Recycled Star Wars MAME *pics

Gamester:
Holy cow, you and I must have been on the same wavelength or something.  That is almost the exact design I originally thought about for my new project, including the lit deathstar on the side, the red and blue buttons (which I have), and everything.

Guess it's a good thing I didn't pursue that theme...  I would have felt duped to find another cabinet that looked so similar.   :P

Looks fantastic!

My ONLY minor criticism is that I would have like to have seen something more original on the Marquee art.  The whole "MAME" thing is getting a little worn out IMO.  But, again, I'm nit picking...  It really looks GREAT!

I love the curved marquee, and I too would like to know how it was done...

Very nice.  I'm glad to see a well done Star Wars themed cabinet.   :cheers:

I really like how you worked the Death Star into your side art.

great machine love it. what game is that on the screen?
whats the pinball?

Thanks for the kind words.  The game is Street Fighter IV, and the pinball is an Ultrapin (virtual pinball) that has been pimped out completely with a 28" monitor for the backglass and 1080p 32" for the playfield.  It runs Hyperpin and plays around 500 games or so.
To make the curved marquee holder, just cut triangular knotches on the bottom of the 90 degree plastic all the way around.  I'll post a pic to give a better idea.

Ah ok, so it's plastic. I thought you bent an L-shaped aluminium bar with that curve.

It's the same "rounded corner" trick we need to use for T-molding if I understand you correctly.
