Title: Re: Aristocrat Slot custom built cab MAME emu Post by: Nash on February 05, 2013, 08:14:39 AM Up and running but not as expected. Unfortunately this cab was a failure due to overheating that was caused by CRT and Computer. I have been advised before that it might be an issue but I didn't listen. In other words it was too packed and no fan extraction could help. I was aiming for an authentic look and simulation of the original cabinets and games. Another issue was the weight of the bloody thing?
Title: Re: Aristocrat Slot custom built cab MAME emu Post by: Nash on February 05, 2013, 08:21:52 AM MODIFICATION OF THE CAB EXTERNALLY AND INTERNALLY
The depth of the cabinet is reduced and modified for LCD 17” display and Laptop PC. Finally the cab is running smooth with no overheatin, size or weight issues. Title: Re: Aristocrat Slot custom built cab MAME emu Post by: Nash on February 05, 2013, 08:23:17 AM :95-
Title: Re: Aristocrat Slot custom built cab MAME emu Post by: Nash on February 05, 2013, 08:27:30 AM At the back there is enough room to move and store small accessories like joysticks, portable keyboard or mouse. The best part is that you don't need to worry about replacing a laptop. Too easy, just unplug the cables and throw the new one in :)
