Thanks. I will buy an LCD for it soon and finish it off.

A slingshot should take care of that.

LOL. No thanks. It will be fine the way it is.

Applying the artwork on the outside could fix this and still achieve the same effect.
Looks real nice :cheers:

Thanks Mountain. I like to have the art behind the glass to protect it from damage. I have used clear glass and put some car window tint over the cut out hole where the screen is. I just wasn't thinking this time. Happens quite often :D

Cheers mate. This was a test cab off the CNC machine. It was 20mm thick but shaved it down to 18 so it would look right. I was just going to assemble it to make sure it was right then just bin it but I can't bring myself to do that. So then a CRAP load of prep went into the finish to get it looking nice. I will sell it and build another for myself using Melamine.

I am doing that with the bartops that I am making and it works surprisingly well. Anyway, just a thought. THE SKINNY Ms. PAC looks GREAT. She must have gone on a slimfast diet. ;D

As above. I have used window tint which works very well. I have thought about putting the art between 2 sheets but just as easy to stick it to the back of the glass and be done with it. Thanks anyway.
Yep, she has been on a serious diet. Check her out next to a full size cab.
mmmmmm curvy.

HI. I was thinking of just making it a dedicated Ms Pac with just the joystick but changed my mind. Maybe in the future I will do it.

Isn't it always on the left?
Nice cab anyway dude.

Anyway? LOL. Thanks.

Maybe he's implying it should be centered? Considering there are two buttons on the panel, the joystick location is fine (although an ambidextrous layout would work out well too!)
Good looking cab!

You got it. Cheers.
