this is a thread rightfully risen from the dead... holy crap those bartops are amazing. Two player gaming on 2 screens must've been the shitz.

That mini big red looks sweet. I wonder if you could mount a brand new 19 inch crt into that.

No... It's way too shallow to fit the yoke. Would need to redesign to make it deeper. As far as the Haruman kit goes, I can't really speak to it since I haven't seen it in person, but by looking at the pictures I can tell you there is all kinds if wrong with his design! But hey, it's only $130!

Here side view... See too shallow: update4.jpg

hm, that mini big red is hell sweet as well!

Oh, and while we're passing around links to commercial options, Jochen sells Bartop-Kits, too. They look quite high quality and he does put a lot of thought into the stuff he makes:
Arcadeforge Bartop.

are you willing to share your CNC files???

Well I don't have the CNC files, because they would be little use to anyone, unless of course you are running the exact same software (MasterCam level 3) and router (Thermwood Model 90) we have. G-Code is pretty machine specific especially when running on a 5 axis router. I did make the CAD files available, so if you want to bring that into your own CAM software you can program it from there.
Here is the DWG files (3.77meg)
Here are the Rhino 3DM files 1.16meg

Looks nice, man! Maybe it's possible to connect two back-to-back for some 2P head-to-head.

Now, each one has its own MV1C inside and a game pad for player 2. In fact they are not even bartops anymore. I put mini pedestals under them so they can stand on their own. Now they look like 2/3 sized MVS 2-13 cabs!

Wow. Very cool.

with a circuit im sure both could run independent and as slaves to each other. 25 pin sockets has lots of room to add selctable outputs
