I'm a great fan of www.atarigames.com
There is SO much great stuff ALL about the Atari we all love.
Here's the newest video, luckily they put it up on youtube this time:

The look of the base very much reminds me of the SW cockpit base, it's very similar.
I wonder what tool that is that guy uses in the very end to apply the T-molding. My guess is that it's heating it (and maybe does more ?)
Anyway, do we agree that the one guy doing the work looks a lot like a famous Nintendo hero ?
Great stuff I love it !

Woow! Great video, thanks :-*
This cabinet seems very complex to build... I mean there are so many operations... Everything seems to be 'hand made', one by one :shock:
It doesn't really look like a factory, but more like a private workshop...
Do you know how many cockpits are built per day?

Great movie, Mario and Luigi doing SFR. :D
Astonishing how many parts are involved.

Indeed, you rarely realize that it takes so much work. Of course, SFR is a later generation and quite elaborate cab, but the basics have been about the same ever since Atari stopped producing the glass-fiber cabs I guess.)
I wonder how many they made in a day....
Did you notice that the cab got sprayed with the artwork already on the cab. Maybe some read it in my SW cockpit thread on BYOAC, but when I bought (and fist played) my SW cockpit I noticed something in the picture, like a bit of "cloudy" stuff. When I moved my head, I could see that it wasn't on the CRT itself but on the plexi bezel: there was black spray paint on it !
Could be the plexi already has been in there during painting...

Don't tell me that you cleaned the plexi bezel, the paint residu was an original feature. :o
You better put it back on. If you need a hand, call me :lol:

Wow, great video!
I think the T-mold tool is hammering it on... with compressed air..
