Somehow I missed the update with the completed pictures. That thing is freaking gorgeous! Exactly what I would want if i had the room. Very well done.

So....how is the other project coming along?  :cheers:

Is that monitor a LCD, CRT or is it projection? It seems flat (which I like) and still super bright and good quality. Very interesting and clean build. No weird things to deal with for use.
Where's my gold star :P

Thanks everyone.

@silas
Your solution:  cut holes in the exterior walls and mount everything from the outside.  Oh yeah!  Then you'll be in the game. ;D

@Pin
Its a Samsung LCD.  I shopped for something 4:3 with a quick refresh and a wide left/right viewing angle.  It's a TN panel so it kinda sucks to look at from the coin door area, but looks just fine from the player positions.

@mountain
I just started getting back into it.  I had to rebuild some car transmissions and pay some bills and take care of some house stuff and other real-life crap.  I'm painting the strut right now and should have a base (a folding base) and all the angles done soon.  Heh, I think this is the wrong thread... WHERE'S YOUR KIT?  And yeah, I'm considering a new building in the back also.  I have the same 20x20 garage, and apparently I have to do a lot of transmission rebuilds in there. :D

Glad to see you are back on it. The shed in the back should be finished this weekend and I plan on hitting the kits hard. Nice to see you back on both forums!  :cheers: (w/Keystone!)

Make sure you put some pics up somewhere and give me your thoughts.  I would like to build one, but with my back being so hosed, one of those pre-fabs might fit the bill.  I dunno, it's still on the wish list right now.
