Do you just throw a tablecloth over it, or put something else underneath?

i don't conceal, colorado is an open carry state.

seriously though, i think if i were to use a CT as a table or anything else like that that made it be out of the game room, my wife would kick my ass.
 
Right now I throw a pac-man towel over my ms. pac-man because it is in the living room right now and everyone seems to think it is a table to set anything on.

Once it moves into the game room, she will be naked for everyone to see.
 
I didn't cover the Moon Patrol when it was in the house. It because a place for plants in our guest room... then eventually got put in our storage shed.

I need more space.
 
I use my Moon Patrol cocktail table as it was intended to be used...as a cocktail table. I set glasses on it all the time. No worries...

So far, nothing has spilled...and it's been over 10 years. Probably should not have said that...

I'm with you... My "Ms. Pac-Man/Galaga" combo hosts both glasses and paper plates, as well as the occasional videogame book and my cell phone, all while it's getting played, of course...
 
In my home arcade i slide my Tapper Cocktail against the wall and put a beach towel over it until i have a arcade party, then i pull it too the middle of the room, and uncover it for play. It usually gets lots of beers on it since its in a central spot!!!!

In my apartment i keep in Dallas (i have because im there every week on business) my asteroids cocktail is used as my coffe table.... I eat on it, put beers and remote controls on it, and even prop my feet up on it.....very practical coffe table....he he

My Donkey Kong cocktail i have raised up as high as it goes then have bed risers under it to get it higher. I have barstools on either side and use it for my laptop computer desk...u can also rest your arm on it and set your beer on it while u watch tv....very handy
 
I put a couple of empty copier paper boxes on top of mine to keep the cats from hopping up onto it... :rolleyes:

I keep it safe from wear by only having the nonworking PCB in it, currently. :(
 
its a table. mine is usually covered in cats or beer bottles. the problem is when youre trying to play a game and a kitty thinks its a great idea to jump up and be the center of attention...
 
fold a blanket so it is thick, but hangs over all sides a bit, put a piece of plywood on top.

quick and easy basement workbench. I recapped more than a few monitors on top of my former popeye cocktail covered up like that.
 
I usually keep my cocktail in my pants. It stays well protected that way......But when I bring it out to play, I just just throw a table cloth over it when its not in use. Then I usually proceed to cover it in gaming debris for that force field effect. You know......that old saying," if you want to break my cocktail, your gonna have to go threw my vic 20 and about another foot of junk to get to it."
