Midway Pac-Man Cocktail Build (5/30/12 Update - Finished)

<< < (3/22) > >>

CWorley:
:::UPDATE:::

Currently, the top of the cabinet is being worked on.  The hole for the monitor is cut along with the curves at each end above the control panels.  The next step is working on the support to hold the monitor in place against the top of the cabinet.

I've added some pics.  Enjoy.

Well Fed Games:
That top looks great!  :cheers: What was your method for those curves- saw or router, etc?

Gaaargh:
Nice work!

CWorley:
Thanks guys!

We used a saw for the top.

:::UPDATE:::

The support that holds the monitor to the top of the table is completed.  We basically used piece of wood with a hinge on one side and a latch on the other to hold the LCD in place.

The top of the table was created with a piece of 3/4" plywood and a piece of 1/4" plywood glued together.  The monitor square on the bottom half (3/4") was cut just big enough for the monitor to fit in.  The monitor square on the top half (1/4") was cut smaller to only show the monitor's screen.

The LCD fits right into the top of the table and is held in place by the support.  It'll be simple enough to remove the monitor if needed.

I've attached some pics of the support latch.

Enjoy...
