Hey guys. Thought I would share what I've been up to this past week or so!
I saw some videos of these types of machines, and since I already have a MAME arcade cabinet I thought I might as well add one of these to go with it!
I am however a DIY novice and this hasnt been without some problems, and there is still a long way to go!
Anyway I will keep updating with progress and pictures!
Samsung 40" LCD TV panel removed from case:
Two sheets of 18MM MDF marked up at a shallow angle ready for cutting:
On the second attempt (first try with jigsaw did not go well, second try with circular saw!)
Looking like a cabinet now! If the project fails I could always use it as a coffin lol
Test hanging of TV panel
Couldn't resist plugging an old PC into it and playing some Back to the Future Pinball using the keyboard!
Two flipper buttons fitted!
Well that's all for now, gonna work on the back box next and mount one or two monitors in there, haven't decided lol.
Let me know what you guys think!
