Hi Dave Everything will be glued and screwed in the end to the rails. At this point some panels are just screwed as I need to take them back off. All make sense in part 3 👍
Do you have a Arcade crt/Crt tv? My setup is Arcade power supply which powers up arcade monitor a 4 way power socket which is hooked up to the arcade power supply for PC,Speakers,marquee light and the Ultimate Scart adapter for TV hook up. So if you have your arcade power supply hooked up to a switch it will power on everything.👍
@AndysArcade I don't have arcade crts unfortunately. In case it might help someone else I'll share what I've come up with using a sony trinitron and utilizing one momentary pushbutton. If I Wire that switch across the original micro switch from the TV I can turn on the tv from the front of the cabinet. I will have the tv plugged into the master outlet on an " Energy saving" power strip so that when the tv is turned on with that pushbutton, that inturn turns on the other outlets on my power strip which will power my PC, my WLED lights, marquee light, and the audio amplifier. I run BigBox on the pc which can set up as "shell" instead of windows so it boots directly into my frontend. Bam! One switch turns it all on. I shut down the system through the frontend(bigbox), and then hit the pushbutton to kill the crt.
Btw, thanks Andy. You got me started in this hobbie with your videos. Ive built a cocktail and a huge 4player so far. I have collected enough sets to build about half a dozen more. I get recycled pc's from a bin where i work for free and fix them up for this. Your videos gave me inspiration for a lot of what I've done.
Don’t suppose you have acquired plans to make a rotating mechanism for your arcade crt yet? I’m really struggling to work it all out on my project. Do you also have an email/ number I can contact you on? I’m also based in UK.
Hi buddy yeah No problem mate Email me at andysarcade74@gmail.com Also you can find it on my homepage on RUclips. I do have the dimensions for the rotating monitor wheel which I have started on if that will help? Give me an email and we can go from there👍

How do you make the cabinet easy to start up. I'm having a hard time figuring out how to turn on the crt with everything else all at once.
