Hi
I am new to this forum and would like to announce my website of the cabinet I've been working on for the last year or two.

The cabinet was built from scratch and the design was influence by many projects on the BYOAC site in particular 'MAME: a cabinet in 24 hours' whilst the design is

Thanks guys! ;D

I am am not sure what to do with the Crayola trackball whether to make another control panel or have a drawer under the existing panel. Any ideas or tips would be much appreciated.

The trackball was very hard to find and I eventually found an internet site advertising one and placed an order. The guy called me on the phone explaining that they were no longer trading and the stock of balls were used in their own pre-school learning centre. He said despite the complaints from his wife he would still sell me one because I obviously wanted it so much. I dared not tell him what I wanted it for. :-[
Cheers
Cal

I've mocked up some side art for the cabinet. I'm not sure how I will get the art onto the cabinet . Does anyone know any good techniques for printing and applying the art?
