Mid-century style RetroPie table

I do some woodworking on the side as well, and when I saw your first picture, my first thought was:
"No don't butcher this like its some kind of IKEA thing!"But then I saw picture 2, and my jaw dropped.
That is just superb!
Nicely done, high Spouse Acceptance Factor, great 60s look, what could you want more?Now I am ashamed to show my meagre work on a bar-top...

Many thanks all for the replies! Much appreciated

Now I am ashamed to show my meagre work on a bar-top...TBH part of me would rather have had a bar-top :) More fun - but as well as stated acceptance factor my house is relatively small and something so single minded would be hard to place.
Look forward to seeing yours!

@mw BEAUTIFUL!!!

Wow thats a thing of beauty and fantastic craftsmanship. Very nice indeed.
What made you go for 4 buttons... not a fight game fan?

@thestraymongrel I'd say it was to keep with the era. Fighting games weren't popular circa 1960... Joke. It's a lovely piece of furniture, regardless.

Looks real nice. ☺

Now that is just about what I want to do myself. Trouble is I am pretty rubbish at woodwork. Still given me an idea, to maybe incorporate folding chairs too. A kind of Retropie Arcade Picnic Bench....now where did I put that 2 by 4, hammer and nails :)
