all i have to say is.. wow.. what an awesome cab. It looks so clean, like its not even made from wood.
Seeing this cab being built was actually one of the cabs that inspired me to try and build one. Your cab was defiantly an major inspiration for me.
I cant wait to see it with the side art and marquee on .. it will pull everything together nicely. I'd also love to see where the usb ports are mounted it looks so slick that i don't see a panel or anything with usb on it. Great cab, i think you really outdid yourself.

Hey guys,
Finally got around to getting my Artwork ! Thanks to Scott from GameonGraphix!
Still need to get the black border around the screen area so i'm saying 99% complete :P
Thanks for all the nice replies :)

I know it doesn't matter but I have to ask; If you only used 13 pins on your controller connectors, how come you used a 25 pin serial cable instead of a 15 pin one (like a VGA cable)?
orchidius:
Fine looking cabinet you got there!
I was wondering though... How do the N64 pads work? You just plug them into USB and they take over all controls on Project 64 through HS without reconfiguring?

Easy, the 25pin only has 2 rows, the 15 pin uses 3 rows. Soldering is way easier on 1 row rather than having to try and solder pins in that have pins directly on top of them. :)

Thanks :D
Well they are always plugged in, and Project64 is set to use them and not the Xbox 360 pads :)
