The Official Post your Arcade Cabinet Thread!!

Not sure where you're located Pablo, but the community in FL has helped me find most things I've needed, including 29" Monitors.

Maybe you have a local collector community you can look into?

We are kinda spread out over here in WA.  Most other peeps are too busy hoarding. Understandably of course.

does anybody have the plans for the vewlix cab control panel?

Anyone here ever try one of those jamma to vga converters? IMO we are at the point where every arcade collector is hoarding shit. Can't track down a large monitor at all.

I have one that I'm using to split the signal from my cab to an extra monitor. It's good and was pretty cheap too (around $40 or so). It's a decent option if you can't find a suitable monitor. If you come to Evo, you'll probably see it in action as I'm planning on bringing a "spectator" monitor for the ST event.

Hi all, Hopefully it's okay to post here. Since this is the main SRK thread to showcase arcade cabs, I wanted to mention that focusattack.com is holding a new photo contest called "Snapback". Each month, players and builders can submit a photo of their joystick or arcade cabinet for a chance to win a $50 store gift certificate. Community members and around the net can vote their favorite photos, plus share them on Facebook and Twitter to encourage others to vote. In December, we'll showcase the 10 previous monthly winners for a final vote. The top winner gets a $250 store gift certificate! Hope you'll check it out: http://bit.ly/fa-snapback Vote on photos: http://bit.ly/fa-snapback-vote

Good look son.  Any idea of what kind of lag it has (if any)?

Bernie

No idea about any lag as I'm using the cabinet's monitor as my primary device. The VGA feed is there for spectators. Any lag is probably negligible tho since there are a lot of superguns that use these things but I can't prove anything without proper testing.

Nice. Glad you got that second net city. The guy wouldn't ship it to me but I'm glad someone from Srk picked up. At least I know it will be fixed up well. I'll eventually get a net city one day! One of my favorite cabs.

Bernie

Anyone know where I can buy some replacement nuts+bolts that fit for Sega-style control panels, and also some similar hardware parts for candy cabs? Specifically for Astro City cabs if possible. The last time the cabs were moved I lost some parts that held the back panels of the machine together, along with a few bolts on the control panels.

edit: I found the control panel carriage bolts at akihabarashop.jp. Not sure what to do about the bolts/screws/whatever to put together the other areas of the cab. Any alternative suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
