- Hello and welcome back to part three of my very first "How To" video! I had a great time building this arcade cabinet and I want to share that experience with you. Please leave any questions or constructive comments below and make sure to check out the linked parts list to see what I used:

Thank you for putting up these videos! I’ve got almost all my parts now and watching this before building I can see several little things I hadn’t thought of.
Looks like a fantastic video thank you so much for making this and with the three parts it's so long unlike almost all other videos
Just if you want to fix your TV problem, you can change the settings in your Pi, to force an HDMI signal. That should fix your issue as your TV does not need to detect it. You have your TV set on one input, and you force the hdmi sinal from the Pi.
Amazing job pointing out all of the faults! This is the most useful of all the videos i have seen.
You should be proud, that cabinet is really beautiful. Not just functional, but a nice piece of art that anyone would love to have in their game room...including me. Thanks for the great tutorial, especially the pauses where you point things out to watch out for.
Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Great work , nice of you to share what works and what you would have done differently. Thanks !!!
Your videos inspired me to build my own. I love how you mentioned the palm wrest for longer plays. I built a test panel for buttons with all the electronics outside of the can first so far and making adjustments adding a pad wrist wrest like at a bartop no pun intended. I also added ventilation and a super cool fan to the pi4. Just for kicks and because I love just spending money on this stuff I added a Mister and a USB kvm switch so I can go back and forth as needed. Still a long way to go.
The car HDMI and USB extenders (plus switchers) are genius - I was trying to figure out how I could easily plug in an external PC for modern games and you have just given me the answer, thanks a bunch!
It's awesome!! I learned a lot watching these 3 videos. Might I suggest though that you mount your Raspberry pi slightly raised from the panel you screwed it to. They do over heat and a little room for air would help. You can also add heat sinks to the processor to help with this. I'm in the middle of planning my own build. Your video is one of the best ones I've seen. Thanks.
Thanks! Good point, I did end up raising it up a bit later on.
Came here to say this ^ they can overheat! Also, get a raspberry pi 4, it has 2 HDMI out’s which would negate the need for a power hungry HDMI splitter! Nice build man!
This looks awesome man! I especially love the look of the plexiglass on the control panel, I"ll definitely be doing that when I build my cabinet.
Love the dimensions of this cabinet. I've found any adult-sized person using the more common bartop arcade dimensions will find it very uncomfortable after a while playing at counter-height, with the monitor mounted so close to the control console.
Definitely one of the better looking bartop arcades that I've found on UA-cam :) Good job man. How much did the whole thing cost? I'd like to make one too but I'm not sure about sawing wood with such curves, I've never done that before and not sure how to do the beveled edges.
Looks amazing! Thank you for sharing! Makes me want to go out in my garage and start building one! Hope to see more vids from you! Thank you
Hey thank you so much! I'm no full timer youtuber, but I will put out more when I can!
😗very creative👍👍👍👍
Thanks for the videos awesome guide, been looking to build one of my own. really appreciate it. great job hope you continue to make more videos.
WOW! Amazing
Stick with a computer monitor to avoid your dual switch problem. TVs aren't really made to power on with signal because they tend to always have a signal, but a computer monitor is made to go into standby once the signal ends (once you have done the initial turn on and setup).
Ah! Thanks for explaining that!
Nice work on the Bartop and the video itself.
Great job man! Way to own the mistakes you came across along the way!
How did you get everything looking so smooth? Is everything wrapped or is it all the layers of primmer? I'm really must know. lol.
Lots of high grit sanding in between many coats of spray paint
@@nicholasmuzzi4532 Thanks! I think I did it! It took about a week to get it all spayed, but I'm proud of my machine!
Great Job man!!!!
Great work!
My son watched your videos and loves the cabinet so I figured we could build one together for his birthday the only question I have is how to get the outer shape right is there any way you can help me out with this ? Thanks for your time and great video
Overall build came out nice.... thanks for leaving in the mistakes so we can avoid them (the reason I watch these videos as I plan to build a bar top soon), could have done without the lame background music though...lol.
Where did you get the decals from?
They were done at Phantom Neon- www.phantomneon.com/. They are near where I live and I talked with them in person. I know they are flexible, but I am not positive about what they will or won't do with online orders. But great overall!
You are not handy in any sense of the word. You should have had your dad make this instead. You are not ready.
