I'd tell you exactly what I have planned, but I'd rather wait and see if I can get reality to match what's been floating in my head for weeks. ;D |

I'd go with plywood if I were you. If there is anything like a specialty woodworking shop in your area call them and see if they can get you some 5/8 baltic birch plywood. It tends to be uniform, but cheap enough that high end woodworkers us it to make jigs. |

No one other than BYOAC members builds cabinets with t-molding covering the lexan (heck, the Lexan itself is more of a conversion game thing then something the original manufacturers did). |

Hmm. I suppose a nice bevel would look pretty slick, and wouldn't take the skin off of someone's wrist. ;) I'm not overly concerned with "authentic" arcade cabinet looks, as much as I'm concerned with good looks overall. Hell, I started thinking about the paint (I was/am planning to paint the top with 5 different colors) and with all that, it may be very financially attractive to just pay $70 to mamemarquees to get a complete CP. If I do that, it doesn't really matter WHAT I make the CP out of, including a $5 sheet of particle board. |
