Most Stylish Enclosure For a Super Gun

I made my super gun a while ago but Its so ugly I just cant take it any more, its built into a old video box supergoose style. Unfortunately instead of looking like the pretty jobs he does mine looks like a jumbled mess over flowing the limited space. I was thinking about gutting an old Japanese Ps2 I had and turning it into the case, another though I had was to buy a mini atx case for it. This case caught my eye in particular PC-9300 USB Aluminum Micro Desktop ATX Computer Case. Very stylish very sleek ect.. also very expensive. However I am just doing cosmetic work and I’ve had the actual system built for a while, transferring it shouldn’t be hard at all. I think the bigger case would not only cover up my sloppy work but the extra surface area would allow me to do add allot more knobs and switches and allow me to do some of the other odd ball things I’ve been wanting to do, like setting up some plugs to take playstation 2 controllers ect… I don’t know about you guys but I always have friends saying “oo.. I I had a ps2/xbox/sense/ ect. . controller I would so whoop your ass!”, and I would like to give them the opportunity to have their asses whooped with their controller of choice, plus it would just look snazzy. But any how, back to the main topic, does any one else know of any really sleek looking boxes that would make good homes for a supergun? And if any one has had any experience cutting holes in metallic cases I would also appreciate it if they could tell me what kind of tools I need to make reasonably clean cuts into an aluminum case.

One problem I see my self having with a large case is having to get a new harness, only about 18 bucks but my main issue is on the larger systems they are sooo ugly with all the wires going coming out of the side and hooking on to the board, I was thinking about possibly using some very large gauge mulit conductor wire to try and cut down on the mass of wire dangling about. I was wondering if any one else has seen a system with a similar harness connection and if so could they please link me some pictures

I like this one:



I forget who made it, someone from these forums though.

I'm using an old genesis 2 casing,looks pretty badass actually,works out well ton the right side is a slot for something sega diddn't use,so after i took the board out its empty,and noticed the jamma harness fits perfectly in there.A ps2 casing would look pretty cool to though,i dunno,whatever you like better.

try to post some pics

Ok,i will try,but my digi camera sucks,its low quality,but you get the idea.Ill try and take a few tomorrow

I like mine

yo thats crazy i likes that

that slot on the right side is to connect the segacd, not "something sega didn't use".

O,Sorry and thanks for ripping my head off

Thats just one,it looks nicer when its hooked up,i have a blue led in place where the old red one was on the genesis,not bad,my first neo project.Also between the two credit buttons is the snk logo,sorry about the glare,like i said ill get better pics once its done

I tried putting an MV1-C in a genesis 1... Messed it up. So i put it in my extra saturn... I think a genesis 1 or 2 would make an awesome SG case tho....

Would you post some pictures of their Saturn mv-1c??

I would like to see what someone else did with the same idea

I'll post them when i get them (soon).

The biggest difference between mine and yours is that I removed the black casing from the mv1-c.

Thanks for all the imput guys all thoes cases look super snazzy.

That is just awesome NGT. What would make me super happy is to see if the Saturn could actually be made to work, lol

Seriously though man, that is awesome, simply awesome.

I completed my saturn PCB...

I realy didn't want to copy NGT's Idea but I went through a Genesis I case and didn't have anything else to use... I did a few things different tho....

I'll have pics available as soon as broken sets up my new gallery........
