I recently picked up an old Tron cab that was severely water damaged. It looked like it had been sitting in 12" of water for months. The entire bottom 1/3 was destroyed beyond repair.
As everyone knows, these cabinets are near impossible to find even empty at a reasonable price. After a bit of searching, I came upon a fellow KLOVer DPtwiz(Brett) who makes CNC milled replica arcade cabinets to exacting specs.
After receiving my cab this past weekend, I was absolutely blown away by the quality and attention to detail.
While picking up the cab, he was nice enough to allow me a look at his shop and explained the painstaking process required to do what he does. The entire thing was an incredible experience.
Though I didn't realize it prior, he obtains a real cabinet for each model he offers to ensure a 100% perfect replacement and will only add a cabinet to his list of replacements if he has an actual donor unit to ensure a perfect match.
After seeing the quality on the Tron cab, I decided to also order a Ms Pac replacement as mine is also beyond repair. After spending months on restoration of my Pac-Man cab(which is still unfinished), I decided to go the easy route and order a replacement from Brett to prevent the ordeal of bondoing, prep work and painting my tired Ms Pac cab only to have it look half as good as a replacement would.
Thanks again for the awesome service Brett...I can't wait to come pick up the Ms Pac when it is ready
Anyone considering purchase of a replacement cab from him should most definitely go for it! You will be blown away by the quality this guy puts into his work.
Even beyond the quality of work, Brett is a stand up guy. It was an absolute pleasure learning about how he does what he does. He is an absolute asset to the collector community with what he does. He barely breaks even on the cabinets he builds and it is clear he does this out of a passion for the hobby rather than for profit.
Thanks again Brett
