Very nice build !
-
@cyperghost thanks :D
Yes, even at only 4/5th of the size it weighs at least 40kg, maybe 50kg. You can push it around quite easily, it stands on 4 plastic knobs. But lifting it is definitely a two men job! -
10-12v on pin 8 in the scart connector could also power on the TV
-
@DorkVonWaterfall cool, thanks for letting me know. But I guess there is no way to switch it to the AV channel with help of the scart connector?
-
@9600baud i guess you have the pie connectet via rca now,right ? (Because the old tv has no HDMI)
So, a simple rca to scart adapter should solve that problem... -
And then you plug in minijack to rca audiocable and you can have audio on the tv aswell, no need for extra amplifier and speakers
-
Very cute!
The 4/5ths size looks really good.
-
4/5 is a great idea! I appreciate the videos that show it being played, as you get a much better sense for it's size. You get all of the nostalgia (artwork, iconic form, etc.) without the imposing presence of a full-sized cabinet. It's also kid-friendly!
-
@caver01 Yeah, thanks! The kids of my colleague, 7 and 5, played it and it's perfect size for them :)
-
Great cabinet! Seems an ideal size for a small appartment.
What is the plastic frame you used around the coin door?
-
@Pads You mean this?
It's part of the coin door. All sheet metal. -
@9600baud Yes I didn't realize it was part of the coin installation
Thanks!
