multimedia table
« on: April 16, 2012, 07:25:20 AM »
BEGINNING 4/16/12
i need a display piece to keep my customers entertained while i do repairs in my shop.So i figured i would make a table that showed off my skills and looked good in the shop plus i wanted the customers to be able to play games or surf the web.the plan is to  throw in a jtag 360 with a 2 tb hdd.a full media center PC and a ps3 slim modded with 3.55.and i will be using the kinnect to make the table touch screen with a hack i found online.im using a 32 inch led lcd tv that i won in a local mod contest .here are a few pics so far.

I think you should stain the wood a dark maroon red. That would look very nice.
