Well color me envious. Can't wait to try and build a bartop half as nice as the way this one is coming out. The MDF cutouts are very nice.

Excellent work. I was looking at some different ideas to build a bartop for each of my two sons. I love this idea. Where did you get the design?

matt4949 · « **Reply #50 on:** October 29, 2013, 08:41:31 pm »

Looks great. I'm working on a bartop myself and find inspiration in your work. Thanks

jahilton2002 · « **Reply #51 on:** October 29, 2013, 09:08:35 pm »

Thanks for the kind words!

We came up with the design ourselves, taking inspiration for other builds we'd seen. If it's any help to you, here's the dimensions for the side profile of the cab.

have REALLY caught the bug, really want to build one of these, could you possibly post the dimentions and measurements for this please. doesnt have to have all of them, just the heights and widths and things, also where abouts did you get the screen from, as this looks like the perfect size for what i want!

jahilton2002 · « **Reply #57 on:** November 24, 2013, 04:11:37 pm »

Your... your website... It's... so BEAUTIFUL. (BTW, I'm reading your FAQ. Your statements regarding sales and legality are everything my company aspires to have. Kudos, sir. I'm not saying I'm stealing your ideas - as I was planning on doing something similar - but your words hold inspiration!)

jahilton2002 · « **Reply #63 on:** January 31, 2014, 09:44:56 am »

Once again, thank you very much. We've alot of feedback in referance to the FAQ section of the website. Glad you like it.

Blum 170 degree kitchen cupboard/bedroom door hinge.

And not to worry, they are available in North America as well at many big box hardware chains. I've bought these at Home Depot in Canada, where they are available under a different brand name.

Sorry for being a lurker lately. We've started to catch-up with our projects now that RL is giving us some free time! We managed to get our Bartop build completed and we intend to give our Gameboy build some serious attention now!

Keep up the Great work guys/gals.
