Pix not working for me.

If they're small enough why not just upload them here?
If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

There is a little "box" below the message "box"  to the left it says attach:

Click on the browse button, find the file, select it, and click the open button and bob's your uncle.

Most real arcade games had hinged control panels as well, unless I've just only seen ones with them.  

What do you use to attach your CP? I've seen people say velcro and the like don't hold up very well.

The cab looks great OP, keep us posted.
first off your and idiot

Man I love the internet, haha.

Some did, alot didn't. The reason most did not was so that technicians can just unhook them, take the whole panel to their workbench and do the work, then bring it back and re-attach it. No fuss no muss. (Another good reason to make all your wiring detachable via a molex plug).

The cab I'm converting has a hinged CP since it's all made of wood. I should probably change it to not-hinged, but that's extra work I don't absolutely need to do.

NO MORE!!
