Fruity Nut Posted February 24 Report Share Posted February 24 So finally finished my small bartop icade conversion. The cabinet lent itself perfectly for the job although was certainly tough trying to squeeze everything in! So I bought off Ebay an ION Icade off eBay for £18, a HP 15" 4:3 touchscreen monitor for £12 and a Dell micro PC for £40. I ordered an Ipac, Pac drive and a load of buttons from Arcade World along with a Barcrest button and 5v leds off eBay. I had to cut the top pieces of the side panels off the icade to accommodate the monitor which I stripped out of it's casing. I wanted the sound to be pretty good as that's the best part for me, the nostalgic machine sounds and music so I fixed a 2.1 edifier PC speaker system to it. The sub on the top and the satellite speakers in the back as didn't want them sticking out. I simply used sticky back metal effect plastic on the sides. I replaced the control panel for a nice bit of wood. I used 10 main buttons, an exit button on the left side and a coin one on the right as well as 2 small buttons I use for volume under the fake coin slot which I wired to a USB on the PC. I am very pleased with the way it turned out 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruity Nut Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 Took a gambling awareness sticker off my old reel king machine today. Cut it up and slapped it on my little cab to finish it off nicely 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
