TimothyTim Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Hey Everybody I dont usually post, In fact i never have, but the info on some of these threads has really helped me. Im going blind and one of the items on my "Blind Bucket list" is to build my own mame cab and play. Im calling mine The Jiggawatt. I wanted to give back and share. I do PC repair on my own and the patch guy is my logo (I wore an eye patch for 10 years) Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tristeele Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Dude - I have had a BAD few weeks, maybe even months. My work SUCKS!!!! I have been a shell of myself lately with family, friends, etc.... I just want to thank you for posting this and for your insanely great attitude. I hope you post more going forward and tell us about your bucket list and more about yourself. I know for me it was a nice wakeup call to life and probably will be to others posting soon! Thanks again. Love the intro and the positivity! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimothyTim Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 Thanks guys. I am happy with how it turned out. The first couple of time I watched the completed video I shouted a big WOO HOO! My inner child is content for a few minutes. I used Adobe After Effects, Photoshop, Premiere Pro and Anime Studio Pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcm9800 Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 really cool work tim and i also hope we read more of you and your progress all the best for the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimothyTim Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 Tristeele Glad my words made a difference. I know a crappy job can really affect everything in life. I feel my worst when im not moving forward. Don't ever buy into the thought "there's nothing i can do" its a lie. Tell it to yourself enough times and you'll believe it. We can always do SOMETHING. I've been there.. got the T-Shirt and i'll probably go back for another. About me? I love computers. I have since I was a kid (I read my MS DOS 5.0 book cover to cover). I'm self taught and am approaching a level of skill that I've always wanted. I have something called Marfan syndrome also called the "Giant Killer" (im not a fan of the nick name. lol) feel free to google the heck out of it. And Thanks for the "Thanks" man. Glad you like the vid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazzardActual Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Looks great man! Now you need to post more pics of it in the cabinet thread! If you put that much love into the intro, i bet the cab is just as purdy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimothyTim Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 My cab is coming along well. I'll post some when i think its photo worthy. I want to add a Flux capacitor near the coin mec. They are CRAZY expensive so Im gonna try to build one. I just need to get started with the lights. Im looking for them.. With my bad vision soldering is a bad idea. Good news is I have EVery thing i need.. just busting my brains on the software setup. Please let me know if you have any ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muchvibe05 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Good job TimothyTim. Please do post pics when you get the flux capacitor built. I have a feeling this will make many of us up the ante on our future builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Styphelus Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I'm glad it's only 1 "Jiggawatt". 0.21 more and we would be travelling back in time. You had more worried there for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
