Amazing work. Awesome instructions on how to install the vinyl stickers. I really like the artwork and I think those characters are really nicely illustrated! Respect man!
Of all arcade cabinets I've seen, this one is the best. It's a piece of furniture with plenty of storage, it's cool looking, fantastic artwork, nice ambientlight, cool trick with motion sensor, it runs on low power Raspberry Pi... Amazing! :)
Bob, I love that you let us know about how you decided on your process. Like "I started out doing it this way, but it was taking too much time, so I did it this way and it worked out better". When content producers put out "The Perfect Build" it makes rookies like me sometimes feel frustrated because you guys make it look so easy :) Everyone makes mistakes, and showing us yours is a great educational tool
Been hoping to see something happen with the arcade for a long time now and these videos have been COMPLETELY worth the wait. The cabinet looks amazing - awesome work and thanks for the great breakdown, as always.
Great work. The graphics look amazing. I am never going to make something like this myself but it's a great series and very interesting and informative.
+I Like To Make Stuff even the idea is great. The whole family as super heroes! I'd have to make a huge cabinet because I have even more kids than you!
+Brian Munroe Thanks! I was actually pretty worried about that turning out well, but it ended up not being as difficult as I expected. I just circled it 100 times measuring the overlap and adjusting position.
Such a great project. I used this video to build my own arcade machine. It turned out perfect. It was so fun to build. I wish I had more room, I’d build more (racing and light gun). Thanks for posting this!
I loved that book, I am going to build an arcade cabinet this summer but I will use an old TV and maybe coin slots for more retro style. Good job, greetings from Germany
This was so worth the wait. I kept thinking the graphics weren't going to live up to the build up from the Making It podcast. But they did, so awesome, that was a great personal touch.
This is, buy far, the nicest cabinet I have seen. It,s not only cool and functional, but it's not just a big waste of space, I can actually contain stuff. Congrats man, great build.
+John Harris Oh man, that's a shame! I may build a cocktail table at some point if I can find someone willing to commission it. I don't have room for it, but I'd love to make one :)
Bob, this thing is unreal. I'm super jealous. Like you, I have a list a decade long, but this was just added to about year 3. lol! Keep it up, can't wait for part three!
Love the final graphic Bob! Solid vinyl install skills too. One tool I find invaluable in my tool kit is a small utility knife, with the long, snap-off blades. They're light and easy to manipulate, but you can get extra length if you need it. My favourite brand is Richard, but I think they're Canadian and even tricky to find up here. Lots of companies make variations though. Looking forward to the Finale!
What's up Bob I just finished reading that book was a great book couldn't put it down that cabinet is awesome great work and keep it coming thank you for such great work
Bob, you are a DIY-rockstar. My favorite detail is the retro I Like To Make Stuff logo. Absolutely love it.
+Natural Nerd Thanks so much! I'm actually considering t-shirts with the marquee logo. Good idea?
+I Like To Make Stuff Great idea. Defintly reusable :)
Hey Funny to see you here! I know you!
Absolutely amazing Bob. It looks great!
+April Wilkerson Thanks April!
+April Wilkerson I LOVE UR WORK APRIL!!

Amazing work. Awesome instructions on how to install the vinyl stickers. I really like the artwork and I think those characters are really nicely illustrated! Respect man!

+Haikal Husaini You can! Just start small and make something that you need!
Love this, I had an classic cocktail table style Galaga arcade cabinet that was stolen many years ago during a move. I miss that game.
+John Harris Oh man, that's a shame! I may build a cocktail table at some point if I can find someone willing to commission it. I don't have room for it, but I'd love to make one :)
Well done Bob. This is by far the best thing I've seen you make to date. Really good job Bob!
+Andy Lawson Thanks Andy!!
Looking great. This is some serious inspiration to get busy on my own project.

Cutting the t-molding groove after the fact looked messy. Those graphics look amazing, your buddy did an amazing job.
+Michael Gomez Yeah, no matter when you do it, it's messy just because of the router. He really did! I couldn't be happier with the artwork!
Wow awesome job! The graphics look great!
