But wait there is more progress...
After doing so well in such a short time, I added on the base and wheels so that I can move the cabinet around. SWMBO wanted an entertainment unit, I figure this is what she meant....perhaps. Anyways here are some more pictures. Next step is to include the arcade monitor!

The monitor in the cabinet
I've already made the rotating monitor using an old PC monitor and mounting it in curcular pieces of plywood, the problem is that it's very heavy and not easily moved around when I wanted to start fitting it to the cabinet. The solution? :rolleyes:
After giving it a bit of thought I made a dummy rotating monitor out of cardboard. Then the next step was to make the front mounts for the monitor and fit it to the cabinet. Am reasonably happy with the results, however the monitor seems to be a little high. I will double check this when I have completed the control panels that mount at the front of the cabinet - that way I'll get a better idea of the perspective of the monitor within the cabinet.
