#bartop — Public Fediverse posts

my first bartop now has a little sibling, 7cm narrower, 6 buttons instead of 8, a full width marquee, and a better cable management for the joystick panel

applied some mat painting, added a few stickers but not too many as there will be a "sticker party" to outsource that part of the decoration 😉

still undecided about painting the joystick/buttons planks in dark mat too

hey fedi hivemind, should I keep those panels white or should I paint them in black?

Finished my #3Dprinted #Arcade #Bartop. Powered by a #RaspberryPi 4 running RetroPie from a 120GB SSD which helps in speed and reliability compared to a Micro SD. Between Arcade games, Gameboy, color and advance, NES, SNES and Sega games you will always have something to play. Joystick, buttons and connection board from #AliExpress

improvised a more serious vesa mount, added plastic edges that feel like rubber, squirted hot glue everywhere I could, and added a warning notice taken from an old elevator

the result is way too clean though, I'll add more dirt, torn stickers, rust stains and erosion traces to remove any doubt about the rat's style of the furniture 😉

made a marquee by pasting stuff from the interwebs, couldn't figure out the right print settings though 🤷

looks more breathable after doing some cable management

remaining tasks:
- dig the missing holes for the 'coin' buttons
- cut the plexiglas for the bezel
- saw a piece of wooden board for the back
- decorate!

That greasy box of empanadas just started its second life as a chassis for the Pi4B.

The raspbery sticker didn't age well though, it needed an update 😉

@crussel Good for you ! Mine began with #insomnia (as they all do), lullabied by #StarTrekDS9 , littered with a bunch of chores (inc. massive #kimchi 🇰🇷 preparation for the family, tasty but very manual stuff) and some interesting tech things to brainstorm, the next one being finishing the configuration of a lighttpd server for dev purposes :patcat:

I am otherwise excited and inspired by @tobozo 's ongoing success at building his first #arcade #bartop 🥳

thanks to @tipiak75 for suggesting a buttons reorder

The vesa mount solution isn't an option with the monitor I want to use, so I tried to make some kind of support with what I have, this is the bottom part.

This is beginning to look a lot like an arcade Machine. Just need to provide a power source and we're in business. #RaspberryPi #Arcade #Retropie #80s #bartop

This kind of starts to look like a tiny 1 person #Bartop #Arcade. I could be wrong 🤔 #3Dprinting #Prusa

Cremita de la buena.

Este finde no contéis conmigo para nada 🤣

#BuenosDias 🌞

Os traigo una actualización sobre la recreativa:
- Ruedas instaladas
- Joysticks y botones funcionales
- Bartop y pie anclados
- Vinilos al 75%

Ya queda menos

#videojuegos #videogames #arcade #bartop

Recreativa en progreso.

He recortado con Dremmel los altavoces de este monitor/Tv para que pudiera entrar y ha quedado perfecto.

A seguir poniéndola bonita (a falta de que llegue el pedestal).
