Hey,
If it sold already, then I guess its all a moot point, but the Galaga project - I will look forward to following...are you gonna list that one? Have you done a Pac yet?

Its not a moot point. Its honesty which I appreciate. Any feedback is good feedback, wether its praise for the work done or offering opinions and guidance or tips which is all good IMO.
Thanks.
I will list the Galaga. This time with a bit more detail on the assembly process. I will probably do 2 cabinets on the next build. 1 Galaga and 1 Ms Pacman since they are basically the same?
I haven't done a Pacman. To be honest I am a bit worried about trying to sell a bright yellow cabinet LOL. I have sold 2 before but they where just some Pacman art on the side of a small generic cabinet. The USA Pacman is a lot bigger than those.

I'm going to be building a Galaga variation myself soon, and I'd like it to come out nicer than my last cab :-\ , so mark me down as someone who would be very interested in details of your assembly and photos. :) I'll be building with a block/glue/nailgun method, so I'm guessing I could pick up some useful tips from you and your experience since that's your preferred way. Plus you're do damn fast you'll probably finish both cabs before I have time to pick up my MDF!
I wouldn't lose too much sleep over that blue. My memory of that cabinet doesn't match that other photo, I don't believe it actually looks that dark in person. Probably somewhere more in the middle. Looks fabulous either way, nicely done.
Edit: The spacing of text after a quote block on this forum keeps tripping me up, it's different from Ars Technica where I'm used to posting. :p

That's great....and yes, the Pac is very yellow...I was going to recommend MsPac instead because it is beautiful Blue, but I see you are already one step ahead on that point. Please list your Ms.Pac if possible, as I will be tackling that project next and you are a true master craftsman to follow.

Spacies,
Any tips on locating the monitor supports on the sides of the cab, they don't seem to be on the drawings?
Also how are you holding these on, the original had bolts through the side, I would hate to have a monitor fall out.... :o
