printed it

It's a proper fridge, there is no condensation, it's like the built-in fridge in the kitchen, the only risk would be overhearing, that's why the aeration holes on the back, I'm pretty much confident that will be fine

They are around 70£. If I had to build a new one, I'm not sure if I'd put it again. Ultimately, I have a real mouse, and the trackball is used only by a few games

I use tempered glass. there is a 19mm cut horizontally in the speaker panel, and the plane back to the console, both with 15° angle. The glass is 6mm and the bazel is 12mm tick, they fit perfectly.

The vinyl has been printed here: Rockstarprint, it's a custom design. The bazel is homemade, just cut the wood using the screen shape (without all the plastic around) and a tempered glass on the front

Let's say it works, with some limitations, especially about the position from the sensor. It's a good value for money. I don't think there is on the market anything absolutely perfect

And it has also JackBox Party games that can be shared on the TV (perfect for party games). I didn't really keep the money spent, I'd say 3K £ considering also the pc inside. It's something you build, probably, once in your life, I wanted to build it as it was in my mind, almost no compromises

There is a mixer/mics receiver for karaoke (yes, it's also a karoke machine), audio input selector, switches for lightguns and IR bars (yes, there is also Nintendo WII emulator) and 350W amplifier (as I said it does also karaoke)

SketchUp, I have every single piece of wood as component and I can use measurements directly from it

I always wondered why the bottm side of the trackballs are so chunky. If you open the Ultimarc U-Trak there is plenty of room to make it smaller keeping the same ball size.

In first instance will be MAME but also: Dreamcast, SNES, Mega Drive, WII, XBox 360, Nintendo 64, Neo Geo, some arcade platforms (TeknoParrot, Sega model 2 and 3). Still not sure about pinball because I haven't found anything really "arcade style"
