I am building a jukebox out of an old solid wood console stereo it had a B/W tv in it that was bad and so I installed a touch screen and all that . I used a new acer computer which I had to make bulkhead mountable which means that I had to drill into the case and install brackets. I called the only jukebox sellers in my area and naturally they don't have any old computer cores laying around. Do you know where I can get a bulkhead mount case somewhere? I seen them in many industrial equipment. Thanks for any help.

Here is my jukebox project

I am looking for something like this,,,,,,,

Here are more pictures of my music server based console. It was a Magnavox theatre console with a bad tv. I installed my McIntosh pre-amp/tuner in it with a Crest 400 watt power amp.

I also installed a Logitech plate amp and the sub in the bay beneath the monitor. I am moving to Kentucky and Detroit for a while and so I won't use my Altec Lansing A7s for a while so I have installed a much smaller sound system in it so I can use it in an apartment. those A7s will have the cops called I know. So anyway I still hope to find either an ATM machine computer core or a touchtunes core. So far so bad.. Opinions on the install? does it look okay at least? trying to get better all the time. Thanks,

I have to say.. that this is the WORSE forum I ever joined in regards to replies. Must I change my user name?? Is there something that offends? I mean I have asked about opinions on this build since the 12th,,,,,,,,,,, nothing. I asked about computer cores. nothing. I mean there has to be SOMEONE on here that has some idea where to find a computer core after all there are jukebox people on here. I am a little frustrated at the lack of response. sorry not trying to be nasty just tired of seeing "Hammondcrazy" days on end when I post a question. Thanks.

You happen to be posting in a forum that a lot of people don't frequent. Questions about specific computer cases or mounts, questions about CPUs, try the main forum.
If most people on this forum are anything like me, they frequent the Main and Project Announcements forums, and drop in to see anything overly interesting in the rest of them. If it's not particularly eye catching, we don't respond.
Getting testy about it is really not going to encourage anyone to help you. Most of us here know this is the best forum related to BYO arcade cabinets on the internet. If you disagree, feel free to look elsewhere.

Case in point, I did drop in and started reading through the thread, and your last post encouraged me to write TWO about your attitude, and not want to take any time to go back and read for specifics to try to get the answers you need. You catch more flies with honey.

Don't mean to be mean or nasty. just frustrating and been a bad week. The guy here in Missouri who sells jukeboxes is of no help at all. and I can't get anywhere looking online for a bulkmount computer case. Just felt ignored and I was wrong Sorry.

Chassis Box for Nighthawk Rev. D (metal case) 752250250 $60.00 order it directly from ITsgames.
Parts & Customer Service Phone : 847.383.1092 * FAX : 847.454.9156 * Email : PartsAdvance@itsgames.com
it's a mountable system box used in golden tee machines.. it's probably what you're looking for. it houses a standard ATX power supply and possibly up to a full size ATX motherboard. i'd have to double check... if not a standard flex ATX.
a few pics are in the manual:
