Cab building

I built a full size virtual pinball cabinet and will share my steps. Shout out to Way of the wrench, i followed his buildiong guide and adapted it to my needs. 

Way of the wrench cabinet plans and tutorial. I made my build based on his plans.

BUILDING CUSTOM WOOD LOCKBAR

I made an executive desision to make the cab wider than a standard wide body. A wide body is typically 23.5 " this one is 26.5. Two reasons, number one this was what was in the plans i was following. Number 2, my previous experience with cabs, i always had issues making the screen fit. In this wide cab, a 43" monitors fits with enough room to spare without having to remove the monitor bezel. 

​

The Issue i was facing was that a standard wide body lock bar is not going to fit. I do not own any metal bending machines so my only other option was to make it from wood.
