Caesars Palace Fiberglass Pool Install in 30 Days

A time lapse of our 30-day fiberglass pool installation in central Florida. Fiberglass pools are a quick install compared to a gunite pool - 30 days vs 4-6 months. There are many pros and few cons to fiberglass. The only big issue is you're limited to the fiberglass molds created by the companies, but they have at least 100 different designs and many add-ons to customize it your way. Fiberglass...

Harvest Caye on NCL Jade
มุมมอง 26K7 ปีที่แล้ว
Harvest Caye (pronounced “Key”) is open! The NCL Dawn out of New Orleans was the first to arrive on 11/17/2016 and beat us on the Jade out of Tampa by 1 day. The Dawn also had a longer itinerary (8am-5pm) than the Jade (7am-1pm). But we were happy to be there to christen the island. It is truly a marvelous transformation of an island into a $50 million dollar resort. I took over 100 pictures, b...

    Saw you on BKongs Next Level. This is an amazing build sir. Absolutely beautiful. Extremely well planned and executed. I’ve been more of a EM arcade collector although I grew up in the golden age of arcades late 70’s early 80s. Initially built a 60 in 1 so I could play golden age games in a gutted trash pile find of a Space Invaders. At the beginning of December I bought several Arcade1Up cabs. Joust, Tempest, Tron, Dragons Lair, Golden Tee 3D, Ridge Racer. The one I could not get my hands on was Star Wars. I laughed when you said you bought a lot of Glen’s components. I literally bought everything he had for sale to upgrade my A1Us. Including the Star Wars yoke. Not sure why but I also bought the components without the A1U cabinet to build one off EBay. So now I am at the point after watching BKongs for quite some time I’m going to build a cockpit. Your video has given me the confidence to do so. Love what you are doing with the Trilogy built too. Thanks for sharing this with the arcade community!

    Money/ time/ effort for a project on a Movie series THAT IS DEAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • @angelorusso3219
      @angelorusso3219 ปีที่แล้ว

      To each is own. I enjoy both Star Wars and Star Trek. I'm not a fanatic of either. I wanted an arcade machine for emulation and I was going to build one from scratch anyway. I saw RR converted his A1Up into a cockpit sandwich and brought me back to my days playing this in the arcade. I only had to add a bit of extra time and material to my original plans. For me, the challenge of building it was my motivation. It's a rare recreation of history (only 2,400 original Atari cockpits were made in 1983), a good conversation piece, and a fun/versatile emulated arcade machine. Should I ever sell it, there are many that would line up to buy it. I've already had a few offers to buy it or requests to have me build one for them - all appreciated but graciously turned down. To me, it represents by far the best of what SW offered through the original Trilogy. The movies since have their place... good or bad. Disney owns the IP and it will never be dead, but probably never be good again. If you stated "on a movie series THAT IS NOT GOOD ANYMORE" your opinion would be more respected. But that's the great thing... that we can have our opinions and debate them.
