eyeonthedesign2 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Hi, I am new to the site and am in need of rebuilding an arcade cabinet that will have hyperspin in it. I purchased the cabinet with hyperspin already configured. It needs work. Eventually I will replace the 17" monitor with a larger 20" monitor as well as a more powerful computer to run hyperspin with all emulators, N64 PSX Daphne, roms etc (but that i will do after i work on the cabinet) . I'm also looking to patch holes for the buttons to relocate them. i'm going to need to sandblast and put primer on the wood. Here are pics of the cabinet I need to work on. If any of you can give me the best advice possible to fix up the cabinet, including what primer and wood patch up etc... it would greatly be appreciated. Here are pics to show you. Please advise. Thanx, DREW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdhanded2 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I just used cheap primer and semi gloss on mine and it looks good. I used bondo to fill the holes, cracks because I was using an old cab and I needed to fill some stuff. It is super easy to work with, and dries fast.

Deadly Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Binn primer found at Home Depot Home depot also sells stuff to patch wood (like bondo but not bondo) I would fill the holes let dry for AT LEAST a FULL day. sand flat cut a peice of 1/8" plexi glass to fit over your CP Clamp it down and then mark out and drill your new holes. This will also help eliminate wood chipping and possible damage to the putty/filler. Remove plexi glass Paint the wood panel put your plexi glass back on.
