RetroBlast! contributor, donkey_kong, brought this one to our attention.

Eric Gradman made this took a regular Ikea dinner table and installed a sit down arcade cabinet in between the section where you expand the table to put more leafs in.

Eric's flickr album had this to say:

"This IKEA dinner table is expandable; it slides apart and more leaves can be inserted. When closed, it functions as a "dinner table" (that is, a place to pile my crap (temporarily relocated to the floor nearby). It can be opened to reveal a sit-down MAME cabinet.

The display is a 15" LCD I got on sale. The controls are all from Happ Controls, and they're wired to an Ultimarc I-PAC . The surfaces are lasercut acrylic. Carpentry of varying quality holds everything to the existing table frame."

Nice work Eric!
