What became of it?
Ginsu Victim:
A mistake I *almost* made....
Before joining this community, I almost built my first MAME cabinet out of one of these I was given free:



I don't know how that would've even worked.

Edit:
Here it is in the background! (Oh, those holes on the CP were already there....not my mistake!)
Malenko:
took it apart. TV went to my niece, PC went to my nephew, I hung onto the fight stick for a while till it ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- the bed. Cab was the first victim of my circular saw, my 3rd pole position was the most recent. Same saw too.
SavannahLion:
Not realizing that long soaked particle board offers NO resistance to an antique maul hammer head welded to a length of steel pipe. I walked with a limp for a week.

The smart thing was placing my all spare monitors on the floor, saved my back a lot of pain. The mistake was placing my all spare coin doors and boxes on the shelf directly above same monitors, causing my wallet to scream in agony.

Completely disassembling a cabinet of all its components, right down to the last screw... then forgetting which boxes I put half the parts in after completing the woodwork on the cabinet. Oh yeah, and destroying the monitor when the coin door landed on it.  :banghead:

My personal favorite, forgetting the soldering iron was hot at some ---fouled up beyond all recognition--- up hour in the morning....
JMB:
Making the cab playable before being fully finished. I swear it'll be 100% done one of these years.
