Hello all. This is my first project. I got this cabinet for free. I was painted all black and COMPLETLY empty. I had to get everything for this cabinet. Its a very solid cab, with no wood damage, so I thought it would make a great first project. Although its not complete, here is what I have so far...

SCROLL DOWN FOR MORE..

What is that front art, vinyl overlay?

JeepMonkey · « **Reply #2 on:** May 14, 2007, 03:28:21 pm »

Nice work so far.

Do you have any of the internal electronic parts? I can see the speaker and wires, but I can't tell what else is inside.

Nostalgia · « **Reply #3 on:** May 14, 2007, 03:32:57 pm »

Yeh, I have new front and side art for it. Havent put the sides on yet. Heres a shot of the interior. I have an original wire harness. No board yet though..

Did you drop the wad for TwoBits art? Just curious, I have that same cab sanded to the wood but don't feel like spending half the value of the cab for artwork.

Nope, I didnt get the two bits. I got mine for a reasonable price and its just as good quality wise. Im not sure if the colors are same for the two, but I took my front art to Home Depot, and they scanned it and mixed me some paint to match. I think it looks good.

I just scored a free gutted, black painted Pacman cabinet this week myself

Where did you get the artwork?

That thread title sounds like a posthumous album title.

Knievel · « **Reply #20 on:** May 27, 2007, 03:26:55 pm »

Please don't post your source. I'm sure it's the same one I've been using and I don't want to lose it.

NiteWalker · « **Reply #21 on:** May 27, 2007, 07:57:03 pm »

How would you lose it?

Hi Nostalgia, Could you pm me the info on were to get the art. I'm hoping to do a pacman replica cab towards the end of summer. Thanks

Nice job on your cab. Are you going to add a speedup chip ?

Havok · « **Reply #24 on:** June 01, 2007, 08:46:37 am »

Another request for artwork source pm...

amadama · « **Reply #25 on:** June 02, 2007, 12:11:36 am »

Sorry to be a pest too, but can you also pm me where to get the pac art?
Thanks!
(I have printed some of my own stuff, and it came out really good, but I'm asfraid to print out something so large and have it all messed up (it's expensive in ink and vinyl!))
Here's an example of some artwork I printed out:

Nostalgia · « **Reply #26 on:** June 09, 2007, 04:01:35 pm »

More pics of some more stuff done.

Nostalgia · « **Reply #27 on:** June 09, 2007, 04:17:40 pm »

1 more with the glass in. Now to get it to work $:-\$ ...

amadama · « **Reply #28 on:** June 09, 2007, 10:13:37 pm »

Looking great!
What method did you use to apply the side art? Wet, dry? Did you use additional adhesive on the wood or was the vinyl self-adhesive enough?

I layed it out the way I liked it. Clamped it down, and trimmed. Then the wife and I applied it dry. We went slow starting from the top. Turned out great.

It is indeed looking great! Can't wait to see it all compete (you are almost there!!)
