i have been designing this for a while now in autocad. that's a sweet vector software in case you didn't know. i used it to generate a pretty complete bill of materials (for the wood anyway). here are some screenies from acad showing some of the design ideas and things.

main design profile		sections		details

ok, so here now is the bill of materials for the whole project.

this is not a buy all for the project (pretty close tho). if you buy everything here and still are short some small parts, don't blame me.

any 0's you see are because i already had some parts from previous projects and did not have to buy anything. so if someone wants to make a similar project, it would obviously cost em more.

took me a while to get there done, but i finally got the 3d render done. i did it in acad and attached materials and everything. i think it turned out pretty good. i drew all the buttons, sticks, and panels my self, as i do not thing there are templates out there. let me know what you think. the pics show the upcoming vinyl graphics i am gong top put on it.

finished		front		cp, woo hoo!

awesome!

i used acad to design the neo-geo cp overlay as well. i feel it is pretty close, but i did take some creative licence on the exact dimensions to fit in the bolts. i then imported it into paint shop pro and made it all pretty like.

cp design		finished!

now for the marquee. i created this in paint shop pro too. i got that sweet image of the svc chaos, from snk's own web site. i can't remember if it was US or JP web site tho.

i got the images printed at a local engineering plot company (someone who makes professional plots for road development and stuff). it cost me $10 for both images. and they are of great quality. kinko's does good work too, but they quoted me $40 for the same paper/work. i say avoid the big companies.
