Keeping with the DIY theme for just a moment longer, you've GOT to check out this Scratch Built PONG cabinet built by tnpshow over at the arcadecontrols.com forums.
This thing looks darn near identical to the original PONG cabinets of back in the day. As to why he decided to build it, tnpshow had this to say: "It's my first scratchbuilt cab and I decided to build it for a few reasons:
1. It's pretty cost efficient materials-wise 2. It's got great historical value 3. It's a great, easy shape cab to build (for your first one). 4. No original PCB or PC required - this thing is as simple as it gets! 5. Artwork is as simple as it gets (ok the control panel wasn't so simple, but we had the right tools at work). With the pre-laminated chipboard, there's no painting either!"
I'm hearing rumbles of this being Mamey material, and I've definitely got to agree, this is a top notch job! Scratch Built PONG
