Cupholders
pinballwizard79:
Cup holders are awesome, being drunk is awesome, spilling booze is awesome, playing arcade games is awesome.
Dont deny yourself awesomness!!!!!
When you are in that hospital bed surrounded by all your friends/family & on your way to planet Kolob, Jannah, heaven or whatever you believe in you will wish you drank more beer & played more robotron.

I think that adding I side table would actually add more spills. With the cupholder I could easily take a swig b/w levels without pausing. With the side table it would be more of a rush and I can see a lot of tipped over drinks. Like I said, with my cab

they are simi hidden on the backside of the cp. I wouldn't think a little spill could get into the cp anyways.

Honestly, I just put drinks right on my CP. I don't have a frankenpanel and there is more than enough empty space to put a drink down. I've had a couple spills but they wipe up easily enough if you're quick. Nothing has seeped through to the CP artwork yet. And if the worst happened and a drink spilled and shorted out every single electronic device in the cabinet and simultaneously melted all the MDF...well, then I get to build another arcade cabinet, and building arcade cabinets is a lot of fun. It's win-win.

The best kind of drink holder for an arcade cabinet (",)
