Why blame Chance? He should be a bar that all builders should set their own goals to. The days of using marble wallpaper to cover our machines is over. We should all strive to make our machines to the best of our capabilities. Chance is just a little over the top.

Did you leave your sense of humor back home? Tell her to bring it next time she brings you some Mexican food.

Problem with the scrap wood box is I have no where to put something that big.

Well I didn't build a super huge box... in fact I just had a scrap piece of plywood and some casters lying around and went... "hmm". I think the inner dimensions of the cart are around 2'x3'

I'll take some pics of the brake this evening, but seriously... just two pieces of angle iron... nothing to see. About the only advice I can give is if you don't have a drill press or a welder, you aren't making one because it's unlikely you'll be able to drill through the iron.

bumping for pic - is it anything like this?

I don't think there's as much variety. Everybody wants to build a 4 player widescreen cabinet.

I dunno. I like my ideas. Not to bring in naff in the chuff thread, but nothing else is working out for me to pursue ideas. Real Life TM Live & on location. I've finished the patio, except the staining. The camper is sitting on the left over rock and its all boardered with paver stones. There will be time later for arcade building I suppose. I didn't follow the plans for my lowboy and it shows. I use the computer for surfing. My workspace is not organized and I haven't been efficient in the past, so I'm going to work on that first.

When I do bring a finished arcade project to the forum, it'll probably be with my aftermarket jamma ms pacman. Or MAME Lowboy. Or something different. I'd like to see an N++ arcade cabinet.

Obligatory chuff. I'm down 25lbs since last winter/ this spring and I've started to go to the gym. I have 4 bags of clothes that don't fit and only 1 or 2 pairs of jeans and 3 pairs of slacks that do fit.

/edit

Retail Denim ~$~ Sheet of plywood or MDF. I'm just having to choose my power per $ for awhile. We aren't even talking about tools yet.

Good for you Eric. I used to work out but I discovered being lazy was much more rewarding. If you ever need a good cd to jam out to while working out I would recommend the selection below.
