Main cabinet assembled:

This one is getting custom artwork courtesy of opt2not, will be running an R-Type II PCB, switching power supply, RGB -> VGA converter, and a Mini-SLG.

Stay tuned!

That it is! Complete with potato cam goodness! (Don't worry, I'm taking pics with the good camera, too)

Well that's more progress than mine.

Summertime interference has been putting my hobbies on-hold lately. I don't know how you guys in AZ survive it in that heat...

Swimming pool. Mine's hovering around 87 degrees or so... pretty nice to jump in when it's 109 out.

We're at 91 degrees in our house right now... ...but, GOOD NEWS! We're having CENTRAL AIR installed on Friday!!! Woop woop!

Lol. I have 9 tons of cooling capacity spread across 2 units. A 4 ton and a 5 ton. My power bill in the summer is insane.

Dude, that's CRAZY. We're getting a single 2 ton installed. I can't imagine your bills. (You should move closer to the ocean. Srsly.)

Right, so, I live in the swamp by the ocean and my power bills suck too.

Holy crap. I'd ignite if I walked outside in 91°. The high for Calgary today was like 80°ish. I'm just going to build the rest of my cab in my basement were it's nice and cool. (Look at that, I even converted to "American" for you folk

)

Dude, it was 91 in my house. It was cooler outside. Only thing was it was a torrential downpour, and my house is built with defective casement windows.

ViriiGuy · « **Reply #12 on:** July 02, 2014, 09:40:35 pm »

It was 94 here today. But inside the house and my office it was a nice 75.

I guess i live in the foothills of the Rockies and not the frigid-to-arid wasteland that is Ontario. I can't complain too much...

When we get Chinooks in the middle of winter all the snow melts for a week and its like plus 14°C (57.2°F). Then there are those jerks in Vancouver/Seattle that golf 365 days of the year. Oh well... i guess it does rain on the West Coast 362 of those days.

Sorry, WAY too off topic.

I wouldn't worry. If we had to wait for Haruman to produce content in his thread, we'd be on page 3 already.

Of course you have. That's why you have so many of those left over from your show.

What can I say, people seem to want kits, not completed bartops...

Next week I ship one to Belgium... even though they beat us in World Cup.

Hey, now. My CNC shop just didn't actually want to focus on CNC services. It certainly wasn't me and my super-awesome designs!

emphatic · « **Reply #27 on:** July 22, 2014, 03:03:48 pm »

You could have put FIRE under the third button as well on the CPO, as R-Type only uses two buttons.

Yeah I know... I debated on this, decided to keep the third button there, blank, in case I swap other PCB's in.

So many that use "Force" for button two?

Please excuse the noob question - but a pcb will fit in that bartop? That's pretty rad if so.

well, to be fair it depends on the PCB. Im 99.99999% sure Tekken 4 and Gauntlet Legends wont fit in there

The Nintendo bartop is pretty roomy. I'm pretty sure I could get a full CPS2 boardset in there... what does a Tekken 4 or Gauntlet Legends pcb look like?

Malenko · « **Reply #37 on:** July 23, 2014, 09:55:03 am »

well, MAYBE tekken 4:

its slightly wider than a CPS2, but shorter.

But Gauntlet Legends?

its like 3 feet long, and foot and a half wide :p

Dude. "LIFE-LIKE VIOLENCE MILD"? You're the Photoshop prodigy - you need to fix that up. I wouldn't be happy without it having some warning that you could sport a physical injury from just playing the game.

maybe if I wasnt trying to sell the boards...... lol
