gonna be starting my scratch defender cabinet within the next few weeks.

did anyone doubt their skills before starting and then end up building a better cab than expected?
missioncontrol:

It's taking much LOOOOOOOONNNGGGEEERR than expected!  :P

But I'm surprised my control panel patch came out so well on the first attempt with inadequate tools.  And that my Pac art was uncovered reasonably well.  I am heading out now to get some "hidden bolts" for my joystick and then I will try to get back, carefully adhere my CPO and hopefully finish out the CP today.  Woo.

My 2nd mame cab took just under 6 months. Granted, I didn't have to build it, but going with a restoration over scratch built saved a ton of money/time/space.

It came out 10x better than I thought.
