My Nintendo cab uses 9/16th wood and the flat white t-molding for Nintendo is also 9/16th. I'm assumming he built his cab with 3/4" MDF. Not sure if you can get flat white t-molding for 3/4 but I did see rounded.

I'd use either...

Thanks guys, I didnt know it had flat t-molding on it.

There is a local company who make flat t-molding in 3/4" white. I have their samples

Do you have the recessed wheels in the back of the cabinet for moving.  Helps out ALOT!   :cheers:

Wow, awesome job!!  It does seem like you did a lot in one day but I guess if you have the right tools and everything planned out you can do it.  I can't wait to see more pics!

I am also building a donkey kong cabinet (but a small version, about 2/3 size).  I should really get some pics taken, I have it all assembled and it's just finishing painting (seems to be taking forever for me), so I missed all of the construction pics.  It's been fun to build, and I got my side art from CAG last week, and I can't wait to put it on (I'm giving the blue paint on the sides a week to cure before I put the side art on).  I am basically done painting, I just have to touch up a few small areas with black (all of the blue parts are done).

I think I'm going to do the marquee and bezel area with one continuous sheet of plexi (I'll just use a heat gun to give it that bend).  I'll have the marquee retainer at the top, and then I'll just screw the plexi into the bottom bezel piece.  Not sure how that will turn out, but hopefully it will work (I'll just print the marquee and bezel on one large sheet as well, and then I'll just add a black bar where the marquee bottom board is...).
