Project #2: Pac-man from scratch
amadama:
Thanks. It looks like it will be a slow week for me as far as this project is concerned. I am getting home too late from work to really do anything with this.
I did order a bunch of parts for this and my mini Dragon's Lair project (joysticks, buttons, encoders, etc...) I even ordered a spinner (gotta make a multi PC as well as the stock one, must play Arkanoid!! (and Tron too!!)
Any thoughts on my monitor dilemma (wicked heavy monitor!!)

BobA:
With the weight of that monitor you might want to support it at the top with the frame. The MDF with a cutout and some 1x2 to add strength both at the sides and where the mdf is resting. You could add extra support under the monitor to support it from the bottom too. Another shelf might be warranted.

I'm starting to think 20" lcd for this build now....
(saw a used one that does 1600x1200 resolution for under $100)
amadama:
Wow, I go away for a few days and my not even finished yet Pac-man has a girlfriend!
WunderCade:
Perhaps it's just the angle at which the cabinets are sitting. But to me, it looks like you used the Mrs. Pac-man cabinet specs on your Pac-Man (form scratch) cabinet. Am I wrong?
*Edit In looking at it more closely, it does appear that it is angle that of the photo throwing me off.
