First bartop arcade project - finished
-
@Meneer-Jansen Well, pretty much everything in this one was a tight fit, but the monitor wasn't a big problem. It could have been if it was bigger, though. 19" is maximum in this cabinet kit.

Props for the beer fridge mate :)

@SteffenMB Did you paint the case? It looks amazing!
-
@rbaker Thanks! Yes, I gave it some layers of black spray paint (satin finish). It was originally white, which could have looked cool (and modern) too, but I wanted it to be a bit more 'retro black' :-)
-
@SteffenMB Really like the Bartop on top of Beer Fridge solution.....Excellent idea!
-
That is class!! I really want one of these now, would never be able to build it myself though

Nice work! I just finished mine. I think I have the same cabinet kit. What did you use for the trim/molding? Did you have to route grooves for it? My cabinet has no grooves and I haven't yet installed t-molding. I am stuck on what to do. It would nice to know what you did.

There wasn't slots for T-molding, but instead I bought som chrome strips used for car styling :-) You just have to measure the width of your cabinet edges and find af chrome styling strip that fits. Easy!
I used som extra glue to make it stick,however, since the tape wasn't strong enough everywhere. But it actually works and looks nice, I think :-)

Nicely done, I'm looking to do this same project once I finish my other one!

Thanks, everybody :-)
