FunkyAndroid's portable arcade "Bloc-ade"
FunkyAndroid:
I'm starting to think about designing and having a CPO printed. I'm not quite sure what material people have their CPOs made out of. Can anybody tell me what it is and maybe link a site that does custom prints?
YoGaBaR:
Take a look at my woody and look at the cp. It is made from croian. The same corian that is used on countertops. I got my piece cut finished and holes drilled in it for $50.
FunkyAndroid:
Got a lot done since the last update. I installed the computer last weekend and got everything installed. It's up and fully functional though! I also got the control panel all mapped out and cut yesterday and all the buttons are in. I took pictures early this morning and I got the two buttons i decided to add (to make it a 7 button layout) right after I took the pictures, so they're not in them. Up next is connecting the hinge to the control panel and attaching the joysticks. Still unsure what to do w/ the control panel art, yours looks nice YoGa, but I'm looking for something a little more custom looking. Maybe I'll get starting with the graphics after i get the buttons all wired up.
Pics are attached. Enjoi
YoGaBaR:
That is looking nice. I like how you have enough room to put a TB in later. Whats the overall dimensions of the box?
FunkyAndroid:
Thanks YoGa, dimensions for the box are 36" wide, 15" deep, and about 14" tall at the back with a 5 degree slant to the front. It's a beast! It's easily 40 pounds. Gunna need to put on some handles to make handling
TB's are expensive! I decided to keep a space for it in case I want to add one later when my budget can afford it. I attached the hinge to the box and the CP, and got the joysticks mounted. Didn't take pictures yet though, I'll probably put some up tomorrow.
