Arcadia Ave.(95%) and Budweiser Mame cabs(30%)
Doctor Ugs:
My bud pased by today so i got a bit of work done today on cabs.
Hmmm what's this for...
...seems familiar.
Another shot....
Tadaaaaaaaaaaaaa, just like the real deal... One flick of the switch and the whole cab will come alive, marquee, pc, monitor and speakers.
I'll post pics of how the wiring will be done when i get to it...
Picture of moniter shelf.Couldnt clamp it using clamps, so i glued and screwed it there(using screws as clamps)
One coin door reassembled, with original Bally plate which we put back using rivets.
Air holes for monitor heat + Speaker panel in place, need to drill hole for volume knob.
Coming along well....
We wanted that coin box flush with opening in front so we built a little table for the coin box, with ledges.
Inside shot of my coin door.
Grills i painted for air holes in back of cab.
PIc of me holding up grill..... :p
That's it for now.. I got a couple of holes left to drill for volume knob, and power cord. And then i can finally start the oil based primer on these beasts....
Doctor Ugs:
Thought i'd update this thread with the little work i got done. I did the mistake of plugging up a mock CP. yep, that's right , i been playing all week.....
anyway, here's what i got done....
Mock control panel, the buttons and joystick i connected all work fine.
mess of wires. All wires are extra long to allow final install in real panel. That plate is for all my ground cables. not gonna use that in final setup, ill be using a real ground block strip.
under the hood, only player 1 joystick is plugged. side flipper buttons for pinball are connected(and working)...... damn pinball, been slowing down the build process...
Primed and sanded with 220 grit sandpaper. smooth as hell. still need another whole coat.
same with control panel box, primed and sanded with 220 grit sandpaper for extra smooth finish.
ablizno:

It's an industrial grade on/off switch
TOK:
Don't you need a momentary switch to fire a PC with an ATX supply? I use momentary push buttons on all of mine.
