Its actually funny i found this thread. because ive been thinking. do i either

1.- build a control panel for my dreamcast. or 2 revamp my current pc desk and build around it?

Heres an idea of how i will do that

Sorry about the crap illustrations as i used paint for these.

I  have a pc desktop table that looks like this


Heres a side view


Heres what i want inside


Heres a rough idea for the control panel


I will be building around the current pc desk using wood and the sega logo will be illuminated


And heres the side. the circle whole featuring the dreamcast logo will also be illuminated



Here it is complete


Do you guys think im being crazy? I cant really afford to build a cab since im saving to get a mortgage with my girlfriend. and this will be smaller and easier to move out when i finally do.

Lots of fine cabs built here by folks with little to no woodworking experience... don't let that hold you back.  :cheers:
