Biscuits work well for meWhat did you use to secure the new bottom? Biskets? Dowels? Or just inside blocking?

Ditto on this.Not a troll here. But honestly, I usually have zero interest in your projects because you won't tell us what it is. Mystery projects just are not interesting at all.
If you want people to guess that's fine. I'm sure you get some fun out of that. And maybe some future project ideas too! But after a couple of days, it would be nice if you shared the secret of what you're working on. Then I'd be HIGHLY interested in following your progress on most if not every project you post.

When I post what they are, people pester me about them.
It's far easier to find time to do designs during meetings and such than it is to build and test.
There's no point in posting what it is until I at least have hardware in hand.
It's not like anyone has ever showed interest in the other bronze age boards I redesigned once they build and tested and posted for sale.

ROM, CPU, and Speech fit nicely on a single board.Yeah, I get it. So just state clearly up front "This is a redesign of the Sega G-80 system on a single PCB. I'm doing this for myself and they won't be for sale."
Writing all of that up isn't very fun or interesting.I don't want to own a redesigned board in most cases (exceptions exist...I actually bought one of your Warlords boards).
But I find it really interesting to watch the process unfold. The choices made, the reasoning behind it, the tradeoffs involved, etc.
I'm sure I'm not alone in that.
About Bronze age stuff, usually not.Do they pester you or don't they?![]()

FTFY!Or be honest about why you're posting it - to passive/aggressively brag.

Strange enough, my cab seems like an odd ball that had lam on the bottom part and top. Other Trak 10's had the bottom painted black and lam only on the top. The top part of the side is glued to the bottom making relaminating the bottom a pain in the are, but I might still do it. Otherwise if I end up painting the bottom part black it will still be "factory" correct.Are you going to relaminate or paint to match?

Since Trak 10 was the "cost reduction model", I've seen a number of the few existing all seem to have some odd variations. Some have a extra bottom base and others have different bracketing inside… I think Atari was just trying to get them out the door lolI was thinking the same thing. Maybe you have a rare prototype!?
Perhaps they did the first one like that and they quickly realized just as you did....it's a royal pain.

I wondered if anyone would notice, lol.Dig the custom Tank III bezel![]()
