That's an amazing CP build. Reminded me of Transformers. Now if you could just make it sound like Opus Prime when it transforms.  :afro:

The mame system is wired up & began testing the complete box with some friends. I wanted to see what broke before I take it apart and added the graphics & t-molding before one last final tear down and build. I located a couple of weak spots but I have to say, I am really surprised at how solid it feels when we have 4 players on it. Seriously had my doubts that it would really work, but so far it does.

For the graphics, the control panel overlay is going to get printed, compliments of a good friend who has a printer friend that owes him a favor. The end result will be 4 giant poly stickers. The sides and bottom front are going to be stenciled. I remember seeing that someone actually matched up the red and yellow colors to some modern spray paints. I've searched for a couple of hours now and cant seen to find where I saw them. Does anyone here know or direct me to someone who may know where i could find it?

One of the guys on Klov posted this for Stargate, which is pretty close to the same color scheme:

Use the below at your own risk:

=====================
Stargate
=====================
1 Gallon - True Value Paint
Base: GHP-N (Daylight)
Ext. Latex/Gloss/Weatherall

Colorant Amount
KX 10
R 10Y2
V 5Y36

Yellow: Rustoleum Sunburst Yellow (spraypaint)
Black: Rustoleum Gloss Black (spraypaint)

Unfortunately I don't see anything for spraypaint in red. Good luck - looks great so far!

It's been a looong while since my last update. that's because I've been busy. Busy playing games!! I finally completed the build of the cabinet and now have a working foldable arcade machine in the house. I still have to add the graphics and a more powerfull PC, but so far, it works! I'm still not sure how to automate the transformation. After everything is together, there isn't much room left for actuators and such.
