Any other shots of this?  All I'm seeing is a night shot that doesn't show much.

Great job!  I've been following your project(s) and I really like the job you've done!

How many days before school starts? Time enough for another? :)

Or maybe I'm forseeing a cocktail project from you guys over winter break??

Purty wiring job... can you show us a pic of the lit control panel in a dark room?

Lit in dark room....little blurry, must have moved the tripod when being exposed.  Hate when I do that!

I really would like to make a cocktail cab...maybe that will be next.  I probably will make a 3/4 scale cabinet for my room at school next though......the students loved the whole retro arcade experience when I showed them last spring.  Funny, they have no idea how much fun the basic, mindless games are.  Maybe that is why I love  them...."mindless"....works for me!

Thanks...Ghent, Topsail is a very nice area...still unspoiled for the most part by the developers.
