Final?! Final?!?!? :laugh2: ...
Seriously, if you ever decide you are finished with your cabinet then you must have found another hobby. ;) If in doubt see the Mission Control thread!

hehe. Quite true. I'm just in the beginning stages of my cabinet "assembly" and I keep getting new ideas every time I think I'm done. >:D

Big weekend, First i started and gave it a good cleaning
Here you can see the coin door and speaker holes on the front cab door
My virgin attempt with a spray gun
Only one mistake on the first spray job, but its in the back and nobody should see, I pulled the trigger with the gun pointed at the cab and got a glob of paint on the back, after it drys I'll sand it and paint it again.
Here it is after the first coat

Well I sanded and fixed the areas on the back of the cab and gave the whole thing a second coat of paint with the spray gun. It looks really good but I was kind of sloppy with the gun for my first time, I'm not happy with the amount of overspray thats on my garage floor.
But anyway still making some more progress.
Artwork came the other day hers the marquee Notice the Name ;D
and here's the side art
Installed the hinges and some magnetic latches
I installed the keyboard hardware as well, and I gave it a test open and close, Its a little tight so I need to trim the drawer width slightly
control panel top and a couple of coats of poly is next...

I finished my cp art today and I disasembled my coin door, I plan on painting the coin door and starting on my cp top tomorrow. I am going to use a different hardware for the sliding keyboard drawer, the ones pictured above were a little short and felt....unsturdy.
