howdy neighbors I recently purchased a second playchoice 10 countertop and I really want to pimp my cab ! I'm planing to modify it to look like an upright single monitor playchoice 10 cab i.e. black paint with with side art & a small playchoice 10 marquee above the monitor and the control panel & the light gun.



I'm pulling a ton of images off of google but I was wondering if my fellow klovers would be willing to take some high res pix of there cabs post them here or email them to me at [email protected] and or also scan up any playchoice art or marquees they have laying around and do the same ill be posting pix of the completed project in the future

thanks !

post some pictures when your done. I would be interested to see what it Franken-Choice looks like.
 
I think it's a great idea, assuming it's done well. The countertop with mini-side art and a marquee? that would be sweet.

I would send pics of mine... but it's just black, the T-molding sits on top waiting to be installed, and the CPO is flaking.
 
GOT THE counter top on Tuesday ( THANKS umomou! :)

waiting to get a copy of duck hunt so I can see if i figured out how to hook up the light gun correctly.
picked up my supply's at kragen/home depot/liquor store BONDO,SANDPAPER,PRIMER,RED APPLE PAINT,CLEAR GLOSS,CANNED AIR,MASKING TAPE,MASKING PAPER,TRASH BAGS,GOGGLES,PAINTING MASK,BUD-LIGHT.


I decided to go with red apple instead of black
I'm not going to bother removing the laminate/vinyl
just sanded a bit and applied bondo my bondo skills suck

the peace of wood in the picture is just a peace of wood I used to test the primer & paint color
comments on the color?

This stick actually looks like the ball is way to big and massive for the Countertop. The stick part also looks like one of the china clones of a Sanwa. The hint of green tells me it's a bao lien switch. (Clone)

I think you got a 35mm ball top for it.

They actually come in 30mm standard but you can find a smaller one (25mm or was it 28mm.) which would match better with the size of the original Nintendo sticks, which look like this.
