Adultery Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 So my wife's birthday was over this past weekend, and she got *me* a present! I still can't believe she managed to find X-Arcade's site and order me something without any help at all! I spent the whole day working on it! Now I'll be gettin hammered tonite and playing bowling til I puke!I have some more trim work to do (especially around the 2nd monitor, you can see the cables through the gap), and I had to move the 2nd monitor up about 4" to accommodate it, but it's playable. Now I have to order an iPac dammit! Using the controller to press start on 3-button games just isn't doing it for me, and I had to get a mounting plate from Suzo-Happ anyways so I ordered a bunch of buttons and put them in already (1p and 2p start, coin buttons, pinball flipper buttons).I'll also have to get a new piece of artwork for the CP, and I'm thinking about hitting up Groovy Game Gear for a spinner and steering wheel attachment.Anyways, here it is in its current state:Who knew bowling and golf could actually be fun??? LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draco1962 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I've got lots of bits, blade sharpening tool, flexible extender. Got bits for grinding, cutting, sanding, burnishing. If I use 1/10 of it in my remaining lifetime I will be amazed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adultery Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 Yeah, but if you get it from GGG, it also has a neat steering wheel for driving games:http://groovygamegear.com/webstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=86&products_id=268&zenid=46lrlt7gdpv90c4fffdjefiaa2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
