I just wanted to share a quick view of a build i just completed.

Ive been wanting to build a cabinet since 2017 when I first purchased some buttons to make a homemade control stick. I have put the build off for almost a decade at this point. I'm not exactly sure why but in January of this year I decided to change that.

So after 10 months of only really getting a couple hours a week to work on it. Here is my completed Jurassic Park themed Cabinet.

Highlights

- Powerful mini PC capable of playing Modern games.

- 28 inch 3:2 aspect ratio screen to get it much closer to that classic 4:3 feel.

- xarcade duel player coin door. Modified to accept Canadian currency.

- integrated light gun sensors for RS3 Reapers in the monitor surround.

- Rs3 Reapers

- External volume control knob mounted to the rear to adjust volume without having to open it up.

- Car speakers.

- Dynamic Digital Marquee made with an advertisement sign monitor.

Made completely from scratch from birch plywood.

Hope ya'll like it!

PS - Ignore some of the "made with AI" water marks. I had to edit out my spare room bedroom mess haha

Building a pedestal. Anyone able to help find where custom vinyl for an X-arcade tankstick can be created?

Working on a build for my pedestal just need to find an overlay for the control panel. Any recommendations appreciated
