I was so inspired by Bender's work that I have completed three projects just like it. My wife thinks it is the best work I have NEVER done. ;)

Me too! I spent 0.0 hours on it last night and got it done. Here are some finished pics.

Thanks Bender! You are an inspiration to us all.  :cheers:

Any chance I can get the dimensions from you lord bender. I want to build this really bad. OR would you  sell me one built?

I had a fully functional Mame cabinet that took me months to build.....but I've just disassembled it to make it look like Bender's latest masterpiece.

And for the final finishing touch, I've deleted every picture that I took of it.

Now tomorrow: electroshock therapy to make me forget I ever built it.  :blowup: 

Here's the finished product:

I actually got the plans to the CP off an old C-64. I picked up the machine at a salvation army store...seemed to have information from Area 51 no pictures of course...just some crude Sprites. Old hardware limitations ya know.  Then I found an CP design program made in basic on it....the REM statements had Benders signature embedded in them.  Seems Bender has been working on this forever.

Well, I just wanted to report that Bender's design proved to be so popular that I sold all three of mine. You just can't beat a cab that can fit anywhere and nowhere at the same time.  ;) Now, what to do with my new financial windfall?? I know....I can supersize the next time I go to the golden arches... :applaud:

You didn't receive it?   :dunno Man....you just can't trust anyone these days. My accountant assured me that you would get your fair market share of the profits. I can't believe you didn't get those fries!! Don't feel too bad though, I think they made them in the same grease as the chicken McNuggets. :P
Title: Re: sorry please delete (oh, OK then just keep it)
Post by: Bender on March 27, 2009, 02:06:21 pm
I just found out from my accountant that I DID receive it, but it disappeared along with the rest of my investments
man it's sad you can't even bank on fries these days

WOW!! What good is a bailout when it won't even protect a good french fry investment. :angry: I knew I should have sent the Hardee's $6.00 burger instead. It's been said to really hold it's market value...must be all those preservatives! ;)

I have been trying to describe this to my wife but the pictures as well as the plans....well they look like the cabinet.  Any ideas how I can better accomplish this task? I really want to build one but she says it won't fit....but as you all know it fits everywhere and nowhere all at once....

Well, the unique aspect of Bender's design is that you can build a much smaller version first, and then store the full-size version inside of it! ^-^

This might resolve everything. During my quest to understand the materials used I think I have figured it out.

Its a combo of Antimatter and worm holes. Problem is I think bender is the only one that knows the ratio...get it wrong and you have a major league problem with size big or small.

This thread has inspired me to build nothing! Took me 4 years but the result is totally absent! I'd love to see the financial side on this one.

Even though I reaped a GREAT benefit, I choose to dwell on the enjoyment and fulfillment that is received by others in this endeavor. Never has so little meant so much to so few...or something like that. ;D

The empty space to the left looks just like the empty space to the left of a dedicated Major Havoc I used to play.
