Looks awesome! Care to update your post to tell us a little more about it? What internals are you running on? Is that cherry? What material are you using for the face frame and how did you mount it?

For sure!

It is indeed cherry. Good eye! The front is birch plywood, painted with a water based lacquer. It is glued on "shelves", which are glued to the side on the inside of the cabinet. The screen'is screwed on to those shelved as well.

It runs a retro-pie, and a 2-player Xin-Mo microcontroller, so nothing special there really.
