That's the way I also finance my projects.
Sadly had to sell my Popeye bartop, but sometimes you have to move on  :dizzy:

With a little profit you can start your next project with some more extra's.

But always keep your budget in mind when you start a new projct. ( that's how I do it, I can edit a lot of bling end axtra gadgets, But I don't need it and cost a lot more )

Good luck

There was a lot of trouble with some re-arrange some things to got it worked very well.
Finally I change the plexi to glass and it is way better then plexi     :applaud:
For me there is no more plexi in my build anymore.

Still ad more tables to the cabinet and do some final hyperspin settings and design stuff   :notworthy:

Thanks guys,

Really, Really struggle with some emulators   :banghead:

When I test it in window mode, it runs fine on my backglass monitor, but on full screen it jumps over to the playfield monitor   :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Genesis, Daphne.. lost a lot of hours to run these M  :censored:
Maybe some batch scripting things?

I even run UltraMon, but did not run with Hyperspin.

So, slow progress here.

Did counting the bills from this build   :dizzy: with the brand new pc it's a big one, but hey, you have to gamble sometimes   :cheers:

Hope that someone can help me on the right direction her   :notworthy: :notworthy:

Greetings

Thanks,

PinballX will run and can handle PinballFx2, but I don't use it.. I'm gonna go with Visual Pinball only I think

Thanks.  I like the form factor of your cabinet.  I plan on doing something similar.  Do you have any action shots of a vertical shooter on your lower playfield screen?  Thanks for sharing your video.

Do you plan on putting it on legs?

I only play pinball on the playfield and the menu is showing there, arcade gaming is on the backglass monitor.
No, I let it on the table.. it's a bartop  ;)

But you never know  :dizzy:

What a nice little build, you have surely piqued my interest.
So on with the barrage ;)
  • What are the specs of the PC you use to run this?
  • The sides look like 18mm (or 3/4"), what material thickness are you using for the rest?
  • Were you so lucky that the visible width of the backglass monitor was exactly visible playfield monitor height plus 2 x material thickness?
  • How is the painted lockdown bar handling sweaty palms?
  • Do you have any internal pics?

Hi Sho,

Sorry for the very late answers  :angel: I was very busy with building a kitchen en painting doors and all kind of crap you came across when a son buys a home  :cheers:

What are the specs of the PC you use to run this? : AMD A8-6600K 3.90GHz FM2, Asus PCI-e Radeon HD6670 1GB, Crucial 1x8GB, DDR3, PC12800, CLI9, Ballistix Sport, Gigabyte GA-F2A88XM-HD3 AMD A88X, SAT600 RAID, Seagate Harddrive 3,5" 1TB, Sata600, 7200rpm

The sides look like 18mm (or 3/4"), what material thickness are you using for the rest? : All my build I use for the sides 18mm and the rest is 12mm MDF.  Works for me  :cheers:

Were you so lucky that the visible width of the backglass monitor was exactly visible playfield monitor height plus 2 x material thickness? : No, that was no luck, there was a lot of planning and lurking for the right monitor. Fist I had a 15"backglass monitor, but that was to small for a non bezel frame, so replace it for a 17 and the playfield 24". And after that I could made the slots for the side panels to create the none bezel look.
It feels better to have a non bezel look for this, otherwise the whole thing became a lot bigger and you got large aluminium L strip to cover the monitor frame, and that's what I don't like  :dizzy:

How is the painted lockdown bar handling sweaty palms? : For now it still holds  :cheers: There is a lot of primer, filler and paint on it, so it HAVE to stay good  :laugh2:

Do you have any internal pics? : Not for now ;) but if you want some special screens, I could make some if I find some time for it.


Greetings  :cheers:

Impressive!!!
I built a full sized Pin2K cabinet, but have often wondered how it would translate into a mini cab... Looks good!!

Hi Sho,

Sorry for the very late answers  :angel: I was very busy with building a kitchen en painting doors and all kind of crap you came across when a son buys a home  :cheers:
Thanks, I have already started the build with 18(19?mm) and 12mm, must admit I am a little concerned with fitting the PC inside looking at the sides once they were cut ;)
But, so far so good, it looks like a 16:10 24" monitor's height is very similar to a 4:3 17" (with 2 x 19mm on each side). So aiming for a bezel-less design with those monitors should pan out.

Well after this cab I'm working on I now know what I'm building next. My son loves pinball and I do not have much room in my gameroom but I think I can make room for some thing like this. Great work man!
