Well, I thought it was way overdue that I share pictures of my humble attempt at cabinet making.
I started back in November 09 with the idea of making an over-sized Asteroids MAME cabinet.
Here are some pics of the initial cutting spree. I borrowed my neighbors table saw and circular saw to
get the big cuts done.

keep the wood from lifting off the saw horses.

Moved from the garage to the basement.
Starting putting her together, she starts to take shape.

Finished up the marquee area and speaker board (thingy). I have 2 4" mid ranges from my old Boston Acoustics I am going to use.

Here are the latest photos.
In the last one, the coin door piece of wood is just laying up in place. I have since
replaced it with a better fitting piece. The control panel is also just held in by gravity (and
friction).
In case anyone is reading this, do yourself a favor and get a router and a flush cut bit. If
I had earlier, I think my results would have been much better.
