20 years ago i played Run and Gun @ the Arcade and now decided to built my own Arcade.
After purchasing buttons and stick on http://www.arcadewinkel.nl/ and getting the MDF wood it was started to start with the design

i used an old PC and old monitor for this.
I started the design with cardboard.
When cutting the wood i decided to go for a tabletop arcade
i attached the motherboard and PSW to the base. Drilling holes for the buttons.

i connected USB speakers in the top of the arcade and used the LED fans on both sides to cool the motherboard.
I decided to give it a black paintjob and never got round to apply stickers on it.
