Candy Cabinet made from scratch with wood?

As seen on “show your SF blablabla gallery”, the Virtua Fighter cabinet as been finished, here’s the link to the thread where you can see it by your own eyes…

Dark resurrection to this thread… yea

Finally decided to don’t make a total copy of a comercial cabinet like the Vewlix, but more like inspired by it.

Hope to be updating this thread with different plans and ideas.

Nice resurrection.

Am trying to build something similar too. This will serve to inspire~ :bgrin:

When you’re all done with it, let us know how much it cost because some of us have the same ideas but don’t want to spend a fortune…

does anyone have the pictures saved? because they’re gone now.

Another clown putting his pics on imageshack or some other temporary place. Some people will never learn :frowning:

I think he take them down on purpose, AFAIK.

bump; just found this goody of a thread. :x

I have so many ideas for my candy cab! But no money at all! Haha!

Please, don’t let this thread to die

Finally I’ve been able to fully measure a “candy cab”, wich actually is a chinese knock off I guess…

If anyone ask for it, I’ll post them.

There you go guys. If something isn’t clear, tell me and I’ll try to do something better - I was just using MS Paint. Wich program do you recommend me to do these things? I’ve listened so many times about CAD, AutoCAD and stuff, but don’t know if they serve to draw good plans.

Also, I measured the sticks positions between the edges, and here it is:

BORDER----11----STICK---------------35,5--------------------STICK----24,5--------BORDER

Hope this will help some people, I’m already measuring my TV and all, to make the proper adjustements.

EDIT: Oops, I forgot - I’ve taken a few photos showing the cabinet, but I can’t find my cellphone data cable. When I do, I’ll post them.

nobody cared about it:shake::sad:

this is cool im looking forward to see some sweet custom cabs:tup:

of course we do! it’s just many of us can’t make it! :shake:

thanks man, if I’m lucky next month I’ll start building one of these… :woot:

Don’t forget about a marquee ?? :looney:
