Title: 2 1/4" T-molding
Post by: dieseldogpi on November 22, 2009, 01:28:10 am

Anyone know where I can find some 2 1/4" T-molding besides this:

$60 shipped just seems way too much.  Thanks.

Not really, for exact repro of the fat Atari molding that seems pretty damned reasonable. Are you looking for it for a MH cab or something else ?

I'm not looking for exact reproduction. It was a 720 degrees machine converted to a neo geo machine, so the base of it has that 2 1/4" T-molding around the side.  I'm tearing it down to MAME it.  I just need something for the bottom.

Or you do the proper thing and restore it to 720 greatness.

For a start, the T-molding is "on offer" right here for only 20 bucks INCL. shipping:
