The following will detail the
conversion/restoration of this cabinet.
BACK
Started with a hacked up
'woody' cab. Who knows, it could have been a frogger or
something at one time, but I couldn't find any markings inside.
I think I'm going to try for a flight-stick oriented shooter,
and I'll add a spinner for good measure. |

The control panel had a
million holes in it, so I'll cut this metal sheet to size, weld
it in place, and then re-drill the holes I need. I'm thinking a
joystick, a spinner, at least one fire button (the stick will
have 2-3 buttons), player 1 and 2 buttons, and perhaps a coin
button. |

Just to keep it interesting,
I picked up TRON repro handles from Groovy Game Gear.
I may even go with a tron theme for the marquee, bezel and cpo
underlay. |

|
|
So I now have the parts I
need (except t-molding) to get most of this project going:
Stick, buttons, encoder and panel. |
