I immediately liked your cabinet when I first saw the thread and decided to build one too. I've made slight modifications but as you can see I stayed close to the original :)

WOOOAHHHH!!! This is AMAZING to see!! Thank you for posting, and for making it happen!
So happy to see your own ARTIFACT Game Museum, all the way across the world!

 :notworthy: :cheers: :applaud: :applaud: :applaud:
Brouhaha:
I know this is old, but I just loved that design! So I wanted to let you know Artifact is gonna have a slightly modified sibling in Canada named Nostalgia  :D
ARTIFACT:
Heyyyyy woooooo happy to read this! Mine is still going strong. I actually just took out the aging mega-loud P4 computer and replaced it with a modded XBOX running CoinOps among other things. Works like a charm. Although seeing how much power the new dirt-cheap Raspberry Pi 2 has, it won't be long until our huge arcade machines have the electronics almost disappear :)

Send me your thread link and make sure to document!! I am glad I created a thread to log my progress daily, looking at it now is a lot of fun.

Take care!

Artifact:  was going to PM you, but your answer will probably help others, so I decided to revive this kinda-old thread.

In the 2010 "Hall of Fame Worthy" thread you wrote:

"wire coin return button to the motherboard's POWER switch, Smart Strip to turn everything else on"

Wiring to a coin return button is a very elegant/discreet way of turning on the PC, one I hadn't seen mentioned before. 
Once the PC is on, do you then turn it off by holding the eject/corn return button down longer?  [Or are you shutting it down in software, maybe?]  I'm worried that it's on, a kid pushes the coin return, makes momentary contact, and turns odf the computer.  Desktop PCs you usually have to hold the power button down for several seconds before it turns off, so I'm assuming it works the same way after you tap into the power switch?

Love your cabinet, btw.
