I am just finishing my first build from scratch (sort of). I cut all of the panels myself, but I bought the control panel. I applied the side art, but messed it up some. The side art I purchased was not quite the right size, or I missed something so the Chef hat is too low. Next time I want to try stenciling. It has a 4 way joy, a trackball, and a 19 inch CRT. I learned a lot from this build and I have at least two other projects I want to try. I have a 25 inch tri mode that is itching to become a SHMUP. I am currently putting together a list of people whose ideas helped me put this together. I can start with Saint for putting this all together. Thank you.
