    I've wanted one of these raspberry pi/retro pi arcade systems for a while but wanted to make a special box to put it in that looked like an antique table top TV/radio. I feel the outcome of this project is exactly that. The case is built out of 1/2" and 1/4" plywood, and the veneer species is mahogany that I applied using heatlock veneer glue. For the tight corners, I sprayed some supersoft veneer softener to soften the veneer up.
