That is looking super sexy!

Well the day has finally come, got round to placing everything in the cab and wiring it up, and everything works together 






Things i still need to do:

1. Replace the stick dust covers
2. Replace the coin shot cover
3. Place the blue sheet of paper in the instruction marquee
4. Get a fancy push button for the power button at the front
5. Get soft15khz program working with Windows XP 64
6. Find a way of fixing the marquee to the cab, any ideas?, glue i guess!?
7. Probably loads off other stuff  :?

I am really happy with the way this project has turned out so far, took longer that i was expecting but has been worth it

8. Paint the screen bezel gray

I love everything else about it.

Wow.   Lettuce, from start to finish how long did it take to finish this project?  Looks awesome, now my wife wants a KLAX candy cab....

Sheesh....

A little over 5 weeks mate, working some nights in the week after work, and most of the sundays

[Spaced Ace]

Nice work, thanks for posting it all here too...

Good work buddy, looks awesome! 

If you (and only if you) want some stainless dustcovers for your most awesome candy cabs of cabs I will make you some for free if you like.

The only catch is if I'm in the area you have to let me have a play!

Finished assembling all parts of the CP, might be adding LED to the buttons not sure yet...





Might rename this cab to, 'The Blue Whale'

Thanks for the offer Franco, but im using these white dustcovers

Love the "eye candy". I went with white dust washers myself on my candy, they look great against the bezel. Are those the ultimarc translucent buttons? How do they feel? Been using happs on my candy and I'm looking to replace 'em as they are so "brittle". Just not sure of the feel do they play well? Always worth adding LED's nothing sets off a candy cab like "mood lighting"

Haven't really go round to testing the buttons much yet, but they are Seimitsu PS-14-KN buttons

Very suavely done, good vision and smartly laid out in all respects. I love when planning pays off so nicely. You've got a winner on your hands.... and Blue Whale isn't half bad either 

[Timstuff]

Wow, that thing looks great! I wish I had a candy cab.
