First Cabinet
SithMaster:
Just realized if you have it straight the monitor would need to be so too. Not sure if it would look right or have issues being at an angle while the glass isnt.
The cp should be 3/4 thick and if you need some buttons i have some. they are of the microswitch varity.

yea i have been thinking about how i am going to mount the plexi to the cabinet. have not figured that out yet. But i am going to put the monitor at an angle. i like it better that way.
Also decided on yellow paint for the hole cab on the outside and going to go with these for the cp overlay, marquee and bezel

don't think i am going to do the sides. just leave it in yellow. I will paint the inside of the cab black of course and going to do yellow t molding. I have to get the rest of the paint striped and all sanded down this weekend. This project is going to take me a little while, me and wood work don't go good together.
SithMaster you have a PM about the buttons.
