Hey guys 'n gals,
I've been tossing around the idea of making a bartop machine from scratch or perhaps another existing bartop cab if one is suggested to me. What I am a little uncertain on is the dimensions required. I have been doing some research but I thought I might come to you all and see if anyone else has done it.
My idea was to make one Tapper-"themed". I mean it would be for a bar afterall lol. I would probably use a...bootleg multiboard for this...I don't know. That seems like the easiest/cheapest route to go but I am completely open to suggestions of all kinds.
Perhaps it is best to buy an existing one and modify that to my tastes? Tbbk and I had planned to pick up a couple bartop games at the last super auction but the pickings were less than ideal.
Anyway, my craziest idea was to build one in the shape of a pony keg laying over on its side. So like 1/4 to 1/2 of it would be cut out for the screen & CP. That way from the sides, top, and back it would look like a wood keg. I am thinking this might be a crap ton of work though.
Anyone ever tried to make anything like this before?
