Atari System 1 Restoration

dj dns has a MM Kit for sale right now for $450 + you get a free empty system 1 cab with it. nows your chance!
 
Been considering it, but lack of room and $$ at the moment. If I had a good way to get it up here I could prob try to swing something.
 
Look great Frizz. One question though and it's not meant as an insult or anything as I would have probably went the paint route as well. It looks to me like you did a killer job installing that side art, vinyl is pretty much the same process, no?
 
Exellent job, very nice. I really like the blue molding, Marble Madness is a great game.
 
Vinyl is much thinner and more of a pain in the ass to work with IMHO. I simply prefer paint to vinyl. That said, I prefer oil based to water based.... this latex stuff is pretty craptastic... (though the smell is MUCH better and the cleanup is a breeze... I've taken to just throwing away my rollers, trays and such when using oil based paint.)

exactly, i think paint coats the cabs and perservs them better then vinyl.. just thing, your redoing the cab because of the vinyl failing so many years later... i just think paint coats and seals the wood making it last longer in life IMO..
