EngineheadCW | 17 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I'm a woodworker that happens to also be a retro gaming enthusiast. I plan on designing and building various sizes, styles and colors of cartridge display racks, storage for consoles, game room decor, etc. made out of wood that are nice, sanded, stained, with good, practical design. They will probably be a little more expensive than the plastic offerings (in the same ballpark though), but I think the quality and workmanship will justify the slightly higher price. I hope to have some pics on here soon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EngineheadCW | 17 Posted May 19, 2021 Author Share Posted May 19, 2021 Oh, I'll have so many pics on here that you'll be telling me to shut up already. @darkchylde28 has already seen some pics of a display rack prototype that was made before I had the proper tools, jigs, setup, etc. My first product will be for GB, GB Color, GBA, and Sega GG size carts. I'll get everything ironed out, make new product, get proper pics, etc., then I can post some pics here for you guys, I promise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDIRunner | 2,727 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Welcome. Outside of video games, woodworking and automobile repair are my other two favorite hobbies. I've been considering starting a thread in the "Everything Else" forum about woodworking to gauge interest from others. I've been wondering if there are enough woodworkers among our group to get a good discussion going. Nice to know there is at least one more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorEncore | 3,690 Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 Welcome! Woodworking is one of my favorite hobbies for other people since I can enjoy the fruit of your labor without actually participating. I look forward to seeing what you have! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EngineheadCW | 17 Posted May 21, 2021 Author Share Posted May 21, 2021 I've also made a 2600 cart rack out of XPS foam, just to see if I could do it. It's pretty durable, and looks pretty nice. I don't think I'll be selling these, but at least I can show it to you. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ConfusedCollector | 36 Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Welcome. I dabble in woodworking as well. In all honesty, I haven't built anything nice for over a year. Everything I'm doing right now is carpentry. Trying to get our house ready to resell next year. I did build some killer game shelves from poplar though the year before last.
