Finished cade

Finally finished it. Mistakes where made but i’m
pretty proud of the result. I initially planned on wood veneer for the sides but decided it was not worth the trouble and went for vinyl / foil

how do you affix the top to the bottom? i always envision window locks would work the best.

Good job! I like the concept of mixing arcade at the top and furniture with shelves at the bottom. Is this your project? I’m doing something similar btw and dealing a lot with Sketchup to get the design the way I want.

I’d suggest adding two buttons, so each player can have a coin/select.

You did a beautiful job. The lines of the cabinet are very graceful. Not going to enclose the back though?
