Wait a minute... So this is a "not a square box coctail" in the shape of a square box?
Nope. Rectangular, baby!

Both "fixed it for you" and "fixed that for you" are commonly used variants -- no need to "fix" either one.   ;D

When you were compelled to fix the grammar (quite expertly, I might add) I felt left out.

OMG...I love the wood top!  That would be perfect for the house.  It would get the wife approval for sure.

Man, look at you pumping out the builds on this version!! Very nice work!  :applaud:

And, as above, having the wife's approval is the difference between having an arcade cabinet in the HOUSE vs the GARAGE. Just saying...  :laugh:

Cheers - ...and yes surprisingly this has ended up in the house with the wife's approval - 1st one out of 7 :)
...but still think it looks like furniture  :-\

Sorry been busy with work for last month, so not checking here  :-[

here is an update on a 6th build.. was for use at my work

minor changes to design - was driven by fact I scored some free Perspex (51cm x 75cm x 6mm) from an old internal sign (Perspex was in excellent state - no scratches) and an old 17" LCD screen - (i.e. made for a really cheap build)
- other than that was same build process as previous - but went for a White base coat and chrome T-moulding so it blended into the work lunch room - seems to have worked (none of the SLT have noticed it :) )  and is getting a thorough workout every break
