Pinball Cab 42" LCD Playfield
Kurt:
Kizer: Its automotive putty used on cars along with the primer gives a very smooth surface just need to sand in between coats. Paint i used was black gloss enamel 3-4 coats depending on area i was painting along with wet sanding between coats followed by 2 coats of enamel clear coat for that extra shine.
RobotNinjaTim: Thanks, I'm hoping so there is alittle more involved in a mame cab i think but im yet to sign off on a design im 100% happy with.
Ond: 2mm is alot when i have to look at it all the time ;) Im honored to know your watching it more so that you think its a good example of a virtual pinball cab, but i have to say if it wasnt for everyone before me who has built on of these i would never of known where to start.
Alot of people have asked me how much it costs to throw one together and before i let them finish i throw out a NO im not making another one! Unless someone donates me a CNC machine >:D
Kurt:
After getting smashed by the storm last night i got a day off work as we had no power so i decided to take a chance at painting the lockdown bar to suit the rest of the cab.
cleaned, Primed twice and sanded in between then spray putty 2 coats with light sanding in between and 2 coats so far of black still needs a wet sand and an extra coat.
Kurt:
Just ordered the rest of the bits and pieces I have been meaning to for the last few weeks so i can start wiring it all up over the Easter break.
Also ordered 2 industrial relays to help the flippers feel more real.. expensive little things $230 to get them to my door damn customs.
