I'll be sure to take a video at some point soon Epyx.
Thanks for the feedback Franco B. It's consumed most of my spare time of late but now it's functional, I'm really happy. Just working on a mechanism to secure the swapable CP when it's slotted in. I don't have my XBOX working atm so I'm going to copy my MAME install from my other PC for some gaming action for now.
Thank you. Sorry, I meant the wood that the adjustable legs are connected to. I have circled it in the pic below.
Ah, the legs! These are actually 30mmx40mm strips, The 30mm matches the width of the mdf sides (12mm+18mm). I primed it, sanded it smooth, used some filler to hide any inconsistencies, primed and sanded again andthen painted them at the same time as the base. I used a flat black paint and water based polyurethane.
