NES Final update

Heyo everyone!

Here is the last post on my NES project, I posted links to all the steps and a link to a video on YouTube if you'd like to check that out. The project was super fun and would love to make more stuff. I need to give my Dad a huge shout out for all the help. This probably would have turned out like a complete wreck without him. Anyways here is one final shot of the completed table with glass and all.


Video is HERE!




Here are links to all the steps of the project:



Thanks for following along!

NES Update #5

Heyo fellow pale kids!

Im super excited about this update because im basically finished! All I need to be 100% done is the glass for the top! I will probably have one last post on this project once I have the glass.

So everything was slowly winding down to the end and there are just a bunch of small things to do. I threw on the paint for the trunk, did a nice two tone paint job :p


I but some wood blocks on the inside of the walls of the lid so I can put a lid on the back to hide all the buttons and wiring. It will look soooo much cleaner and finished with this backing.


And here is the backing. Cllleeaaannn.


Like I said my previous post I said I was to get the decals from a professional place and thats what I did. Im very very glad I went that route because they look amazing! Once the decals were on I clear coated the whole thing and it was time to start putting things together!


I put the hinge on and put a chain on so the lid doesn't go flying back when its opened.


And here are a few shots of the finished product, minus the glass. Enjoy! I'll post one more blog about the table then ill be moving on to new projects, hopefully just as cool :P







While you're ogling and awing at the table give my pals The Forerunner a listen!
