One request can you mark our monitor deposit amounts that are going towards the final purchase?

Thanks a lot @Cereth

Sorry for leaving you hanging on those Pokken. I decided I wanted to finish my current cabs before purchasing new ones.

np, and yep the amount is noted in my internal sheet. I'm still asking around distributors in the area to get some tubes, we'll see how it goes

please let me know if anything is wrong.

I paid a deposit for 1 x green. I didn’t see my name listed.

Yep, you are correct. It is in my master sheet, I'll update it next time the page is updated!

 

[Kidkaos]

Any kind of an estimate time line when the cutes will be completed?

November? December?

Hello People
Lets make some updates.

Cabinet painted and came to me yesterday. I have tested it wiith GREEN which is my favaorite color . I think it looks cool.
The new Bezel is ready and tested
19" Monitor tested normally and Tate mode.

The frame is working very well with normal mode. But if you want to use it TATE MODE, you have to remove the Wings and chasis table. So i will put some extra wood table for your chasis on the middle bottom. And i will put some standoff, to not make any problem about the Cable's length.

So i have tested all the details and everything is looks good for me now. All the datas are ready to send CNC for the 120pc of the cabinet.

I have shipped a frame to @Rg111 to test it with his CRT tube too, to check it double Thanks to him again to ship to me his original Frame . After he check it with his CRT, all the datas will go to CNC CUT. That means we will start to big production process officially. I knoww the Frame problem cost very long time for US. But i have to be sure for everything


Thanks to everyone for their great efforts. It will never happen without this community

I think the CNC CUT and Bending process will take 15 days maximum. In the meantime, i will complete the Smoke Pleksiglass mold, and complete the all artwork, stickers etc.

The plan is complete the 40pc of the cabinet in 45 days. I will work with some of friends to make it faster.

I ordered green and I’m planning running this tate so these pictures are pure gold! Looks really good.

 

[twistedsymphony]

this is some really impressive work here.

 

[Epyc]

Wow, superb work @hursit! I sent you the dimensions for the 19" LCD monitor.

I'm hoping the size is as close to the WG 19" K7000 Monitor as possible. If not, I can search for other LCD alternatives.

or maybe someone here with a WG 19" can do some measurements for comparison?

 

[Derick2k]

Gotta admit, happy I got you them color codes, cause that green looks on point like the original, very nice work my friend

 

[Rg111]

And thank you, D. I ordered a green one and I'm stoked!

 

[Kidkaos]

This looks amazing. Thank you so much for the update @hursit

Excellent work and thank you again to everyone who contributed. My excitement continues to build!

 

[asra]

I remain committed to getting one (or two ) of these once a monitor option becomes available for eu-customers

 

[djsheep]

Damn @hursit -- looks so good. Is anyone in Australia getting one?

Thanks mate,
and nobody in AUS for now. if we want it, we have to find a distributor in AUS too

Since the cabs are going into production, I will be paying the second half of the production deposit this week. I think it is safe to assume that the time to pay the remainder on the cabinet cost will be fast approaching. I'd expect to be paying the remainder at the end of October, maybe at the latest. What that means for any buyers is that you will need to be ready to pay the balance then!

Since this is going into production, I've also made a final decision on colors. 27 Green, 27 Pink, 26 Yellow. That leaves 5 Green, 8 Pink, and 8 Yellow left. I might still be able to shuffle that within the next 2 weeks or so, but if you want a specific color and haven't ordered yet, you'll probably want to do that now. I have backup plans just in case, but I don't want to resort to that.

From here, I need to figure group orders for buttons/sticks, PSU, and speakers. I'm still openly looking at various old arcade distributors in the area to see if any have stockpiles of tubes, but haven't really gotten anything yet. Wouldn't count on it.

Any other questions please ask! If you are already ready to pay the remainder and are comfortable with how the order is proceeding, I will begin accepting those now. If closer to time I haven't received a payment, I will contact you based on the contact info I have recorded from the order form; you may also reach out if you want to inquire on how much is paid/due.

I think that's it for now!

If I can't find a CRT monitor, what type of LCD should I be looking to get?
