I see nothing wrong with it given the circumstances.  I probably would have built something more like a wide cabaret that stood on a separate base but that's not better.  It's just different.

I really don't think you understand, TOK.  I didn't sit down and think about how I could reconcile my lonely, solitary life with an arcade hobby and come up with a cab design that could be broken down.  It was impossible to get this into the room it was meant for without knocking down a wall.  No amount of muscle can gracefully solve that problem.  If I need someone to help me move a piece of furniture, I can just call a friend and get the help.  My cabinet design has virtually nothing to do with that.

How funny is that on the Can of bondo is a Ford.  Ford = Full Of Rusty Dents

I have nothing against those cars or the people that drive them so please don't turn my little joke into a whole ford vs. chevy dealio.

You could use mighty putty (as seen on tv) link

Works well.  There is also a company called Pig that makes a two part epoxy but they are more expensive.

I just got a regular epoxy that comes in one of those double-barrel syringe things.  Aside from wasting a ton of it the first time because the package said after mixing it together I'd get half an hour out of it and I actually got more like 5-6 minutes out of it, it seems to work really well.  I don't even mix it up before applying.  I just squirt it into the countersink holes and mix it up on the spot.  It seems to stay tacky forever, though.
