Couple of arcade cabinets for my kids for Christmas.
Still waiting for marquee graphic to show up for the upright one so I can finish it.

Neat cabinets Mike. I'm sure you kids will love them, and tell all the neighbour kids, and they will all come over to play on these machines. ;-)

Looks slick. I like it.

Great Job,
I've always liked arcade cabinets. I've been thinking of an entertainment center styled like one.
Regards
I don't always indulge in evil scientific research...but when i do. I make the parts on a ShopBot.
Nice cabinets! I always considered myself one of the groundbreakers of the video game movement - I used to play Pong! How old does that make me?

I use the x-arcade www.xgaming.com panels in all my cabinets,
I make my own panel layout and transfer the buttons, joystick and trackballs over,
X-Arcade also sells the items separately, but occasionally they have a good sale that make purchasing the whole panel cheaper
They also have an lifetime warranty.
There is a company http://www.arcadeguns.com that sells light guns, I've yet to use them but plan on installing on my next cabinet
Cheers
Mike

good stuff! i use my shopbot almost exclusively for reproducing classic arcade cabinets.. been at it for almost 5 years now, and make 60 different ones.
Here's a couple of mine:
Very nice,
I've always wanted to do one of the enclosed/driving cabinets

i bought my 14 year old daughter a ps3 for christmas, and a copy of Grand Turismo XL. I also have a really nice Logitech G27 steering wheel, that has the wheel, shifter, and foot pedals. I am going to make a custom seat, to mount all 3 pieces, and put it on recessed casters so she can park it in front of the tv.
Once i get it done i'll figure out how to post up the files for everyone.
