Wooden Bartop Arcade 2 Players with plans and photos

SnaKKo

Hi guys,
I've just finished my Bartop Arcade and open sourced it (with plans, measurements and much more)!
Here the features:

Wood cabinet;
17″ LCD Monitor
Stereo speakers
LED backlit Marquee
Panel control for 2 players

If you are interested in making this Bartop, I created a Git repo with all the sources under the MIT license.
I made a post where I explain how I made this Bartop and where you'll find the photos during the construction.

This is the job done (thanks to RetroPie and Raspberry Pi):

@edmaul69 Thanks a lot :) I love wood too because it connects us to the natural world and allows us to bring a bit of the outdoors inside!

Beautiful job, very clean.
and the wood makes it look very old school. even more old school then the true black ones.

All this talk about wood got me wood when I saw this.

Sorry could not help myself....

@snakko Looks like a nice, clean Bartop. Nicely done! I especially like the stained wood and the clean display bezel. I see a lot of folks skip that, but yours has a nice black overlay and an opening that doesn't show any hardware.

Is that a USB port in the front? I use that same USB port on mine!

@caver01 Thanks a lot! Yes, it's an USB port, the original plan was with Raspberry 2 (so no WiFi) but now it's using a Raspberry 3 (so the USB port could be an optional 'cause WiFi). The main purpose is to attach keyboards/gamepads or transfer ROMs to the Bartop.
