I love that you are building this in your kitchen. Either you are single or your wife is much more understanding than mine lol. Looks good so far. I don't think anyone will flame you but I am willing to bet you end up building your own CP anyway.

Yes thats my future plan build it so I can later on modify it
And yes my girl was first very pissed off at the idea I wanted to do an arcade cabinet. But later on turned around when I caught her playing Pac-man hahaha.
So she eventually said "yes" to the project. Doing it in the kitchen since it's to cold outside and well my house isn't the biggest place in the world. But guess I am lucky she didn't mind it to much in the end

First thing that just ran through my mind when I saw the kitchen. Surely the work of a madman

Got to say I'm very impressed with the quality of your work in such limited space!

Well done and good luck with the rest of it!

[DaOld Man]

I agree, good work!

[maniac e]

DONE!!!!
Some paint to redo on someplaces but its as good as finished.
Only the marquee left but that takes sometime to ship

[danny_galaga]

nice work. now you just need a custom made control panel to really set it off. and maybe a marquee 

[maniac e]

Indeed the marquee is coming so but the control panel has to wait for abit but will be in the making
