Been meaning to put these up..
« on: July 17, 2003, 09:10:45 pm »
Here is a pic of my arcade machine I built a few months back.  I have been meaning to put these up for some time now, but I figure now is good as any.  I will post all the pictures on my web page if I can ever find the time.

That's half the reason people come to this site. It's not JUST for building a good arcade machine. It's for trying to build the BEST!  ;)

Thanks Xar256.  The pictures I took don't do it justice.  I will put up the rest when/if I get my web space up.  It was my first attempt at Photoshop and I am very happy with it.  I used the Joust guys from another marquee on the net (need to find that site to give some credit.)  If anyone wants a copy of it let me know.

Looks real good  ;D

Is your CP flat by the way and also what size TV/monitor you using?

Its a standard Lucid design and the CP is angled down, but the top of the cp is flat.  I have another CP top that is thinner MDF and Plexi to cover it, but I need to design the cp art and cut all the holes first.  A project is never done...

The montor is a 21" Hitachi PC.  I wish it were bigger, but I don't have the cash for a well-garner right now.  I don't regret using this monitor and would recommend it to anyone.

Actually , since you're offering I would love a copy of the marquee.   I think those orange swirls would fit perfectly with the plans I have buried deep inside my mind...<Uh...they WERE there...Awww nuts!>   :P

Xar256,

Check your email.  I sent you a copy of the Marquee.  Feel free to alter it as you wish.

The cab's awsome! Were did you get that CP idea from? Star trek!  ;DJoke ;D

I'm kidding, it looks very arcadish! The only thing that i dislike, are the in-line buttons...  :-\

Cabs, usually have rounded display buttons, arc display buttons etc.

But well, give a mamey to this one! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
