I'd take out a door frame and *make* it fit! sorry to hear about that tragedy.... an orpaned cabinet... *sigh* rampy --- End quote --- Hah ramp I can't belive you remembered that! Funny stuff for sure. It looks as if I will be building a new cab this summer. I've got to somehow top this one. I've got a few ideas up my sleeve. In the meantime I'm restoring an old Red Alert cab that was given to me. I'll be hanging around the forums more often now. I building bug has hit once again. Thanks for all the suggestions and I'll cya all around! -madk Here is my progress on the restoration. This thing looks like it was out in the rain for a few weeks. I had to peel up a few layers of ply and fill with wood filler. I swear when I'm done this thing will be about 75% wood filler. Ha...Oh well. This'll be my old school cab. Vert monitor and most likely a trackball too. |

Yes I vaguely remember someone (Howard Casto?) said the panel must have been computer generated. Personally I'd take that as a compliment. I don't suppose we could have some closeups of the control panel, it's one of the best around. |

Seriouslly..just that I was kinda REALLY busy lately with exams and shiz but hopefully this week I could launch the new site. And madk, you are really converting the cabinet(pic above) ? why not build? Sometimes you end up working more trying to *fix* a cabinet then building a new one. :( just a thought :) PS:I remember howard.... "hey man,level with me...the panel is FAKE !,LOL". :D |

So far I've honestly gotten much more enjoyment out of refurbin the old cab. I feel like I am preserving the past. It was great popping that think open and still finding all the original paperwork and what not. Don't get me wrong tho...I will be building one this summer. I can't live without my 2d fighters. Right now I am just going to put my time into fixing this one up and use it for vertical monitor games. Better pic of the cp - |
