I know I'm hardly the first one, but I think I made a good job explaining all the required stuff I used and how to actually perform the various tasks.
You can see the end result(s) here:
The full tutorial is a 6-posts-long guide with more than 100 photos (!) of all the various building phases.
Let me know if you like it!

Re: Arcade Bartop DIY tutorial powered by RetroPie & Rasperry Pi (100+ pictures)
Very nice, really well documented. I built one a while ago now, it has a full PC inside with amp and hyperspin as the front end. Doesn't get used at all anymore. I used an I-PAC2 Keyboard Encoder worked really well. My build cost a lot more and doesn't even get used.. Wish I had done a pi one I recon it would be used more.

Love your work, just one minor little nitpick.
Your conversions are a little off when going between imperial and metric.
Part 1, Introduction: Full-Size Cabinet vs Bartop Cabinet
five-to-six feet (180/200 meters) should read as five-to-six feet (1.5/1.8 meters).
180/200 meters is a huge difference in distance.

Yeah, you're right: I changed "5-to-6 (180/200)" to "6 and above (1.8/2 meters)", so that should be fine.Moonsword wrote: ↑Fri Aug 24, 2018 1:58 amLove your work, just one minor little nitpick.
