    This is amazing work Jojo! To think that 30 years later, we would be recreating real arcade cabinets, once thought to be impossible to get our hands on! I truly enjoyed watching this video and your dedication my friend. Keep up the good work ♥️

    This amazing! I would love to have a shop this big for my projects, but my garage will have to do. You should consider breaking this video done in chapters per phase, but it's also good as is. MDF has always been my go to for cabinet work.

    Nice work! I'm very impressed with the accuracy with your router. I don't think I've seen anyone do that and be consistent with the cuts and maintain straight edges!
    I'm actually working on a Punchout machine right now. Started last weekend. Will work on it some more this weekend.

    imagine having this level of woodworking expertise and the facilities at your disposal to use it. anyone who can casually do this by knowing how to do things like those angular cuts, knowing when it makes sense to use a pre-made cutting template, what to even look for tool-wise to cut things like those speaker holes ...these are the same people who say "no! it's easy, trust me" ...then if they eventually go the route of making custom arcades for people, their price goes up-and-up due to the demands on their time, resulting in long waiting lists for each of these talented individuals. "you could *easily* do this!" ...because " _I_ as a talented wood-working individual with all the space and tools to do it _did_ this" ..YES I'm bitter, and YES you remain amazing at what you do😅

    Golden age games seem to get most of the reproduction kit love, fair enough their value is typically higher. I wonder if anyone is willing to do cnc kits for our 90’s midway cabs. Awesome work.

    • @TheWickedArcade
      @TheWickedArcade  Před rokem +2

      Yeah that would be amazing! Like a build kit with art already applied. I'm sure the only issue would be cost of material and labor I'm sure they would be pretty expensive on the sale end

    Pretty sweet! Just nitpicking here, but this cabinet has the wrong speaker setup for MKII (should be 1 mid range and 1 tweeter) and the wrong coin door setup.

    11:18 where the yellow sticker is attached, what is the name of that structure that covers the monitor? and how did you get it? what material is it? Is there any way to create it? because I looked everywhere and nobody knows anything about it, the rest can be done with wood, but that casing doesn't...
