A friend of mine told me "I would really like to build a vPin cab", after seeing images of 2x Arcade cabs I had built as hobby projects. At that point I had never even heard of vPin, let alone the software bits and bobs... but after some searching, the propeller-head in me found a donor semi-built and deserted project as a 2nd hand buy online, which I bought and picked up. Luckily it had a lot of components bundled with the kit already (Pin2DMD, topper display, contactor relays, LEDwiz) but it wasn't put together well and I needed to swap some stuff out (I found out later). On top of that, the get all of the software tuned and ready to go, I had to spend 'some time' reading tutorials and all.....
Altogether it was a really fun project, and in fact, you're never done with it as updates continue to come along, and even ideas to improve the cab.
I am happy with the result so far though...
