DYNAGOD:
best thing to do is to walk away..honestly

hehe, maraxle. This hobby never gets finished (at least for me). I have my cab for years and its not finished. I still have to do side art, marquee etc..and I only have about 700 games in the cab at the moment but everytime I get that felling, I just fire up my favs and play away. I only made sure that when I started the cab project, I made sure that I can play some games and not to worry about what sideart, marquee etc...I have to do. Your cab could be BOLD at this point but just get it up to a point where you can play a nice fav game of yours, this will take some frustations away and it leans you forward to completion (one day).

I can concur. You CAN walk away for a while, and then come back. If you REALLY love steak (yum!), you still couldn't eat it day in and day out.
Some of the hobbies I turn to when I've had enough of cabinets:
1) kids (either having them or tending the flock)
2) Saltwater reefkeeping (this one will get you a quick divorce if the wife sees the receipts for some of this stuff!)
3) Squash (no not the eating kind)
4) Console games
5) My job (yeah it's like a hobby!)
6) Gambling (see description for #2 above)
7) In-law heckling (Telling my republican in-laws how we just loooove our Liberal government here is good for hours of squaking fun!)
8) Home renovation (tired of building a cabninet? Fix those squeeeeeky pipes!)
9) Astronomy (get a good telescope, and remember you don't always need to point that thing up!)
So have some fun, then come back to Mame later! :)

If you're really obsessed with the end result, and not the building as much, hire someone to do it for you. give them something like 100 plus expenses.

just take a break...go back in a week or so with a fresh outlook then the peises should fit together......
