Ive been getting alot of requests on this since the custom sideart and thought I post
These could be silkscreened and would like to make them in a way that would fit both Space Duel and Tempest conversions and maybe even the gravitar panels.
So those with Tempests in needs would you need the spinner version or something custom to fit Ram Controls roller??

So post differences and prefernces so I can see what I can come up with for this.

I can do these without the need of preorders taking the sales from the sideart
for those interested.

The SideArt is shipping this week to those that have allready ordered
 
I'd like to see what you come up with.

I just picked up a NOS Tempest to MH CPO.

I want to be able to use the roller from RAM, however, have to see what it all looks like once the parts come in.
 
I would for sure purchase your new CPO for my Space Duel conversion. I am going to install a RamControls roller. Without removing the backing so I can take it off again, I am planning to lay the new art on the panel so I can accurately mark the holes. I will then modify/cut the panel to suit and then I will probably have it powdercoated. Finally, I will apply the new CPO and install everything else.

Rich, it is possible for you to ship along with the CPO, a separate printed paper template that would show exactly where all of the holes go for the buttons and for spinner and for roller? Maybe you could have a paper template for each cab (T & SD & Original). If the CPO material is made to suit any cab and is therefore oversized in certain dimensions for specific cabs, the template would be useful for accurately locating the required sections to cut off.

If the new CPO is silkscreened, would it be recommended (or even possible) to laminate it with clear self-adhesive polyester or mylar or something to protect the artwork surface or is that simply unneccessary? If this is a good idea, I'd be willing to buy the material from you if you make it available or I would pay extra to have you apply it and ship the cpo with this addition. I'll be happy with whatever you decide to produce. I'm just tossing some thoughts out there.

I'm hoping that enough other people are interested to get this to move forward. I definitely am in for one.

Yes templates could be included no problem

But the cpos would be silkscreened on the reverse side of polycarbonate and 3m adhesive backed just like all orginals so no need for laminating/ clear coating.

But there may be some new developments on the front stay tooned...

I'd be interested in a Major Havoc cpo for Space Duel conversion cab. Especially if it were customized for the Ram roller controller.
 
Darin has my original Atari films for the Tempest and Space Duel/Gravitar conversions. I think he will be making an announcement soon. Of course the screens are designed with the spinner in mind, since that is what they came with originally.

rich...

i would be interested in the tempest conversion MH cpo. when i bought mine the seller hacked/added the trackball setup. it current cpo looks a little craptastic, but works great. i could take some pics if you need them. chris
 
I think that if we're talking about making repro CPO's to incorporate the roller, perhaps someone can step up and offer metal panels with the hole already cut out of it.

I would be in for a Space Duel cabinet CP with a pre-stamped hole for the roller...
 
Count me in for a Space Duel -> MH CPO which includes template and holes for mounting the RAM Controls Roller. For me, this is how the game was intended!
 
I'd be interested in the tempest conversion for the repro roller. Have to play MH with the roller, it isn't the same with the spinner IMO.
 
I am doing an SD conversion right now with a Ram Controls roller. The Space Duel conversion CPO with roller would help me out a lot. I would be in for two.

And where are the marquees available? I haven't found that yet.

I'm in for two sets of SD/MH with the roller incorporated along with new control panels pre-drilled for the roller mounting. I don't have the skill set to do this but would certainly support anyone who did.
