Well I finished the last of the cutting today. I had to cut out a new back piece to the control panel because I screwed up on the angle cut, so I learned the hard way to always test on a piece of scrap wood before trying a new way to cut. I also put the wheels on the base and built the CP box. Tommorrow I'll put the sides of the cabinet on and hopefully all the shelving. Everyone that could of helped me do this is gone for the weekend and I don't feel like waiting another week to build it, so I'm going to try and do it myself. I'll try to take a couple "action" photos of how I'm doing it myself... if I figure out how.
Also, I've decided to ditch the whole Atomic theme and go with something a little more standard, a Galaga theme. I know my cab looks nothing like a galaga cab and its probably been done a hundred times, but I don't care. Galaga was by far my favorite arcade game and it will be easy enough to do/get the art. I'm planning on picking up a marquee from ebay, probably order the sideart and kickplate from somewhere, and I'll custom design the CPO to be reminiscent of the original galaga CP.
