Interest check:
Arcade/fightstick display stand.

These are handmade in QLD from a variety of woods and are able to withstand the height/weight of all the contemporary and legacy fightsticks.
The example here is Camphor Laurel.

I hope to offer pricing in the $60 - $80 region as I am still in the early stages of arrangements with the woodworkers.

Let me know if you even have a passing interest. Thanks for your continued support. Have a great weekend!

Terminal blocks are fine for mains voltage. Proper blocks will be rated for the voltage and current going through.
 
On 5th September Australia Post parcel service prices go up about 5%, slightly lower prices for letters.

Looking at about $10 minimum now for any parcel.

These are amazing! Might be something I’ll consider down the line for space saving purposes.

Awesome, I'm sure you will treat her well my friend :thumbsup: . The seller is one of the very first people I met playing fighting games online 15 years ago, nicest guy too. Wouldn't be around if it weren't for him!

One of the easiest and most transparent purchases I've made yet. Super cool dude with real verbose communication and extra care from start to finish.

Glad to know he's been a part of your journey too. The cab's definitely going to get some love, I've been wanting another 2P cab for the longest.

Would easily drop him the A+ feedback if he was on here!
 
All the goods bits are there , bit of a scrub and some basic replacements and that astro will be good to go 🤘🤙


Yes the Astro is one of the most iconic candy cabs , second to an E2 😂...

100% agree! Part of me has regret going for a pair of astros and a pair of blasts instead of 4x astros....but.. there's no point having regrets now :D

With the amount you pay for an E2, you can get 4x Astros and have 2x dedicated vertical cabs so the "rotation" mech feature becomes invalid hahaha :D
 
Because they have a monitor rotation mechanism in them making it very easy for one person to take the monitor panel off and rotate the monitor. You don’t need to completely remove it from the cab like an Astro

Also, the E2 is a very commonly seen cab in Japanese arcades, people see them while visiting Japan and want one

And it’s pink
 
And because they open up like a lambo :)

I'm definitely not hating on the e2, hell if I could get one for a decent price I'd probably get one and make it a shmup cab, but the prices they're going for is mental and definitely not within reach for me.

I know @orio1 is lucky enough to have one and I can't wait to see it in its full glory!
