Ok, since it had SF2 I will correct myself, hehe.

Wow, a late cps1/cps2 cab, cool!


Hehe, I see you redid inside the marquee area.
Didn't that partition that the light bulb for the marquee suck design wise.  I saw that with my double dragon2 cabinet.  I suppose to center the bulb there isn;t much other way to do it.  But it makes working with those cabinets a pain:)

Maybe I should strip the artwork off my double dragon 2 cabinet and paint it black.  clean it up a bit, put some controls in.  Though the cp is in bad condition.  Oh wait, I stole the marquee holder off it, damn it.  I'd have to get one from someplace.

Oh, since it's the same cabinet, I got a question for you.  The joys are screwed in, the screws are welded to the cp, right?  I haven't completely stripped my cabinet yet.

I notice you only have two clasps to hold the cp down

Was the middle one missing?  I stole the middle one out of my ddragon2, I figured 2 is already alot to hold the panel down:)

How did you get that cp art done?  since it is a metal cp.

Whew, that monitor just fits, huh? It looks like it would touch the backdoor.

thx for all the compliments....
and to answer some of the questions/comments...

yes... I still have the bezel... I think its original bezel...
(but its kinda in bad shape.... the pic is degrading...)

I have promised someone that I'll scan it in.... (sorry... will need to check who I promised to...   :P   ;)  )
(and I will do it....) Sorry... but this coming week or 2, I really have a lot of things to catch up and to do scanning, I need to go to my friend's place (I don't have a scanner)...
I think I will scan it in by pieces (hi res), and then use photoshop to connect them together.... (and you guys can working on sharpening it up.... I suck in altering colors...) but I'll need some time before I can finish that.... so plz bare with me....

its originally a 2 players metal panel each have 6 buttons...
I took it out and redo it with 3/4 plywood.... (its in bad shape...) it originally has a piano hinge on the bottom and 2 panel clamps on top to hold the panel... I'm now holding it only with 4 Happs panel clamp... 2 on top and 2 on side... so far, its MIGHTY tight and will NOT shake at all....

yes... the artwork is the star war racing scene...

and Sorry about geocities bandwidth.... as said, I'm minimal in web pgrmming....
I already have another account in fortunecity, but no time to re-org and move the web site yet...

1 thing I WILL add back in to my site is to specially thx the community of BYOAC.... (other than just thx everyone...) cos I got most of the help I needed here.... (that... I will do ASAP.....)   ;D   ;D

it originally only has 2 clamps on the control panel...

and yes... the monitor fits kinda ok for the front (it MIGHT... just might.... fit a 21" mon...) but most likely not bigger....
but in the back... its already popping out now.... I have to cut a rectangular hole in the back piece so that I can close... but not a real big hole.... (I'll add some pics... including the back piece later....)

;D    ;)
