[QUOTE="L33, post: 210173, member: 4681"] Managed to finish of cutting all the parts for the base this afternoon. I'd almost finished last night, but ran into a problem last night as all the joints went really tight after they were cut, so I had to take a bit more off today. I also had to cut the base and decided to add a few biscuits to the top portion...not sure of all the technical term for the pieces, but I'm sure it doesn't matter too much. Seems like little progress has been made, but in all fairness, today I have what looks like the start of a pinball cabinet, where as yesterday I had 2 sheets of plywood! Just getting on with editing the first part of the video so it's not too boring to watch. I apologise in advance too, because I think adding music to the videos really helps make it more enjoyable to watch, but I once had a video questioned by Youtube as it contained copyrighted music, so after that I always make my own music via Garageband. It's a bit of fun really, though the rest of the household think otherwise. So I apologise if it's not your taste in music, but there is the option of turning the sound down. If you like Kraftwerk or Jean Michel Jarre...it's tolerable. If not, then you'll be wanting to search for that volume knob before you press play! I'll hopefully have Part 1 uploaded tomorrow and I'll post a link on here. If you enjoy part 1 I'll upload more as I progress. First ones only a few minutes long, but covers all the work involved in making the base. There's not much to show for the work involved, but then I suppose it goes to show that these cabinets aren't as simple to make as some people think...unless you're prepared to sacrifice quality etc. Anyhow, link'll be on here tomorrow.... :-) [/QUOTE]
