Very nice Tim! I bet you're glad you went with the blue colour theme instead of red - there's just something about the blue t-moulding.

 

Can I ask why you decided to drill holes thru the panel for bolts to mount the joysticks instead of "blind" screws from underneath?

Because i'm stupid! Haha, and i didnt even THINK to do that! Its been added to my 'to-alter' list for the next one! Thanks for the positive comments and for all your help along the way.

 

I'm so glad i went with the blue instead of red as well; in a round about way i guess i owe it to you for not having red t-molding in stock at that time! THANKS CHRIS!

Thought i'd share a few more pics.

 

The Blue HAPP comptetitions arrived which finishes the CP off. I ordered the glass for the screen friday afternoon so i'm hoping that will be available early in the week.

 

The control panel is wired up and functioning.

 

I went into town today to buy a motherboard, cpu, ram and hdd but the shop was closed. ARGHH SUNDAY!!

 

Ah well, i've had fun this weekend. I set my pc up and i've been playing it heaps! Its so much different to playing games with a keyboard or joystick!

While it looks awesome I'm trying to figure out how you stand/kneel/sit at the machine to play it..Or is is designed for midgets or small children?

 

I agree that the machine looks awesome, but for tall people like me it could be mighty uncomfortable because I would have to either sit sideways or lean forward to reach the control panel and not knock my knees on the cabinet.
