP from slikstik or I should just DIY.  Maybe my math is wrong, but I think I will only save $150 is that if I build my own.

Is any reason I shouldn't buy it from a vendor?

Thanks
Jeff

It may take longer to get it from Slikstik then building it yourself.   You get satsisfaction from building it yourself.  If you are not up to the woodworking how about a custom cp assy from arcades R fun and populate it yourself and get most of the experience of BYOAC.fun

I'm just a little worried about the wiring although i'm pretty good with that.

Wiring is much easier than it appears. In fact, I think the woodworking is much more difficult than the wiring. Read up on some wiring guides and you'll see that it's not as scary as you might think.

yeah, the wiring is a piece of cake.  I never wired anything before and I nailed it on my first try.  I thought the woodworking would be the easiest part - boy was I wrong...  Also, $150 is a lot of savings, IMO - build it yourself!!
