MAMEing in a Winter Wonderland

It rained this morning. Then it sleeted (slate?). Before we knew it, we were drilling joystick bolt holes in this:

Snow aside, we managed to get a fair amount done. We got the casters on (two turny, two not turny) making it much more easy to maneuver:

We also got the speaker panel installed and puttied the screw holes:

Some brainstorming work went into today as well. We finally came up with a solution for installing the marquee graphic and acrylic. It involves cutting the "ribbing" out of the t-molding and gluing it on, for a much cleaner seam (and less Dremeling of MDF).

We are not done for the day. The Dremel's battery is currently charging, after which we are going to finish routing out the spaces to countersink the joysticks. Tonight will be devoted to installing/wiring buttons and joysticks (and consequently applying the CP graphic).
