Zu has always wanted to build a bartop arcade, but never got around to it until now. With a twoday timeframe and almost zero experience with woodworking, can he build a working arcade cabinet without losing any fingers or what's left of his fragile sanity? Join us and watch through all the trials and tribulations as Zu builds his very first arcade in his garage and backyard. No fancy shop or expensive tools required!

If you like this sort of nonsense, remember to like and subscribe so Zu can buy more MDF and nails!
