Here are some pics of my build so far...
« on: October 21, 2010, 11:09:37 pm »
Note: My camera took a trip to Missouri so I wasn't able to take pictures of the actual fabrication process. But I have a good 10 hours or so into it and this is what I have so far. I know the TV platform is crooked in the right/rear. Still not sure how that happened, will fix it this weekend:P

I used the plans from http://mame.velociworks.com/ and modified to fit my needs.

So far I've used 3 4x8' sheets of MDF, several 2x3's for stability, and ripped a couple 1x4's down to be used as backing.

The bottom is actually a door, for access. The TV is a 27" Sony Trinitron.

Heres some random pictures of the rear and marquee...

Thats it so far. I hope to have the rest of it assembled and painted this weekend. Gonna pick up some 6" 3-way speakers as well and get those installed as well. I'll post pics as it goes:)

Oh, and thanks a TON for this forum:)

Edit: Do the direct links work?

If your camera goes through St. Louis, tell it to stop by and say Hi to me.... :D

Here's what I did.  I clicked every link, right-clicked every image, and selected 'view image'.  Then, I cut and paste the info into the IMG tags.











Voila.

Thanks for fixing the pictures! Not sure what the problem is. Was trying not to spam you all with advertisements from photo-bucket or the like. Didn't work out very well.
