Title: Space Invaders Bartop!
Post by: sdchown on November 17, 2012, 11:44:19 am
Hi

Finished my Space Invaders themed bartop today (this one being built on commission). Excuse the mess on the floor, I really need more workshop space!

Very pleased with how the artwork came out.

Looks awesome.... What are you using to hold the marquee?  It's really thin!  Also, how does it sound?   Or should I say... where does it sound?

Plastic Edging from B&Q (Hardware store). Speakers are behind the marquee, facing down. There's holes for them. Wires to a 5W stereo amp.
