Just finished up an Indiana Jones restoration. This System One cabinet had a lot of water damage, so I had to replace many of the pieces, like the top, back, sides, and some of the inner pieces. I decided to go with This Old Game's custom side art for this cabinet. I'm super happy with the results!

Great resto. I didn't know there was custom artwork available for this. It looks fantastic!
 
Wow! that looks great - Any tips on separating the sides from the internal parts? I'm going to have replace a side on a Deco Cassette I have, and I'm dreading it.

Yeah... it's a pain in the ass. Some cabinets are easier than others. The System 1 cabs are more involved. My best advise is to take lots of pics of the inside of the cabinet. And when taking it apart, pay close attention to where the blocking is so you can get some good measurements for where to put the blocking back on the new side. (not sure if i explained that clearly) ?
 
Thats helpful thanks!

How did you separate the internal/lateral pieces from the blocking on the sides did you pry it apart or use a cutting tool?
