Title: Golf theme "PARCADE" complete
Post by: pmailley on December 27, 2011, 09:05:18 pm

This is just the latest theme in my Slim Mame units, this one took 2 years to complete as LIFE got in the way.
It is a Golf theme that was built as a gift for a family member, it has golf ball trim as well as 2 putters holding up the control panel, all on a astro turf covered base, it has a 28"LED monitor and is running on a Dell P4 with 512Mb ram, and a 500Gb hard drive.
It has Happ controls all on an I-pac4, the marquee is rounded and lit with an LED light bar.
Sorry no construction photos for this one, but there is photos at my page WWW.tazmame.wordpress.com (http://WWW.tazmame.wordpress.com)
There is also FREE Cad plans and build photos there as well.

Nicely done.  I love the golf theme and the turf on the base is a neat touch.   :applaud:

The only thing that would make it cooler would be to have those clubs be motion-sensing, and have some sort of virtual golf game on the cab...

Nice cab.  The family member who gets it should be thrilled.
