Glowing translucent cab...
<< < (3/3)
Turnarcades:
Now that's a whole new level of cool! I bet it wouldn't cost that much to replicate either - maybe a couple of hundred in strengthened acrylic and some repro graphics, then add the boards of your choice.

I real do not like the look of a see-thru cabinet .... that PacMan cabinet seems way to messy to me .... does not even seem "done" really.

Yeah, you really need to go all out with clean wiring if you're going to do that.

Actually you're looking at about $1000 in acrylic alone, before cutting and shaping. Ouch!

That see through Ms. Pacman does have a cool factor as someone said but I wouldn't want something like that. I assume it scratches easily and fingerprints will always be easily visible. Not to mention all the dust that will stick to it from static cling plus the dust that collects on the inside. Just seems like too much maintenance for such a cab. Plus the inside circuit boards and all, while being kept original clashes with the cool look of the transparency.


And DannyR, where did you get that LED glowing spinner knob?

Not mine. 

Got the pic from this thread:

I believe its a picture of the control panel from Cornchip's Revolver Arcade Project.  Instructions on how he built it are about halfway down the thread:
