[CABINET] The Time Machine

[rtkiii]

This is my 1st Mame build I did back in March of 2013. I took an old Dig Dug Cabinet that had been converted to use NEO GEO MVS system. In short I gutted it and put in what I wanted.

Custom designed the Marquee, Bezel and Control Panel. Left the cabinet untouched because it was a Dig Dug and I like the nestologia of that.

I'd say this is 98% complete. I need to tweak the bezel artwork some and reprint. I'd like to get the coin slots to light up, they function but no lights.

Looks sweet!

Where did you get your artwork printed?

[rtkiii]

I printed it here at work on paper. Which most arcade are baffled by but it is free vs $50+ - but I'm cheap!

Here is a good place to find things you need printed. Not bad prices..again I'm just cheap

I heard that, I'm all about saving a buck too.

I may print my own too, but I one of m ideas works it will need to be translucent, which I believe scratches the home brew idea.

Personally I use a local sign shop to do my printing, they do a fantastic job, apply the bezel decal for me, and don't seem to mind the use of copyrighted material. If you mention it's a hobby, they'll probably let you off cheap.

Just call them if you have one around, most of the time all they ask is for a hi-res .psd or equivalent, and the attention to detail is second to none.

All this talk about bezels and printing locally has me jazzed to get this finished

Tweaked my bezel and going to look for someone in town to help. I always thought this would be a waste of their time
