I'll bet even Paige would understand the need for, and approve of the shape in this case.   :)

Pixel, so you are gonna spraypaint the sides black, right?   ;D

First of all I cant believe Im finally seeing the side panels.

Second of all..

This is going to be one sweet arcade machine

Its nice to see you doing everything the right way.  My first cab I built I was so excited to just get it done It was sloppy, it looked good but I wish I would have taken my time and thought everything out.

Keep it up.

I should have explained that pic better.

The top most layer is the template. Beneath it is the side panel to be trimmed. This image shows the result of the first pass of the router with the top bearing following the template and trimming the side panel flush. Because the bit wasn't long enough it cut just under halfway down the edge. To trim the remaining, we flipped the entire panel (with the template still attached) to the other face and routed again, this time with a bottom bearing bit.

More gratuitous shots. Super low angle followed by close up showing super thickness.
