I wanna thank everyone here for the formal and informal input gathered from these forums. Very helpful during the build process. Let me know what you think.

Great looking bartop.   Of course I am partial to the smaller cabs.  Neo Geo is a good choice to theme your cab on as there are a fair number of popular games that play well.   Nice software setup with windows hidden.  Some build pictures would be nice.

Nice looking bartop!
Glad to see you used a proper CRT in it.  :applaud:

edit:  it's also a good idea to start with a kit for the wood construction as your first cabinet. That kit looks pretty well put together too.

That is a very nice bartop. The Neo Geo theme is great.
I love the use of the crt rather than an lcd
