Very nice especially the unified colour theme, it works really well  :afro:

Thanks! I started off with the green buttons so everything else had to fit around that.

Thanks, I am pushing the limits on spending time on this "damn arcade machine" (in my wifes words!) but now just want to get it done and play on it.

I get the same thing.  I wonder if our wifes are on another thread bitching about their husbands working on arcade machines or what not.

Great job on your bartop.   :cheers:

Finished! Well almost. I still have to do some work on the paint with a cutting compound to get it nice and smooth but otherwise its done. And most importantly it plays great. I only made one change to my rule of only using materials and parts that I had lying around or could source locally (not a lot here in Ireland) - I was not happy with the performance of the stick (which came from an old Dreamcast Arcade Controller) so I bought an UltraStik 360 and love it.

Thanks again to everyone who posts on this awesome site, it gives the rest of us the encouragement to have a go and try to recreate those old arcade days at home.

 :cheers:

So here are probably the final shots of this thing while I get busy playing on it:
