90% of woodwork done




After milling the front & back door apertures for the coin door/box and back vents I got at home after work.

Made a lot of mess. Wish I had a workshop :(

Anyway, what you see to the left is how far I got.

I made some small mistakes, which was bound to happen, but nothing major!

Before I start painting / laminating etc. I will have one final measure up and will be drawing all the parts up in cad. These will be available for anyone who wants them afterwards.





The image you can see on the right is the assembled cab with the uncut screen panel and my Phoenix control panel (borrowed for testing purposes) *It all fits!*

I have now only got a few small things to do to complete the woodworking.

Next job will be to find wooden laminate (such as Formica) to cover the sides. The front and top will be covered with plastic laminate (bought from Paperchase)

Then, it will be on to sourcing a 14" colour arcade monitor. I may use an old TV for this. I already have all the other arcade bits to do the internals.

I forgot to mention coin door / coin box / coin box door - I will be making them myself at work.
