Some foriegn tricksters keep passing off their funny currency in the States, and I keep ending up with it in my pocket. I go to the vending machine to buy a pop, and the machine is smarter than I am. Here are some of the nefarious coins I’m stuck with:



The two larger coins are from Canada and easily pass off as a U.S. quarter and dime. How could someone accept that little coin!? It’s a Sverge 10 Ore from Sweden. Too bad it’s not a
rare 1964 coin.

I really like the Golden Tee 2000 arcade cabinets, with the swooping white top section contrasting with the main black base. I’m trying to mimic elements of this style in my own cabinet design. Let me present my first Rough Draft Cabinet Design.

Ok, so don’t laugh that I used graph paper instead of CAD. The monitor is 25-inch instead of 27, so the cabinet is not as deep and I was able to achieve a steeper (45 degree) angle on the monitor. What I like most about this cabinet, is that it can be broken down into control panel, main section, top section, and monitor for easy transportation.
