2  Tech and Marketplace / For Sale / Wanted / WTD Gyruss Cab Dimentions on: September 30, 2014, 12:10:31 pm
Hi Guys!
As I'm sure you know my dream cab is Gyruss.
Its come to the point where I don't think I can actually buy a cab over here, so I'm looking at doing the next best thing....
I'm gunna try an build one!
This is the first cab Ive ever attempted to build so this will be a sssslllloooooooowww process...
Has anyone got a Gyruss cab they could take some measurements off for me?
Or does anyone know where I can find some plans/measurements online?
The searches Ive done so far have come up a little short...

Any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated Cheesy

I love it, Just got back from Frontier Arcade in England an they had one there, I have it on the 60-1 Multi Board but the sound is terrible!
Thanks for the advice, I look on ebay (UK, America, Germany ect ect) on a pretty much daily basis  Cheesy
I'll find one eventually im sure  Smiley

Fantastic line up  Cheesy
5  Tech and Marketplace / For Sale / Wanted / WTD GYRUSS Control Panel on: September 16, 2014, 09:19:05 am
As the title suggests Im after a Gyruss control panel.

Any condition considered, even if it looks like a lump of rust, I have the time to restore it as this is part of a long running project.

Please PM me here if you have any ideas or grab me at:

HAY GUYS!!!! (How many people have wrote that I wonder??)
My names Dave and as the title suggest I'm from England, the original one, not this 'NEW' one...
Like a lot of people I reclaimed my interest for arcade cabs after watching King of Kong, It had never occurred to me before that you could actually own these things yourself!!! 
Although I'm really interested in Arcade games, the availability and cost of them in the UK is a hugely restricting factor.....
Still, there are fantastic groups over here such as UKVAC that are trying to keep the hobby alive.
I myself have a BAS Jamma cab that currently has a Konami Gyruss board inside (High Score Modded).
I also have a part finish project, its a repro Taito Trimline cab that has a 60-1 inside. The long term plan is making it into a dedicated Phoenix (I already have an original PCB), the main issue is getting a 14" monitor for it as its currently running a decased PC monitor with a VGA adapter. Its fine with the 60-1 but doesn't like original boards.....
So... Thats me  Smiley
Love the show and glad to be part of the forum  Smiley
