![How to decase your pc
Episode#20 Custom Virtual Pinball Cabinet Build
In this video I will be showing you how to decase your pc and mount it on a removable/sliding shelf so you can do maintenance or upgrade with ease. So whether you just need extra room or just want to ditch the extra weight of the case and the unused components, this will work beautifully in your virtual pinball cabinet or arcade cabinet. In fact this video can also be used to learn how to make a very cool custom wall mounted pc that you can trick out and impress all your friends.
I also hook up all of the monitors, switching power strip, remote power button, locks on the access doors, and show the first shots of what this cabinet will look like during play!
