Hey rcaido, man, I love your game room. I wish I live in your area. I'd be in your house all day playing SSF2X. I know you main Gief, so we could practice all day. Also, your Captain America Stick Looks awesome. Where did you get it?..... lol.

I'm asking because it kind of looks like a Red Octane empty Stick case I sold on SRK a long time ago.

Dude, you really did a great job. The stick looks awesome. I love custom (wooden) arcade stick. Too bad you don't see them anymore. All you see now are those Madcatz fighsticks...

Yeah i really dont get the popularity with those Madcatz sticks, the pcbs are terrible & casing is too light for me. I really like my sticks heavy, i thought the Panzer stick from Jansen was perfect until i got a Blast City Control panel w/ housing. That's my main stick for consoles now.

Oh, is that what it is? I thought the stick in the pic was a Sega Saturn HSS-0130. I need to get me one of those HSS-0130 sticks. They look sexy as hell. I have two Egret II but I need one of those for console play.

The black ones are single player Kraylix custom cabs.

With the SFV coming along, i ended up putting my PS4 into my Kraylix cab. I removed the ps360+ and put universal brooks PCBs.

I love the Playchoice and the Red Tent, so awesome! All the cabs look sweet, stay away from 8 buttons, you should know better than that.

Rcaido, could you do me a solid and give me the measurement of the Capcom Kraylix from the bottom of the cab to the bottom of the CP, I'd like to know what the leg room cleareance is as it looks pretty comfy, also if you wouldn't mind the distance from the end of the CP to the start of the base, I hope I'm making some sort of sense here, I'm in the works of designing something...also, a suggestion, have you thought of adding some spacers to the new LCD, you must have changed it since PS4 is 1080p only amirite? Anyway, I was thinking you could use some sort of inner bezel with ir exposed...just a thought.

Yeah from the floor to the very bottom of the CP is 22" 3/4 & for the leg room is 8 1/2" to the end of the CP. The single kraylix is actually more comfortable though, its 23" off the floor & 10 1/2" away from the CP. As for adding bezel, im pretty much done doing anything with the cab of fixing it up. As long as it plays im ok with it.

blakeb8111 - Kraylix cabs are awesome, i would go w/ 2 singles though. Its hard to find a 32" that doesn't have very low input lag compared to the 23" which there are a abundance to choose form.

Thanks man, I have a design I've been working on and I was thinking of going 24" cleareance and 12" to the end of the CP. I know it seems like a lot but I like to make it with even measurements, it's just a thing and I was thinking perhaps it was gonna be too tall but I'm glad you gave me that info as it seems that I'm kind of in the right area more or less. I really appreciate it.

The design is based on these designs, I like the straight cuts.

Delta 32

My plan is to use this 32" Bravia LCD I have, I have 2 of them, they play really well, haven't had any issues with lag, I'm sure there's some like in all LCDs but in all honesty it has worked very well for me in fighters, shooters, MAME, all sorts of stuff. The LCD is 60hz and it has a decent S-Video as well, I've 1cc Gradius Deluxe in it, so that's something. The TV measures 32" width so I'm making a 32" square covered in glass to allow rotation, I have some drawings and some computer plans, I'll share when it's a more tangible project, I've been toying with this idea for quite a while now and I just haven't commited yet as I have redesigned it time and again but I'm finally coming close to being happy with what I got.

I ended up rearranging my garage arcade & transformed into arcade/gym. Needed some gains haha

I've been meaning to post an update but it was always a mess. Had a gathering Friday, so here is an update.
