$700 buck! What the hell was I thinking. After my last post I just turned around and looked at another pile of arcade parts. I forgot to add the price of my mint condition original pac man coin door from eBay, the $19 dollar slot cutting router bit, the 5 authentic midway cocktail  table speaker grills, the...........I cant think about this anymore....I MUST BE INSAIN!
    No wonder my wife thinks I'm crazy. She must look at all this stuff and think what an idiot. Now I really got to finish this thing and make it look good or I'm going to suffer for the rest of my life. I can hear it now  "OH YEA RIGHT, THIS IS JUST LIKE THAT STUPID TIME YOU WANTED TO BUILD A DUMB ARCADE CABINET" Oh god what am I going to do!

CRAAAAP! is right, I better buy some more parts today. Lets see...... hummm....Doweling jig or hole saw......hmmmmm.
They treated me like an animal and that's what I became.

Just how good is the quality control on 4 clamps from Target at $2 total ;D The bright side is that you only have 374 clamps left to buy to become a full fledged woodworker.

Oh sure, lead him on by telling him he's gonna become a full fledged woodworker if he just buys the STARTER set of clamps ::)  ;)

Oh, and for anyone looking to get into woodworking, I've got a good excuse for you.  When you bring home yet ANOTHER clamp and the wife says "I thought you just BOUGHT some clamps (or some variation thereof)", tell her clamps are the guy's version of a woman's pair of black shoes ;D

I can't believe after all these years, it took some stranger, video game geek, arcade builder on a website to bring me an understanding of why women need so many shoes.  I'm serious, that suddenly makes it clear!  I've been asking women for long....

Oh, and don't be offended, I count myself as a stranger, video game geek, arcade builder on a website too.
... arcade builders could someday rule the world...currency would be reduced to quarters only, and wars would be settled
