Overview

A Kiosk for our shop made from and old arcade cabinet. The idea grew from a desire to have a display case for projects. BUT some projects are unable to fit in a display case, so, how about a "digital display case". A computer that shows pictures and videos of our projects, accomplishments, and events.
