Got any pics of it?
They can take ALOT of time to finish up, then to find out that's it's never really done.

Was not able to finish cutting out the wood today will try Saturday or Sunday.

I dont have the final result cabinet pics (added it to my to do list now!). But here is a picture (bad) of the first version. Since then I completely redid the control panel from scratch to add a trackball and a spinner as well. I also replaced the monitor with a Wells Gardner D9810 multi resolution arcade monitor.

Nice cab I wanted to do a 4p showcase cabinet but decided to make something smaller and easy to move, I have a 4 slot neogeo and mame upright cab in storage but those suckers are heavy.

Anyway I hope to get some more work done tomorrow
