What thickness of MDF did you use for this build? That finish on the riser looks great!

I used both 3/4 and 1/2. Most of it is 3/4 except for parts for the control panel.

Looking great! Is the plan for red t-molding?

I have a couple of those X-Arcade doors. I wish I sprung for the 2 coin model, but it's a great unit.

I like the control panel artwork. When I had my MKII cabinet, I had a street fighter layout, and that was a mistake. I did find some artwork with the lightning around a street fighter layout, but I should've done the traditional MK layout.

Good job.

Oh yes, red all the way.

Yeah, I had to re-create the control panel from scratch, so that took a bit of time. But I think it came out quite nice.

[Update 13 - 9-20-2021]
It seems there was a hiccup on getting the rest of my decals, so for now I did what I could with the t-molding. Still waiting on my miles connectors and I have to take a trip to the local hardware store to pick up a couple more items (small details) to finish this thing off. Programming has been done (for the most part). There are a few more things that I would like to do with the OS, but they may or may not happen.

[Update 14 - 10-01-2021]
For the most part I am finished. I have a few minor things to do, the major one of the issues is to add a volume control outside of the cabinet and it will be done. I am quite happy with the final results, I may make a couple corrections on some things, but my guess is that it won’t matter. Way way here are the final shots.

So what was the final game list?
I ask cause I see Gameboy Advance and GB Color in your front end :)

If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

Fantastic! Any chance you would share that MK artwork? I dread rebuilding mine if I ever have a MK cabinet to do.

Yeah, I don't mind. I still have some tweeks I'd like to do, but it is simple things. When I get a chance I'm going to do a video of the cabinet.
