Reveal: The Alien Bartop (with rotatable LCD & interchangeable CPs).
dmworking247:
At long last, the evil twin of The Taxi Cab is revealed.... THE ALIEN BARTOP.
The 'Build' thread of these two bartops is located here
More photos and details to follow tomorrow... its late here in Australia and I've got an early start. ::)
Some things to look out for in the video:
[*]Glow-in-the-dark space invader (fan exhaust)
[*]Interchangeable Control Panel (not shown being removed in this video). Main control panel has a dedicated 8 way and a right-handed 4-way.
[*]Illuminated buttons.
[*]Side admin panel with audio in, audio out, video/brightness/volume on screen adjustments, USB input/output.
[*]Rotating monitor. Note how you can still play a horizontal on vertical orientation, or a vertical game on horizontal orientation, if you couldn't be bothered rotating.

Freakin' awesome man! :cheers: I wish I had your skills.
javeryh:
Wow - awesome job. How did you get MAME to display properly? It must know somehow what orientation the monitor is in, right? How did you do it? I love it! :cheers:
Oh yeah - that two-toned t-molding is badass!
DaOld Man:
Great job! Only one suggestion: cover the finger holes in the monitor bezel to keep the marquee light from shining through, Im think something like a pill bottle on the other side that would block the light, but still allow you to insert finger. Or a cover over the light in that area.
I like this bartop..
:applaud: :applaud: :applaud:
Bender:
man that thing rocks! :cheers:
that monitor soulution is fantastic
is it just held in with friction or did you use something else?
