I have had a lot of the parts sitting around what seems like forever and they haven't got the attention they should. Every time I walked into the game room, the Quantum cabinet just stared at me in its unfinished state. So on the rainy Sunday morning I decided to get in gear and get the cabinet and apply the sideart. I had the front art applied for a couple months so I just needed to do the sides.

I watched Rich's cardboard tube trick video and went to work. Here are some progress pics.

I have to say the art went on beautifully and without any air bubbles at all. Thank you TOG, PA, and 3M.

Now I just need to begin putting my repro PCB together. Not looking forward to that one.
 
Looks great Kev. I always cringe when I see those skinny little CP bump-outs on that cab. Man, one good hit with fat flesh club and they're history.
 
Wow. That looks fantastic!

I had one of them Quantums about 12 years ago. Fun game. Cool sounds too.

That turned out fantastic! I would say you have the application of the art down to a fine art! Hopefully i can come close when i do some of my games sideart.
 
Looks good, are you planning to put an amp monitor in there or use a 6100?

It will be the Amp. Have one waiting in a box for it. Only parts left are to find a marquee and build the board. A bit freaked about populating the board, but it should go ok. A good winter project... hmmm, I said the same thing last year too :D

:) It can seem like a lot of soldering, but if you keep at it you might surprise yourself. Most of the people that have reported back to me say it's been bad IC's that they run into, not due to a soldering error on their part.
