  • I want to build my own arcade controls!
i've been calling it a cocktail cabinet but thats not what im trying to make. im trying to make one of those units with just the control panel and the cpu with the screne seperate. im not exactly sure what that unit is called. im trying to find some prints for one of these units but i guess not knowing exactly what its called is whats making it kinda difficult. any help would be appreciated.....

Sounds like you're looking for Showcase Cab plans.
If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen

Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

yea showcase seems to be the design im looking for. there doesn't seem to be alot of showcase cabinets around, it must be pretty rare to find the prints for one.
