Thanks Guys....
 
I really enjoy building these bartops. There a great size for people that don't have the room for a stand up arcade game.
I build custom bartops and also sell bartop kits.
The cabs are cnc machined and made of 5/8 thick melamine with the t-molding slot already cut.
The bartop kit weighs 30 pounds and it's measurements are 24 1/2 inches high, 21 1/2 inches deep, and 19 1/2 inches wide.
These bartops are great for xxx-1's and Mame.  The bartop in the pic has Mame and currently has 6000 arcade games. It has a 17' LCD monitor 1 happs competition joystick and 8 blue LED buttons. Pretty basic machine. To snaz it up i used Game Ex for the front end.. 
The customer only wants games on it so i removed the options for mp3s videos etc. 
I have sold these bartop kits on other forums and am always excited to see how they turn out.. Here is a recent pic of a bartop built by a customer..
