--- Quote ---I actually sunk my screws like you did as well, but I wood filled them and sanded flush.. in retrospect I guess I really didn't need to. --- End quote --- Agreed, the minuscule added grip to the laminate that filling in those holes would have provided is negligible. Besides you can't see them anymore! ;) --- Quote ---I don't have much to contribute other than my praise. There has been a nice departure from the "traditional" style of arcades here lately, and each one is so enjoyable to see in the works. You got a great start, and are not letting speed bumps get you down. Keep it up, this thing will be disco! --- End quote --- I love the classics and hopefully one day Ill have a dedicated cab or two (Black Tiger Jamma etc) but for now I just need to erase my first cab from sight! ;) |

Awesome. I'm looking forward to doing the arcs on my cabinet, so it's very reassuring to see all this. I am wondering though, if you'll run into any "air bubbles" or popping up of the laminate with that many holes that close together. I suppose it depends on the rigidity of the laminate and strength of the adhesive? I've heard of cracks telegraphing through veneer when applied on top of mdf bent with kerfs on the underside. Just wondering if it would be worth 10 minutes of filling and sanding to remove the air pockets? ??? |

Maybe I should have filled those holes in and I suppose time will tell me that hehe. |
