Durability of 1/4" subflooring as applied to building an arcade cabinet?
« on: March 30, 2015, 11:37:40 am »
We remodeled the bathroom and I have a leftover, partially used sheet of subfloor.  Anyone use this product for gaming?  Aside from bezel, wooden monitor shroud, do you think it would be good for much?

Bezel or wooden monitor shroud, pretty much the only practical regular use for it.  :dunno

Actually, I'm going to use it to rebuild the sides of my DK cab. Some ---uvula--- chipped off the finish, and so now my cab is only 1/2 thich and shredded. I'm going to add 1/8 to each side using it and contact cement. Phet on KLOV did this to restore the sides of a Ladybug that had the same issue.
