I cant find the black cardboard monitor surround for the Crystal Castles I have so I'm considering making one. Has anyone made one of these.

If you want to give me a week or so, I can draw it up in CAD and get the measurements sorted out. The geometry of it is pretty simple. I need to make one for my own Crystal Castles project.
Cardboard bezels, one of the main reasons I dislike most Atari cabinet.
What's the thickness of cardboard to use? Where to get it? Supplier?
Wow, I feel exactly the opposite. The black cardboard bezels are very easy and cheap to reproduce. When you have a plastic bezel/shroud and that's cracked, broken or missing, then what do you do?
I mean that Atari didn't have any artwork around their monitors, just an ugly black bezel. That is fine on later cabinets with 25" monitors, but on a 19" you really should have some artwork. Just look at how Midway handled the Namco games they licensed versus how Atari did. I think that Dig Dug and Pole Position are the only games that had artwork.

So whats the difference between the one for Crystal Castles and the one ArcadeShop sells?
