Wife- / Living-Room-Friendly Cocktail Cab
pmowry:
Congratulations on completing the cab!! It looks very nice. If I decide to build a cocktail unit I thunk I'll follow your route with the kit.
My daughter is a little older (12 when I completed it) so she gave me some strange looks for building such a thing, now she plays any time I turn it on. One of her favorites is Monster Farm Jump. She plays it with her little cousins. I think it would work 2 player with your 3rd panel.

Thanks, I hadn't heard of that one. We'll have to check it out. :)

Great job! Very nice work, I like the wiring job too.
You can "paint" the heads of the screws on the power entry with a black sharpie. It works wonders, and if you are very careful (or use masking or painters tape), you could probably use the sharpie to darken the silver monitor bezel.
But I think it looks great the way it is.
BobA:
Black electrical tape on the bezel will make it look good if you do not want to paint it. Nice cocktail cable :applaud: :applaud:

Thanks for the compliments, guys. :cheers:
I've made peace with the silver bezel at this point. It's really not as noticeable as the photos make it out to be - certainly not enough to make it worth pulling it back out again!
