Wow, that looks great! Mine won't look anywhere near that professional. I have gone a different path, as my machine was never intended to be used again as an Animal Kaiser machine, so I didn't need to save any of the internal parts, or control panel style. I got the cab itself for $350AUD, then...

Hey everyone, Recently picked up an Animal Kaiser cab that I plan to convert to a small form factor 2-player MAME machine. I will be gutting the cab and then installing a GroovyMAME PC + an ipac. I love these little form factor candy style cabs, and I was very excited when I found one locally...

The legend is real :D

Built in cupholders make everything better. It's the law. <iframe src="https://giphy.com/embed/l2JdSP4o5EZkTU16o" width="480" height="366" frameBorder="0" class="giphy-embed" allowFullScreen></iframe><p><a href=" View: https://giphy.com/gifs/season-3-the-simpsons-3x24-l2JdSP4o5EZkTU16o ">via...

This is so cool! My Namco Exceleena was the first candy cab I ever bought and still my personal favourite of the 9 I currently own. There is something so stylish about the blue 60s Batmobile design :D I have downloaded this manual, thanks for all of the hard work translating it! Amazing stuff!

Thanks heaps @RandomRetro I will use this as a starting point and go chat to some glass shops. First step, converting to metric 😁

Hey @RandomRetro did you hear anything back from the glass shop? Thanks.

What would be bloody fantastic @RandomRetro Keep me posted for sure.

Hi everyone, are there any Aero City owners out there who have a measurement file for getting the glass cut? Mine came with no glass and while I can measure it up myself (and will do that if needed) I am wondering if anyone has a cutting file for the glass that I can give to a glass cutter. Thanks!

To be honest, if I had the cash, I would buy a whole bunch of Taito stools. But they are just too expensive :( Especially when I would need 15 of the bastards.

Yeah, the lineup is not in its final form yet. I do plan to tate the Aero and it doesn't suit where I currently have it. When I finish it off, I will finalise the lineup. Still got heaps to do before the Aero is properly finished.

Spent last night moving cabs around to shuffle the project Aero into the lineup so I could clean up my garage. I put it next to my two Astro City cabs. It kind of bugs me that it sticks out so far compared to the Astros and Atomiswaves 🤣

Thanks, I will contact @hoagtech and ask him about the rubber strip. My decals will arrive in the post soon and I am utterly terrified about applying them. I have never applied decals on anything before and I know it can be a pain in the ass. Yeah, the cab was a total bargain and I was super...

Got the control panel repro today, very happy with it. I also got super lucky and managed to find a bezel that fits the cab almost perfectly. That was an awesome stroke of luck. It's got a small cut out of the base, but I will cover that with black cardboard. A question for anyone who may...

I highly doubt it's that good :) But thanks!
