Part 14: Front Plexiglass and Bezel

Game on Graphics do Bezel art - but I could not be bothered with all that. I got an idea from another arcade machine builder - just paint it black inside!


I first fitted the plexiglass - marked where the Monitor corners were and then applied some masking tape on the inside. 


Here is me applying the fourth coat of paint! (yes it needed a lot of work and I had to wait many hours between coats...). 



It looked rubbish on the inside - but the other side looked great!

Fitting was a pain as I had to get out all the dust and stuff from the monitor and plexiglass. 
I ended up painting the screw heads black. I was hoping to get screw caps that I thought would look more professional - but they are hard to get hold of over here...

As I did not want the unit to get dusty - I brought it inside. I slapped a PC and amp pin there and it was operational!


Solomon trying it out again...
