TOK:
I love the control panel art, but have you held it up to the cabinet? Looks like it might not really go with the original Tempest art.

You don't think that purplue-blue T-moulding won't tie  the Tempest color scheme with the purple-blue rose on the upper left of the CP?

Actually, you have a point.  This is really a temporary thing until I score some vectorized Tempest CP artwork, of which a wonderful offer has been given by KonkeyKong .
Cabinet progress has already been delayed for about 4 months because of my artwork skills.  I got tired of waiting.
I got the ground loops wired up last night.

Saw an empty Tempest case go for $80 at auction. Wish I coulda grabbed it too. Woulda mamed it but still have it use only its spinner/button setup. For tempest and all the other spinner games. Cuz its gorgeous just the way it is.

theCoder:
Have you decided how you are going to mount the monitor?

I really struggled with this, since I'm freaked out about messing with the internals of a monitor.  I think that goes back to sticking my finger in a light socket a couple of times as a kid.  So I didn't want to mount it without the case.

I decided to take a monitor and build a shelf.  But how to attach it so it wouldn't move was a problem.

Check out the pics for some insight.  I'll provide heavy details if someone wants to know.

I used only what I had on hand including an old bed frame, and the rails from a glass shower enclosure that were waiting to go to the dump, and some aluminum bracing leftover from a water heater replacement.

I'll see if I can get a pic of the shelf in place.
