Hi, I have limited funds and I want to make a cocktail arcade cabinet. I know I can cut one out and make it with available plans, but I want to convert an existing coffee table or occasional table. Has anyone have any pointers or suggestions that could help me? I want it to look like a used piece of furniture not a gameroom piece. |

I've spotted a few projects where someone converted Ikea tables into a cocktail table. Ikea currently has a couple (or three) glass top tables that look like they might lend themselves well to such a project. A few non-glass tops look like they can be converted as well. Or hit the thrift stores and see what you find. |

Here is a thread that SavannahLion is probably thinking of http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=76916.msg801692#msg801692 I've also seen this coffee table converted http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/ArcadeFurniture Check out this slick looking piece of furniture http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/TeaTable And this one isn't converted either , but kind of looks like furniture http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/A._Carnine%27s_Supercade Mine was done on a $300 budget and is meant to fit in (course it is on wheels :) ) http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=75709.0 Good luck on your project, keep us informed ! |
