Hey guys, i started a YouTube channel where i will be posting how-to's, build videos, and videos of me going around to collect & gather arcade machines. Subscribe if it's something you're interested in. My first video is about installing european style hinges in your control panel.

Why thank you. I knew it was a video that has to be made when I was installing my hinges and couldn't find a single straightforward video on how to do this. I will be posting more videos in the future. Like side are and cpo installation. How to wire a service switch is the next video.

Agreed, good video. If you still have time, I'd love for you next one to be "How To - Bondo"

Sure, there are already a ton of videos on YouTube on "How to Bondo" but after seeing how much you just had to do, that could be helpful.  ;)
If you can read this, it means Photobucket's money grab ruined my signature photos.

Ok, i will add that to my list of videos to make. I don't have any major damage to my cabinets anymore, but there are a few minor spots i could touch up.

Awesome!

Now I know I'm not the first to realize my drill is too big to fit inside the CP box after its glued up. 

Just finished plugging holes for my hinges with dowel slices because I had to drill right through from the outside :P

We need more videos like this!  BTW  there is a sticky thread right above

called 'Are there How to Videos on arcade building"?   http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,80229.0.html

which would be a good place to embed your videos.

On Bondo, my first video in a series of videos ( in that thread) on surface prep and paint finishing has plenty of detail on "How to Bondo"  check them out.  The more the merrier though.  :applaud:
