First mame cab finished
quadrider1:
I have been looking around on this forum and decided to make my own cab, Its a basic cocktail cab with two ultimark joysticks, 4/8way, each player has 6 buttons and a 21inch monitor.
I was wondering if you guys saw ant problem with the design. Be easy though because im only 17 and no carpenter lol.

That looks great for a first cab! :cheers: I'm currently building a cocktail as well with a third side to it and i hope if comes out looking even half as good! Only thing i see on first sight is ventilation. Are there any fans or vents? Your cab might not even get that hot so it might not be a problem, but its always good to have to much rather than too little. And also, have you played your cab a lot? Is the viewing angle and everything ok, or do you get neck cramps or anything? That's one of the concerns I have with my cab and i guess i wont know till i finish it. But good work, it looks very nice, the wood look is very classic, and i like your top as well, is that a plexi cover?

Very nice job, well done!

you cant see in the pic but I have holes hidden under the cab itself and its hard to see but there are holes on both sides of the cab, but the top hides it unless your eye view is only under the lip of the top. And yes that is 1/8 inch clear plexi.
Thanks guys

Nice job. Looks like you mitred the corners of the box - that's not easy to do!
