Title: Making progress!! (UPDATED!)
Post by: megashock5 on April 05, 2005, 08:59:17 am: UPDATED 4/1405
NEW PICS WITH MARQUEE ADDED

It's coming along. Slowly, but coming along.

Still just working on the outer shell at this point and haven't started any wiring or anything, but here's where I am. I still need to cut the hole in the cpo for the trackball...

Post by: megashock5 on April 05, 2005, 03:07:55 pm: Okay, thanks. I wasn't sure where it should go.

Can a Mod move it to the announcements forum?

That cab is begging for some white stars. ;)

Post by: megashock5 on April 06, 2005, 09:11:35 am: Thanks, the paint turned out quite a bit brighter than the paint chip but hopefully it will be okay.

My basement will have a decent amount of Columbus BlueJackets stuff in it when it's finished (NHL... sniff) and while I didn't want to give it a hockey theme, I was trying to use colors to compliment the stuff that would be hanging on the walls.

Post by: Sprucemoose on April 06, 2005, 11:26:02 am: Oh my gosh! I can't believe there is another Bluejacket fan. I live out in Hilliard. I miss going to the games. A lot of fun

Sorry for hijack, cab is coming along nicely

Looks great!

I am new at this, and only on chapter 3 of Saints book. But what is that 3rd blue joystick at the top of the control panel? Is that for program/game selection or something? Doesn't seem to be a 3rd player controller.

Also, Boston Bruins fan here...sucks that hockeys done. :( At least I don't have to watch my team lose to the damn Canadiens again! (and at least almost all of our other teams in New England are winning!).

Once again, nice looking Cabinet!

Post by: RTSDaddy2 on April 21, 2005, 07:26:36 pm: Looks great! I've seen a couple of your posts elsewhere (offered my two cents once, though I'm not sure it was worth more than a penny as I misread your question), so I'm glad to see where you are! Like the name and the artwork so far!
