Another pic of bronze plexi - I love it
« on: February 22, 2004, 05:47:51 pm »
Here is a pic of a cab that I am working on. I just got the bronze plexi cut, and painted the backside bezel black with Krylon Fusion spray paint. It makes for a pretty awesome look.

The picture shows through perfectly believe it or not. I'll try to post pics when I get the computer put in.

Ever wonder what full side art looks like?

Here is another shot with more direct light - you can see the painted bezel in this one.

More pictures can be found here:

I think it looks so much better than just plain clear plexi like my first cab:http://aaronmurray.com/default.asp?page=arcade/mamecab1.htm

no - it is a 21" HP CRT monitor. The good part about it is that it only weighs 216 pounds  ;)

I painted the monitor front black so it doesn't stand out.

will the plexi have any effect with light guns and accuracy? Say.. the Act labs gun?

Yep.

P.S.  216 lbs?!  I'd pass on that!

I have bronze plexi on my cab and it works perfectly with Actlabs guns.
What would happen if the whole world farted at the same time?

I used bronze plexi in mine as well. You can see through it perfectly, and in my opinion it really improves the overal look of the cab.
