First MAME Cabinet (Mortal Kombat) - can it be finished within 4 years?!!

<< < (3/11) > >>

beastathon:
Not too much done today...I cut and glued supports to one side. I was going to do the second one tonight, but decided I should just keep the clamps on over night.



Plans for tomorrow:

* Glue supports to the other side.
* Glue supports to the control panel.
* Cut the top and bottom, ready for assembly the day after.

I've also ordered everything for my control panel today (excluding art).

Thats a big step! If you don't mind me asking, what all did it cost you.

Whats your plan for the control panel art. Definitely spend some money and time coming up with some quality artwork. Well done art will make a project.

beastathon:
Premium Button Red      4   $11.20
Premium Button Blue      4   $11.20
Premium Button White      4   $11.20
Spare Joystick Bat Top - Black    2   $11.90
Joystick Thread Adaptor       2   $2.00
Coin Button Red              2   $9.00
                    SUBTOTAL   $56.50 AUD
              POSTAGE / HANDLING   $12.50 AUD
            TOTAL   $69.00 AUD

Keep in mind, I already have joysticks and I'm just purchasing bat tops.


This is a quick edit, I wanted to stay original as possible, but accommodate six buttons.

More updates tonight.

leapinlew:
Cool. You already have an encoder I presume?

beastathon:
Exactly the same as yesterday, but with the other side.


I also cut the control panel supports ready for tomorrow. Also, do you think I should have the top of the control panel on hinges or not?

leapinlew: Yeah, some J-Pac I think? (it was a while ago).
