      Hi!

      I finaly take the time to made my very first own bartop (with an obvious theme...)
      Inside we have :
      -Rpi3
      -19" screen
      -Sanwa joystick and buttons (directly on rpi gpio)
      -Adafruit amp Max9744
      -2 8watt 4ohm (i think...) speaker
      -Volume knob
      -Coin mechanism (20cts €)
      -Little pushbutton for player 2 coin when needed

      It's not as fancy as some build we can see here, but i like it :D, Thx retropie to make this kind of build happen!

          @Thak I think that's just the size I would like to build some day, but the images are so tiny it's hard to see. I think you linked to the thumbnail images. You might try editing your links to larger images.

              Very slick build! Is that a coin-op on the back? Can you take a picture of the insides? We like to see under-the-hood lol.

              Also, what kind of wood did you use?

                Hi!
                Yes it's coin-op (20cts €). I like the idea of "paying" your credit, and not just push a button until 9 or more credit...
                I use Mdf wood, or medium wood if you prefere. And a really thin sheet of plastic on the control panel as for the marquée.

                For the inside it's still à mess right now, so after à Little clean-up yes i will link a picture.
