Arcade Bones (Marquee & Dashboard graphics finalised)

[ginno]

I bought my controls from OZ Stick about 1 year ago, I live in Melbourne so I actually went out to their office and purchased my controls in person.

I still have the owners contact number and email address if you want me to try and get in contact with him for you.

I concluded as well it would probably be cheaper to purchase the controls from overseas but I like trying to support local businesses.

Let me know if you want me to try and help out waldo

Cheers.

Did bones ever finish his cabinet?

There was a rocket mishap.  It only plays Moon Patrol now.  The base also had to be removed once the Tall Visitors moved on, to accomodate midgets, pygmy's and the like

Good to know that I'm not the only one watching a thread for a cab that never finished. :downer

Only have the T-molding to install and marquee to print and attach.

Should be finished in a day or two.

I would have sworn that was bones playing the cab if it wasn't for the skirt........ Then again, thinking about it.

Be sure to have someone hold the ladder so you can get to the marquee area.

well, it might not be 100% finished, but i can atest to the fact that it plays well. and that 27" arcade monitor is the bomb.  bones even chucked on a dvd to show what it could do. lovely resolution all round (",).

That 27" must look like a friggen big-screen TV in there to Bones

All in good fun, right mate?  I'm sure this'll die down in a little bit, when we're on to the next thing.  Mebbe it'll be Danny's freaky extra appendage

I took a day off from work to read this thread. You'd think Bones was from Texas because everything's bigger in Texas. Love the artwork and colors. I can't wait to see the marquee and T-molding installed... I hope ordered two lengths of 20' right?

Worst thing is most of the threads posts have disappeared. All the great lengths I went to in order to accurately document the build and its all gone....

Bones is from Australia I think, and we Aussies are "big down-under" 

Edit: Being from Australia also explains the 'stars' that an earlier post was complaining about in Bones' artwork... it is the southern cross, a star constellation visible from the Southern Hemisphere... its a patriotic kind of thing, kind of like superimposing the American flag

You didn't mention SlikStick did you?  Whoops. Now I've done it. Better print this one out before it gone too.

I noticed that. It certainly decreased the time it took to read the whole thread. Each post was only a couple of sentences long, then they cut off abruptly. Strange stuff. I wonder what happened. Did you go back and make edits or change pictures at one point?

[Bones]

It's an old thread. I don't know why, but this happens with old threads.....
